schufa.de website review

2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.0 s.

About 305 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 47 (desktop: 64). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (96 KiB).

2 third-party services load with your homepage (Usercentrics CMP and etracker), adding 288 KiB and 220 ms of main-thread time.

Polyfills for old browsers add 11 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 88 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 7.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “pm-restschuldbefreiung-bgh”. Most of its time is resource load delay (2.9 s).

The first text or image appears after 4.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 7.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The layout shifts by 0.266 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

The page becomes fully interactive after 7.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

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

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 87 ms to 87 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.1 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

pm-restschuldbefreiung-bgh_709x532.webp is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.27 g of CO₂e: 31.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Users should be able to zoom and scale the text up to 500%: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

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

No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

Your meta description is 213 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.

A phone browser shows 2,674 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 165. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.

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.

There is no https://www.schufa.de/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.

Large scripts ship without source maps.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

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

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

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

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 2,674 words of visible text.

Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).

Loading the homepage contacts 8 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
