Speed

6 to fix69
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.9 s · 2.6 MB

    98 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.6 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.

  • 3,440 HTML elements

    The page has 3,440 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 69

    69/100

    Your mobile performance score is 69 (desktop: 89). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    550 ms · 355 KiB

    10 images could be 355 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 550 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 113 KiB

    About 113 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Cookiebot), adding 158 KiB and 207 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    167 KiB

    About 167 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 95 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    14 KiB

    14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    8 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 8 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Chained critical requests

    Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 426 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 118 ms

    118 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 118 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix67
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Real-user LCP: 5.0 s

    5.0 s

    Real visitors wait 5.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 4.5 s

    4.5 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 4.5 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    Real visitors wait 3.3 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Speed Index: 11.4 s

    11.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 12.3 s

    12.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 12.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.0 s

    5.0 s

    Your largest element takes 5.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below. Most of its time is resource load delay (6.6 s).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 69% slower for real visitors

    +69%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.1 s to 3.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +7%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 108 ms to 114 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 119 ms

    119 ms

    Real visitors wait 119 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Total Blocking Time: 101 ms

    101 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 101 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001

    0.001

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix68
  • Page weight: 2.8 MB in 102 requests

    2.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.8 MB in 102 requests on a phone: images 1.8 MB (70), scripts 638 KiB (21) and fonts 249 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 19 images below the first screen load straight away

    19 images further down the page (1.2 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 3 images far larger than shown

    256 KiB

    3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Thumbnail_AIMS.jpg at 3,000 px wide, shown at 340 px. Resized copies would save about 256 KiB.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (382 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.80 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.80 g of CO₂e: 95.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

17 to fixGoogle 6779
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    10 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 2 buttons without a name

    2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)

    Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    1 dropdown has no label.

  • Links look like plain text

    2 links inside paragraphs rely on colour alone to stand out.

  • Hidden but focusable

    1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • ARIA input fields must have an accessible name (1 element)

    ARIA input fields must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (52 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 52 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 8 links without text

    8 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 5 form fields without a label

    5 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 63 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 17 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8584
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • 5 links crawlers can't follow

    5 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 197 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 197 pages on csb.com and 8 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 132 characters

    Your meta description is 132 characters: “The CSB-System ERP software meets all industry-specific requirements, is upward compatible and can be flexibly expanded…”.

  • Title: 43 characters

    Your title is a healthy 43 characters: “The ERP system from the industry specialist”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.csb.com/en/the-erp-from-the-industry-specialist.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.csb.com/de/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

2 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,351 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 109 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    14 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 9283
  • 30 small tap targets

    30 of 82 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Scrolls sideways on phones

    On a 390 px-wide phone the page scrolls sideways, a sign that something is wider than the screen.

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix94
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • 3 redirects before the homepage

    Opening https://csb.com goes through 3 redirects before the homepage loads.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

8 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (csb.com).

  • Valid certificate (49 days left)

    The certificate from DigiCert Inc · GeoTrust TLS RSA CA G1 verifies for csb.com and is valid for another 49 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://csb.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 45 links work

    All 45 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 5 external) answered without errors; 9 did not answer within 5 s.

  • security.txt published

    A security.txt file tells researchers how to report a problem with your site.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    csb.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    csb.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 31 years old

    31 years

    csb.com was registered in Aug 1995 through Deutsche Telekom AG. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Aug 2027

    csb.com is registered until Aug 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix88
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 6 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • No risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

  • About 1,038 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,038 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Demo appointment” and “CONTACT”.

  • 7 calls to action

    The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Make a demo appointmentDemo appointment”, “Shop Floor Integration” and “CSB Order Picker”.

  • 5 short forms

    5 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 4 phone links and 4 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Email authentication

1 to fix75
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be csb.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

  • Email authentication score: 75/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

2 checks passed
  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 ip4:217.7.0.10 ip4:217.7.0.115 ip4:31.204.117.146 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:agenturserver.de in…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “selector2” and “k2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 2 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 2 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

2 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Cookiebot

    A consent management tool (Cookiebot) loads with the page.

  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Upkeep, stack and company

No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
