Speed

9 to fix42
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.5 s · 567 KiB

    About 567 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    2.4 s · 657 KiB

    8 images could be 657 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 42

    42/100

    Your mobile performance score is 42 (desktop: 56). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 16 long tasks on the main thread

    16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 415 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 6 third-party services on the page

    6 third-party services load with your homepage (Usercentrics CMP, Trust Pilot and datadoghq-browser-agent.com and others), adding 1.2 MB and 229 ms of main-thread time.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    300 ms · 33 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 33 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.

  • Cloudinary adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    Cloudinary costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 652 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    94 KiB

    32 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (94 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    18 KiB

    About 18 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 64 ms

    64 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 64 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.0 s

    13.0 s

    Your largest element takes 13.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “FINN Auto Abo”.

  • Time to Interactive: 14.7 s

    14.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 14.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.3 s

    9.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 868 ms

    868 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 868 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user INP: 387 ms

    387 ms

    Real visitors wait 387 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 30% slower for real visitors

    +30%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.4 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.7 s

    2.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 3 images without width and height

    3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Tap response (INP) got 19% slower for real visitors

    +19%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 347 ms to 419 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors wait 1.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

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

  • Real-user FCP: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 635 ms

    635 ms

    Real visitors wait 635 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix60
  • 1 image over 500 KB

    3acfe380-cbc3-11f1-9c9f-5f45175b69bf-Opt-3-mobile-4.jpg weighs 506 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • Page weight: 2.8 MB in 160 requests

    2.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.8 MB in 160 requests on a phone: scripts 1.4 MB (70), images 873 KiB (41) and other files 217 KiB (30). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (506 KiB) is 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.

  • 7 images below the first screen load straight away

    7 images further down the page (243 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.78 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.78 g of CO₂e: 93.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 10096
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (30 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 30 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 26 links without text

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

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (2 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 84 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 48 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 2 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

Google 100100
  • 168 internal links, 16 external

    The homepage links to 168 pages on finn.com and 16 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 149 characters

    Your meta description is 149 characters: “Entdecke ultimative Flexibilität mit dem Auto Abo von FINN. ✓Traumauto im Rundum-Sorglos-Paket ✓Haustürlieferung ➤ Jetz…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Pläne ändern sich.Dein Auto zieht mit.”.

  • Title: 51 characters

    Your title is a healthy 51 characters: “FINN: Einfach Auto fahren zum monatlichen Fixpreis!”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.finn.com/de-DE.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: FAQPage, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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.finn.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

3 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,052 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 2 linked pages hidden from search

    /de-DE/subscribe/deals and /de-DE/b2b-small are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 2 pages share a title

    /de-DE/b2b and /de-DE/b2b-small all use the title “Auto Abo Gewerbe: Firmenflotte flexibel skalieren | FINN”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 4 pages share a meta description

    /de-DE/subscribe and /de-DE/subscribe/14-days use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 103 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to script at 'https://accounts.google.com/gsi/client' from origin 'https://www.finn.com' has been blocked by COR…”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    55 of 65 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • 2 redirects before the homepage

    Opening https://finn.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.

  • security.txt has expired

    Your security.txt expired on 2026-08-31, so researchers may not trust its contact details.

8 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (66 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for finn.com and is valid for another 66 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

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

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • HSTS enabled

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

  • http:// redirects to https

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

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 53 links work

    All 53 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 13 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    finn.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

    finn.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 30 years old

    30 years

    finn.com was registered in Jun 1996 through Amazon Registrar, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Jun 2027

    finn.com is registered until Jun 2027.

Content and conversion

4 to fix50
  • No call to action on the first screen

    On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • No direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • 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 1,147 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,147 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (3 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 50 customer or partner logos and 1 trust badge.

Email authentication

95
  • Email authentication score: 95/100

    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.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: reject

    DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:mail.zendesk.com include:trustpilotservice.com include:trustpilotmail.com includ…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 8 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 8 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

2 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Usercentrics

    A consent management tool (Usercentrics) 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).
