SEO
Title is long (67 characters)
Your title is 67 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Metalbird – Trots gemaakt hier in Nederland – Metalbird Netherlands”.
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“Metalbird Netherlands”, “Metalbird Netherlands” and “Metalbird Netherlands”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (284 characters)
Your meta description is 284 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

The homepage links to 94 pages on metalbird.nl and 18 external pages.

Other pages
2 linked pages are broken
Your homepage links to https://www.metalbird.nl/products/metalbird-fabrieksfoutjes and https://www.metalbird.nl/products/zwaluwkoppel, which answer with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop them.
8 pages without a meta description
https://www.metalbird.nl/collections/feeders, https://www.metalbird.nl/collections/conservation-birds, https://www.metalbird.nl/collections/plant-stakes, https://www.metalbird.nl/pages/about, https://www.metalbird.nl/pages/help-center and https://www.metalbird.nl/pages/customer-reviews and 2 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 40 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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.
Only about 10 words
The homepage has only about 10 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
3 checks passed
4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “CONTACT”, “SHOP DE VOGELS” and “Neem contact”.
2 short forms
2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

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.
1 checks passed
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).
