Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.3 s · 838 KiBAbout 838 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.3 s faster on a phone.
7,096 HTML elements
The page has 7,096 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Main-thread work: 7.0 s
A phone's processor spends 7.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (baqend.com, Klaviyo and Kameleoon and others), adding 2.2 MB and 992 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
500 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 163 KiB25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (163 KiB).
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 303 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
baqend.com adds 287 ms
287 msbaqend.com costs a phone 287 ms of main-thread work and 111 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Klaviyo adds 207 ms
207 msKlaviyo costs a phone 207 ms of main-thread work and 533 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Shopify adds 143 ms
143 msShopify costs a phone 143 ms of main-thread work and 693 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Usercentrics CMP adds 36 ms
36 msUsercentrics CMP costs a phone 36 ms of main-thread work and 491 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 52 KiB2 images could be 52 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 27 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 27 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
69 KiBAbout 69 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Duplicated JavaScript
40 KiB40 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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.

Core Web Vitals
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.
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.9 s
13.9 sYour largest element takes 13.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 25.5 s
25.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 25.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 12.4 s
12.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 12.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user LCP: 2.6 s
2.6 sReal visitors wait 2.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Total Blocking Time: 567 ms
567 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 567 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
15 images without width and height
15 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 12% slower for real visitors
+12%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 176 ms to 199 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+4%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.1 s to 2.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.7 MB in 389 requests
5.7 MBYour homepage downloads 5.7 MB in 389 requests on a phone: other files 2.2 MB (158), scripts 2.1 MB (138) and images 1,023 KiB (53). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Navi_Mobil_1000x1200_StarterKit_V2.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image far larger than shown
34 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example DHL.svg at 185 px wide, shown at 38 px. Resized copies would save about 34 KiB.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (55 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit
1.61 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.61 g of CO₂e: 193.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

8 tap targets too small
8 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
6 text elements with low contrast
6 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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.
9 links without text
9 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (8 elements).

54 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 61 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 54 passed and 7 failed. 6 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

https://www.esn.com/pages/neu-hier, https://www.esn.com/collections/protein-bestseller and https://www.esn.com/collections/veganes-proteinpulver have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
