Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
50 ms · 530 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (530 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 251 KiBAbout 251 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
364 KiB4 images could be 364 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Google Tag Manager adds 265 ms
265 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 265 ms of main-thread work and 322 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.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and Google CDN and others), adding 561 KiB and 408 ms of main-thread time.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 159 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Document request latency
69 KiBThe HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
Reduce unused CSS
18 KiBAbout 18 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 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 JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

0.012The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.012, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
4 images far larger than shown
199 KiB4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example RI-Vermessung-Bau1 Roche-gal02.jpg.webp at 720 px wide, shown at 173 px. Resized copies would save about 199 KiB.
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (458 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.37 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.37 g of CO₂e: 44.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Page weight: 1.3 MB in 55 requests
1.3 MBYour homepage downloads 1.3 MB in 55 requests on a phone: scripts 576 KiB (24), images 487 KiB (9) and HTML 105 KiB (2). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 16 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 42 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 0 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
47 internal links, 12 external
The homepage links to 47 pages on rapp.ch and 12 external pages.
8 checks passed
Meta description: 135 characters
Your meta description is 135 characters: “Rapp ist eine führende Schweizer Planungs- und Beratungsgruppe, die Lebensraum und Umwelt integral gestaltet und nachha…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Startseite”.
Title: 48 characters
Your title is a healthy 48 characters: “Generalplanung, Baumanagement und mehr | Rapp AG”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.rapp.ch/de.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: LocalBusiness and Organization.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
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.rapp.ch/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Parts of the site are closed to 1 AI crawler
Your robots.txt lets Perplexity (PerplexityBot) read the homepage but closes other sections to them, so answers about those pages can't cite you.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.rapp.ch/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
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (749 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://www.rapp.ch/en and https://www.rapp.ch/it all use the title “Homepage | Rapp AG”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
1 page with very little text
https://www.rapp.ch/de/suche has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
8 pages slow to respond
https://www.rapp.ch/it, https://www.rapp.ch/de/ueber-uns/geschichte, https://www.rapp.ch/de/ueber-uns/engagement, https://www.rapp.ch/de/ueber-uns/standorte-kontakt, https://www.rapp.ch/de/wirkungsraeume/gebaeude and https://www.rapp.ch/de/wirkungsraeume/umwelt and 2 others took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.
