Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.6 s · 515 KiBAbout 515 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.6 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.6 s5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
Improve image delivery
650 ms · 585 KiB14 images could be 585 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 650 ms faster on a phone.
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
600 ms · 142 KiBAbout 142 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
500 ms · 91 KiB24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (91 KiB).
2,485 HTML elements
The page has 2,485 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 124 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.
Minify JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
1 third-party service on the page
1 third-party service load with your homepage (niceincontact.com), adding 4 KiB and 1 ms of main-thread time.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.6 s
A phone's processor spends 1.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 480 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 9 ms
9 msYour server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals

First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s
2.6 sThe first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
3 images without width and height

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 89 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 89 requests on a phone: images 1.1 MB (27), scripts 998 KiB (33) and fonts 424 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
bx-overview-panoramic-city-skyline-is485896260-xcelerator-sh 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).
8 images below the first screen load straight away
8 images further down the page (417 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.84 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.84 g of CO₂e: 100.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
15 images without alt text
15 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
7 form fields without a label
7 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
1 checks passed
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 4 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (22 characters)
Your title is only 22 characters: “Siemens home | Siemens”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
10 links with vague text
10 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
55 internal links, 17 external
The homepage links to 55 pages on sw.siemens.com and 17 external pages.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 127 characters
Your meta description is 127 characters: “Siemens: A global technology leader driving innovation in industry, infrastructure and mobility through digital transfo…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “What if AI could do an engineer’s most tedious work?”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.siemens.com/en-us/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: WebPage.
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.siemens.com/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.
3 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 (1,079 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.siemens.com/llms.txt (3 KiB, 19 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 pages without an H1
https://www.siemens.com/en-us/products/tia-portal/eigen-engineering-agent, https://www.siemens.com/en-us/products/simcenter/mechanical-simulation/femap and https://www.siemens.com/en-us/products/avasis-teamcenter-medical-device-solution-tc-mds have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
2 pages with very little text
https://www.siemens.com/en-us/products and https://www.siemens.com/en-us/products/avasis-teamcenter-medical-device-solution-tc-mds have 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.

Content and conversion
