Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.9 s · 495 KiBAbout 495 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 49
49/100Your mobile performance score is 49. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 6.3 s
A phone's processor spends 6.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.8 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 (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.6 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
950 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
750 ms · 139 KiB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (139 KiB).
Google Tag Manager adds 461 ms
461 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 461 ms of main-thread work and 690 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.
Legacy JavaScript
350 ms · 47 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 47 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
Clarity adds 368 ms
368 msClarity costs a phone 368 ms of main-thread work and 29 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
289 KiB8 images could be 289 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
2,809 HTML elements
The page has 2,809 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Klaviyo adds 232 ms
232 msKlaviyo costs a phone 232 ms of main-thread work and 356 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 45 ms
45 msShopify costs a phone 45 ms of main-thread work and 394 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 · 84 KiBAbout 84 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.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 157 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify CSS
29 KiB29 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.
Minify JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

SEO
32 links with vague text
32 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://josephinen.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

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.

llms.txt published
The site publishes https://josephinen.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a title
https://josephinen.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
https://josephinen.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages share a title
https://josephinen.com/collections/josephine and https://josephinen.com/collections/all all use the title “Josephine Collection · Josephinenhütte”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
6 pages without a meta description
https://josephinen.com/pages/newsletter, https://josephinen.com/pages/taste, https://josephinen.com/pages/kurt-josef-zalto, https://josephinen.com/pages/heritage, https://josephinen.com/blogs/stories and https://josephinen.com/customer_authentication/redirect have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
https://josephinen.com/collections/josephine and https://josephinen.com/collections/all use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
7 pages without an H1
https://josephinen.com/pages/taste, https://josephinen.com/pages/manufacture, https://josephinen.com/pages/kurt-josef-zalto, https://josephinen.com/pages/heritage, https://josephinen.com/blogs/stories and https://josephinen.com/customer_authentication/redirect and 1 other have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
