Speed

4 to fix64
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.4 s · 813 KiB

    51 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (813 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 64

    64/100

    Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 136 KiB

    About 136 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 28 KiB

    About 28 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    142 KiB

    4 images could be 142 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Document request latency

    78 KiB

    The HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Minify CSS

    6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Google Fonts), adding 2 KiB and 0 ms of main-thread time.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 77 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 224 ms

    224 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 224 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix65
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.577

    0.577

    The layout shifts by 0.577 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Speed Index: 6.5 s

    6.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

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

  • 7 images without width and height

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

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

2 checks passed
  • Time to Interactive: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    The page is fully interactive after 2.9 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (218 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.

  • About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.26 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.26 g of CO₂e: 31.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 946 KiB in 54 requests

    946 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 946 KiB in 54 requests on a phone: images 387 KiB (21), scripts 278 KiB (14) and HTML 117 KiB (1). That is a lean page.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

1 to fixGoogle 10099
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 30 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 36 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 37 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 36 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10088
  • Title is short (20 characters)

    Your title is only 20 characters: “Plattform - StaffPay”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • Meta description is short (16 characters)

    Your meta description is only 16 characters: “Dienstleistungen”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • 29 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 29 pages on staffpay.io and 4 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Marktplatz für Personaldienst­leister und Serviceanbieter”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://staffpay.io/de/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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://staffpay.io/de/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://staffpay.io/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 (839 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

5 to fix74
  • 3 linked pages hidden from search

    https://staffpay.io/impressum, https://staffpay.io/datenschutz and https://staffpay.io/de/cookie-richtlinie-eu are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 6 pages share 3 titles

    https://staffpay.io/de/dienstleistungen and https://staffpay.io/dienstleistungen all use the title “Dienstleistungen - StaffPay”, and 2 other titles repeat too. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://staffpay.io/de/cookie-richtlinie-eu has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 6 pages share a meta description

    https://staffpay.io/de/dienstleistungen and https://staffpay.io/dienstleistungen use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 3 links to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 3 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://staffpay.io/dienstleistungen, whose canonical is https://staffpay.io/de/dienstleistungen. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 8 pages slow to respond

    https://staffpay.io/en, https://staffpay.io/es, https://staffpay.io/el, https://staffpay.io/dienstleistungen, https://staffpay.io/erfolgsgeschichten and https://staffpay.io/kontakt and 2 others took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 12 internal pages checked

    We fetched 12 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 12 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • Every page has a title

    All 12 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

Google 100100
3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    10 of 12 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix40
  • 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 calls to action

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

  • 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 633 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 633 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 1 email link.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening 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.

  • 1 other company contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 1 host run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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 staffpay.io, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
