Speed

5 to fix70
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 323 KiB

    About 323 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.9 MB

    22 images could be 1.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Mobile performance score: 70

    70/100

    Your mobile performance score is 70. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    750 ms · 161 KiB

    About 161 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    200 ms · 32 KiB

    3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (32 KiB).

  • 5 long tasks on the main thread

    5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 174 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager), adding 172 KiB and 147 ms of main-thread time.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    16 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 16 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 668 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 66 ms

    66 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 66 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix67
  • 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.

  • Real-user LCP: 4.6 s

    4.6 s

    Real visitors wait 4.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 4.2 s

    4.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 4.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    Real visitors wait 2.9 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.9 s

    6.9 s

    Your largest element takes 6.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 8.3 s

    8.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 8.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 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

    -7%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 208 ms to 202 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.0 s to 4.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 140 ms

    140 ms

    Real visitors wait 140 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Total Blocking Time: 177 ms

    177 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 177 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.016

    0.016

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.016, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix38
  • Page weight: 11.0 MB in 57 requests

    11.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 11.0 MB in 57 requests on a phone: media 6.9 MB (1), images 2.7 MB (38) and fonts 612 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image over 500 KB

    fabrik_carbon-capture-teaser.png weighs 623 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 22 images in older formats

    22 images (2.5 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.

  • 16 images below the first screen load straight away

    16 images further down the page (1.8 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 3.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.10 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.10 g of CO₂e: 372.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 8091
  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    2 dropdowns have no label.

  • 9 images without alt text

    9 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (20 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 20 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 4 form fields without a label

    4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 4 links without text

    4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 39 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: 39 passed and 6 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 4659
  • Page is set to noindex

    The robots meta tag says “noindex, follow”: Google is told not to list this page at all.

  • Blocked from indexing

    Google's crawler is blocked from indexing this page.

  • Meta description is long (173 characters)

    Your meta description is 173 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 9 links with vague text

    9 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 109 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 109 pages on vega.com and 4 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Level and pressure instrumentation for the process industry”.

  • Title: 35 characters

    Your title is a healthy 35 characters: “VEGA - Level - Switching - Pressure”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.vega.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization 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.vega.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.vega.com/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.

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.

  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,095 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 15 linked pages hidden from search

    https://www.vega.com/contact, https://www.vega.com/products, https://www.vega.com/industries, https://www.vega.com/downloads, https://www.vega.com/service-and-training and https://www.vega.com/company and 9 others are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.vega.com/company/vega-worldwide has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages without an H1

    https://www.vega.com/company/about-vega and https://www.vega.com/company/blog have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://www.vega.com/company/news-and-events took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 61 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 8191
  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Synchronous `XMLHttpRequest` on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to…”).

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    52 of 59 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix69
  • 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.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • 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 818 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 818 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “email Contact”, “Register for free” and “Contact”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (2 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 2 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads 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.

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies (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.

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