Live view · interaction off

Speed

15 to fix37
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.7 s · 1.2 MB

    90 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.2 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.

  • Reduce initial server response time

    1.1 s

    Reduce initial server response time. Google estimates savings of 1.1 s on a phone.

  • Document request latency

    1.1 s

    The HTML itself could arrive about 1.1 s sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Mobile performance score: 37

    37/100

    Your mobile performance score is 37. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 6.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.1 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 (Clarity, Cloudinary and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 3.7 MB and 1.6 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    900 ms · 961 KiB

    About 961 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • 17 long tasks on the main thread

    17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 1.2 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    955 KiB

    7 images could be 955 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Cloudinary adds 485 ms

    485 ms

    Cloudinary costs a phone 485 ms of main-thread work and 3.0 MB 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.

  • Clarity adds 592 ms

    592 ms

    Clarity costs a phone 592 ms of main-thread work and 28 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 349 KiB

    About 349 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 405 ms

    405 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 405 ms of main-thread work and 530 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.

  • Server response: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Your server takes 1.2 s to send the HTML. Google recommends under 600 ms; everything else waits for it.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    11 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 11 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.

Core Web Vitals

10 to fix33
  • 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: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Real visitors wait 4.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 4.6 s

    4.6 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 4.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 3.9 s

    3.9 s

    Real visitors wait 3.9 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 24.0 s

    24.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 24.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 3.3 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 11.0 s

    11.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.2 s

    6.2 s

    Your largest element takes 6.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.12

    0.12

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.12 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • 2 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -2%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 172 ms to 171 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 154 ms

    154 ms

    Real visitors wait 154 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 28% faster for real visitors

    -28%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 5.6 s to 4.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.078

    0.078

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.078, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.6 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 5.4 MB in 189 requests

    5.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.4 MB in 189 requests on a phone: scripts 2.6 MB (74), images 2.1 MB (33) and fonts 352 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    banner-neuheiten2026-II-1920x600.8d1d4329.webp 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

    45 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example banner-neuheiten2026-II-1920x600.8d1d4329.webp at 1,920 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 45 KiB.

  • About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.53 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.53 g of CO₂e: 183.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 9196
  • 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 buttons without a name

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 31 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 43 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 1 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9290
  • Meta description is long (161 characters)

    Your meta description is 161 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 42 internal links, 11 external

    The homepage links to 42 pages on item24.com and 11 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “item Innovation Session: Modular thinking for every challenge”.

  • Title: 54 characters

    Your title is a healthy 54 characters: “item - Modular Components and Aluminum Profiles – item”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.item24.com/en-us.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Thing.

  • 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.item24.com/sitemaps/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 (733 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

5 to fix63
  • 4 pages without a title

    /en-us/categories/b3a9703f-4aa0-4f21-95ab-e9cbf3605534, /en-us/categories/4b18639f-a049-4ed5-a4ef-3342c4d3a26c, /en-us/categories/3daa5411-d50f-4f06-9696-67470dce8163 and /en-us/categories/ad64841a-3fa0-4051-bbe9-938da1c0989a have no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 4 linked pages hidden from search

    /en-us/categories/b3a9703f-4aa0-4f21-95ab-e9cbf3605534, /en-us/categories/4b18639f-a049-4ed5-a4ef-3342c4d3a26c, /en-us/categories/3daa5411-d50f-4f06-9696-67470dce8163 and /en-us/categories/ad64841a-3fa0-4051-bbe9-938da1c0989a are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 4 pages without a meta description

    /en-us/categories/b3a9703f-4aa0-4f21-95ab-e9cbf3605534, /en-us/categories/4b18639f-a049-4ed5-a4ef-3342c4d3a26c, /en-us/categories/3daa5411-d50f-4f06-9696-67470dce8163 and /en-us/categories/ad64841a-3fa0-4051-bbe9-938da1c0989a have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 11 links to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 11 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /en-us/categories/bbf42e66-b26b-4912-9200-719c117299eb, whose canonical is /en-us/shop/new-products. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 4 pages without an H1

    /en-us/categories/b3a9703f-4aa0-4f21-95ab-e9cbf3605534, /en-us/categories/4b18639f-a049-4ed5-a4ef-3342c4d3a26c, /en-us/categories/3daa5411-d50f-4f06-9696-67470dce8163 and /en-us/categories/ad64841a-3fa0-4051-bbe9-938da1c0989a have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 5 pages with very little text

    /en-us/categories/bbf42e66-b26b-4912-9200-719c117299eb, /en-us/categories/46e41ed4-24ca-4d3b-93c3-cab05f69643c, /en-us/categories/19722987-b11b-4c32-a4e3-105f5674a6ca, /en-us/categories/7fd054a0-58df-4e34-bc27-9a6370954540 and /en-us/categories/c7810c3e-f947-4300-a605-418626faa081 have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 3 pages slow to respond

    /en-us/categories/d2d35650-9962-4521-b67f-a6b6266786f4, /en-us/categories/46e41ed4-24ca-4d3b-93c3-cab05f69643c and /en-us/categories/42aebed3-ab38-4b34-a0e4-3f6143da7a0e took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 35 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10084
  • 1 broken image

    1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://www.item24.com/en-us.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

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

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    20 of 20 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

3 to fix78
  • 1 broken link to your own pages

    1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://www.item24.com/en-us/company/local-partners (404).

  • http:// does not redirect

    http://item24.com does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.

  • 1 broken external link

    1 link to other sites is dead, for example https://welcome.item24.us/trainings (404).

  • No X-Content-Type-Options

    X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

  • 2 redirects before the homepage

    Opening https://item24.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.

  • 2 links through redirect chains

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.item24.com/en-us/cart/.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

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

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (item24.com).

  • Valid certificate (59 days left)

    The certificate from GlobalSign nv-sa · GlobalSign Atlas R46 DV TLS CA 2026 Q3 verifies for item24.com and is valid for another 59 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/2

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

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    item24.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

    item24.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 21 years old

    21 years

    item24.com was registered in Jun 2005 through Key-Systems GmbH. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Jun 2027

    item24.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 social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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 539 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 539 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “SHOP”, “SIGN UP” and “Shop products now”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

Email authentication

2 to fix65
  • SPF does not block other senders (no all)

    Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 redirect=_spf.item24.com”.

  • No DKIM key on the usual selectors

    We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.

  • Email authentication score: 65/100

    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.

1 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: quarantine

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (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: 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).
