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
1.8 s · 2.8 MB89 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.8 MB).
Render-blocking requests
2.5 s49 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.
Mobile performance score: 72
72/100Your mobile performance score is 72. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
683 KiB14 images could be 683 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 88 KiBAbout 88 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 59 KiBAbout 59 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
google.com adds 0 ms
0 msgoogle.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 384 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.
Font display
250 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 250 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 32 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 32 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 97 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify CSS
70 ms · 20 KiB20 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (Cloudflare, cineca.it and google.com), adding 469 KiB and 7 ms of main-thread time.
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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.7 s
A phone's processor spends 0.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 221 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 5 ms
5 msYour server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.2 s
5.2 sYour largest element takes 5.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Slider home canale Sant'Agostino”.
First Contentful Paint: 2.9 s
2.9 sThe first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 5.2 s
5.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 5.3 s
5.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 5.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
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) held steady for real visitors

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.2 MB in 94 requests
4.2 MBYour homepage downloads 4.2 MB in 94 requests on a phone: images 3.6 MB (33), fonts 225 KiB (4) and scripts 186 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 1.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
3 images far larger than shown
790 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example APP_CAREER_DAY_2026_2048x1368.png at 1,600 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 790 KiB.
5 images in older formats
5 images (2.0 MB) 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.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
APP_CAREER_DAY_2026_2048x1368.png 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).
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (83 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.18 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.18 g of CO₂e: 141.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
29 tap targets too small
29 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
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.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 19 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 8 failed. 3 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 structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Meta description is long (299 characters)
Your meta description is 299 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
156 internal links, 41 external
The homepage links to 156 pages on unibg.it and 41 external pages.
4 checks passed
Title: 41 characters
Your title is a healthy 41 characters: “Università degli studi di Bergamo | UniBg”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.unibg.it/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.unibg.it/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.unibg.it/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 (641 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
https://www.unibg.it/language-switcher declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
2 pages share a title
/ and https://www.unibg.it/language-switcher all use the title “Università degli studi di Bergamo | UniBg”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
13 pages without a meta description
https://www.unibg.it/rubrica, https://www.unibg.it/node/15273, https://www.unibg.it/webmail, https://www.unibg.it/ateneo, https://www.unibg.it/ateneo/chi-siamo and https://www.unibg.it/ateneo/organizzazione-e-struttura and 7 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
https://www.unibg.it/language-switcher has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page slow to respond
https://www.unibg.it/studiare/perche-scegliere-unibg took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 95 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
3 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
No linked page is hidden from search
None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.
Every page has a title
All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.
Best practices
7 small tap targets
7 of 29 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
2 JavaScript errors while loading
2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Refused to apply style from 'https://www.unibg.it/libraries/splide/dist/css/splide-core.min.css?tnvrgq' because its MIM…”.
1 low-resolution image
1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 3 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 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 375 words of copy
The homepage carries about 375 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Start Cup Competition 2026”.
1 call to action
The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Start Cup Competition 2026”.
3 short forms
3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Matomo and Cloudflare Web Analytics.
Privacy and tracking
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.
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 unibg.it, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
