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
Reduce unused JavaScript
8.2 s · 1.5 MBAbout 1.5 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 8.2 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
7.2 s54 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 7.2 s.
Reduce unused CSS
2.4 s · 528 KiBAbout 528 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 453 KiB80 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (453 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 48
48/100Your mobile performance score is 48. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Legacy JavaScript
600 ms · 142 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 142 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
550 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 550 ms).
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 419 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Main-thread work: 2.3 s
A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 391 KiB and 304 ms of main-thread time.
Document request latency
44 KiBThe HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
Minify JavaScript
10 ms · 19 KiB19 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Improve image delivery
18 KiB3 images could be 18 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.
Minify CSS
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Server response: 205 ms
205 msYour server sent the HTML in 205 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Largest Contentful Paint: 23.5 s
23.5 sYour largest element takes 23.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “ENGAGER, combien ça COÛTE ? Je calcule le coût du premier t…”.
Time to Interactive: 25.1 s
25.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 25.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 14.9 s
14.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 14.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 6.5 s
6.5 sThe first text or image appears after 6.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user LCP: 2.8 s
2.8 sReal visitors wait 2.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user TTFB: 804 ms
804 msReal visitors wait 804 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Total Blocking Time: 338 ms
338 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 338 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 10% slower for real visitors
+10%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 147 ms to 163 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
-4%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.3 s to 3.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.5 MB in 92 requests
4.5 MBYour homepage downloads 4.5 MB in 92 requests on a phone: scripts 2.7 MB (17), images 783 KiB (17) and stylesheets 632 KiB (42). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (22 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit
1.27 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.27 g of CO₂e: 152.0 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
8 text elements with low contrast
8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
ARIA commands must have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
4 links without text
4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
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.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (7 elements).
1 checks passed
41 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: 41 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
Only 0 internal links
The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
1%A phone browser shows 752 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 10. 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.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.ucm.be/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.
Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and description; contact details would complete it.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen

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