Speed
Improve image delivery
16.9 s · 6.2 MB8 images could be 6.2 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 16.9 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
8.0 s · 3.1 MB43 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3.1 MB).
Render-blocking requests
1.5 s17 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.
Mobile performance score: 72
72/100Your mobile performance score is 72 (desktop: 72). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Optanon, userway.org and cookiepro.com and others), adding 385 KiB and 235 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
229 KiBAbout 229 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 59 KiBAbout 59 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.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 96 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).
Legacy JavaScript
26 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 26 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
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

SEO
No meta description

2 H1 headlines
