Render-blocking requests
1.1 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
7,445 HTML elements
The page has 7,445 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
750 ms · 541 KiB23 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (541 KiB).
Document request latency
1.1 MBThe HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
Mobile performance score: 50
50/100Your mobile performance score is 50 (desktop: 57). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (FontAwesome CDN, reddit and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 818 KiB and 578 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 251 KiBAbout 251 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 182 KiBAbout 182 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.
Improve image delivery
206 KiB3 images could be 206 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 39 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 39 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 179 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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: 1.9 s

Server response: 102 ms
102 msYour server sent the HTML in 102 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Largest content (LCP) got 23% slower for real visitors

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.1 MB in 57 requests
3.1 MBYour homepage downloads 3.1 MB in 57 requests on a phone: HTML 1.7 MB (1), images 512 KiB (12) and scripts 466 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (38 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.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.87 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.87 g of CO₂e: 104.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
5 text elements with low contrast
5 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
4 images without alt text
4 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (4 elements).
1 checks passed
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 1 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://www.koch-glitsch.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
3 links with vague text
3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
255 internal links, 1 external
The homepage links to 255 pages on koch-glitsch.com and 1 external page.

AI search readiness

No llms.txt
There is no https://www.koch-glitsch.com/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.
