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
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.9 s · 469 KiB38 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (469 KiB).
Improve image delivery
1.9 s · 403 KiB6 images could be 403 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 343 KiBAbout 343 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.
Render-blocking requests
1.8 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.8 s.
Mobile performance score: 66
66/100Your mobile performance score is 66. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 112 KiBAbout 112 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 221 ms
221 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 221 ms of main-thread work and 317 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.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Cookie-Script.com and Google Fonts and others), adding 376 KiB and 251 ms of main-thread time.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 139 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
5 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 5 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify CSS
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.4 s
A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 477 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 109 ms
109 msYour server sent the HTML in 109 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Largest Contentful Paint: 9.6 s
9.6 sYour largest element takes 9.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 9.6 s
9.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 9.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.3 s
6.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Largest content (LCP) got 60% slower for real visitors
+60%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.4 s to 2.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Real-user FCP: 2.1 s
2.1 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.1 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s
2.3 sThe first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 18% slower for real visitors
+18%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 102 ms to 119 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
4 checks passed
Real-user LCP: 2.3 s
2.3 sReal visitors wait 2.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user CLS: 0.03
0.03For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.03 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Total Blocking Time: 100 ms
100 msScripts block the page for only 100 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.008
0.008The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.008, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.1 MB in 45 requests
2.1 MBYour homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 45 requests on a phone: images 931 KiB (20), scripts 646 KiB (14) and fonts 403 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
sitech_corporate_2018_03-600x400.jpg 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).
5 images in older formats
5 images (538 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
3 images far larger than shown
9 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Plasmalab-1024x683.jpg at 1,024 px wide, shown at 336 px. Resized copies would save about 9 KiB.
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (287 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.59 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.59 g of CO₂e: 70.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
10 text elements with low contrast
10 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 58 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is short (17 characters)
Your title is only 17 characters: “Home - Ebert HERA”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
27 links with vague text
27 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
36 internal links, 20 external
The homepage links to 36 pages on sitech.nl and 20 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Integrated Maintenance Operations Modification Projects Turnaround Management”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.sitech.nl/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage and WebSite.
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.sitech.nl/wp-sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
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.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.sitech.nl/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
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,012 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page hidden from search
https://www.sitech.nl/engineering-services is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages share a title
/ and https://www.sitech.nl/nl all use the title “Home - Ebert HERA”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
14 pages without a meta description
https://www.sitech.nl/about-us, https://www.sitech.nl/services, https://www.sitech.nl/services/integrated-turnaround-management, https://www.sitech.nl/services/integrated-maintenance-operations, https://www.sitech.nl/services/integrated-modification-projects and https://www.sitech.nl/engineering-services and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page with very little text
https://www.sitech.nl/contact/complaint 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.
14 pages slow to respond
https://www.sitech.nl/about-us, https://www.sitech.nl/services, https://www.sitech.nl/services/integrated-turnaround-management, https://www.sitech.nl/services/integrated-maintenance-operations, https://www.sitech.nl/services/integrated-modification-projects and https://www.sitech.nl/engineering-services and 8 others took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

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.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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.
About 1,150 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,150 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Contact Menu” and “Apply now”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
1 cookie set on arrival
1Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.
6 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at sitech.nl, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
