Speed

11 to fix45
  • Render-blocking requests

    7.0 s

    18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 7.0 s.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    4.5 s · 887 KiB

    9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (887 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.2 s · 284 KiB

    About 284 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 45

    45/100

    Your mobile performance score is 45 (desktop: 48). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (mews.com, guestplan.com and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 3.2 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    750 ms · 852 KiB

    About 852 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    800 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 800 ms).

  • mews.com adds 483 ms

    483 ms

    mews.com costs a phone 483 ms of main-thread work and 1.6 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.

  • guestplan.com adds 301 ms

    301 ms

    guestplan.com costs a phone 301 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 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.

  • 7 long tasks on the main thread

    7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 413 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 3.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 7 KiB

    7 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    23 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 23 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.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 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.

  • First Contentful Paint: 8.2 s

    8.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 8.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 19.4 s

    19.4 s

    Your largest element takes 19.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We gebruiken cookies om uw browse-ervaring te verbeteren, g…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 31.0 s

    31.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 31.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.2 s

    8.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user INP: 218 ms

    218 ms

    Real visitors wait 218 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 468 ms

    468 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 468 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 6 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +7%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 134 ms to 146 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

6 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    Real visitors wait 2.0 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: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 306 ms

    306 ms

    Real visitors wait 306 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 10% faster for real visitors

    -10%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.9 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.007

    0.007

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.007, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 16.4 MB in 112 requests

    16.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 16.4 MB in 112 requests on a phone: media 11.1 MB (1), scripts 2.6 MB (43) and fonts 991 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (32 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 4.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    4.66 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.66 g of CO₂e: 559.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • 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 8692
  • 2 text elements with low contrast

    2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 2 tap targets too small

    2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Frames without titles

    1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.

  • 8 links without text

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 9 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 40 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: 40 passed and 4 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10080
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is short (17 characters)

    Your title is only 17 characters: “Home - De Librije”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 38 internal links, 13 external

    The homepage links to 38 pages on librije.com and 13 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 118 characters

    Your meta description is 118 characters: “Welkom bij De Librije, waar gastronomie en gastvrijheid samenkomen in een wereld vol creativiteit en verfijnde smaken.”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.librije.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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.librije.com/sitemap_index.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 (251 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 15 pages without an H1

    /eten, /slapen, /eten/private-dining, /librijes-kadootje, /de-librije and /reserveren and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 20 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 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.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 7785
  • 16 small tap targets

    16 of 38 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Error: <svg> attribute viewBox: Expected number, "0 0 100% 24".”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix42
  • 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 social proof

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

  • Only about 224 words

    The homepage has only about 224 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Meta Pixel and Cloudflare Web Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (CookieYes) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 20 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 20 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: CookieYes

    A consent management tool (CookieYes) loads with the page.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at librije.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
