scout24.com website review

Your mobile performance score is 76. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 86 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.

1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 300 ms.

A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 880 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

3 third-party services load with your homepage (Usercentrics CMP, Tealium and immobilienscout24.de), adding 259 KiB and 317 ms of main-thread time.

2 images could be 66 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (37 KiB).

About 27 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.

9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 113 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Polyfills for old browsers add 11 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

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 5.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 5.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 100 ms to 101 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 7.0 MB in 74 requests on a phone: media 6.3 MB (1), scripts 332 KiB (53) and images 144 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.98 g of CO₂e: 237.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

Documents must have <title> element to aid in navigation: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

Your page has no <title>, so Google has to invent the blue link in search results.

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

Your meta description is 178 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

The homepage links to 86 pages on scout24.com and 7 external pages.

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.scout24.com/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.

https://www.scout24.com/unternehmen/vorstand-und-leadership-team, https://www.scout24.com/reporting-2025, https://www.scout24.com/investor-relations/kapitalmarkt-story/unternehmensstrategie, https://www.scout24.com/investor-relations/kapitalmarkt-story/finanzausblick and https://www.scout24.com/investor-relations/kapitalmarkt-story/marktupdate-wohnbarometer have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://www.scout24.com/unternehmen/aufsichtsrat, https://www.scout24.com/reporting-2025 and https://www.scout24.com/investor-relations have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 69 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 of 9 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

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.

Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

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

The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

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 354 words of visible text.

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

Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
