Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 392 KiBAbout 392 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51 (desktop: 71). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and cdn-cookieyes.com and others), adding 942 KiB and 623 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 475 ms
475 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 475 ms of main-thread work and 510 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.
Main-thread work: 2.8 s
A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
1,656 HTML elements
The page has 1,656 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
200 ms · 67 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 67 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 209 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
79 KiBAbout 79 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
10 KiB2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (10 KiB).
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.

Server response: 106 ms
106 msYour server sent the HTML in 106 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 12.5 s
12.5 sYour largest element takes 12.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We gebruiken cookies om uw browse-ervaring te verbeteren, g…”. Most of its time is element render delay (5.5 s).
Speed Index: 9.8 s
9.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 14.0 s
14.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 14.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
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.
Total Blocking Time: 321 ms
321 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 321 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
24 images without width and height
24 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.111
0.111The layout shifts by 0.111 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
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.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.1 MB in 111 requests
2.1 MBYour homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 111 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (40), images 788 KiB (31) and HTML 121 KiB (1). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (708 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.61 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.61 g of CO₂e: 72.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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
22 text elements with low contrast
22 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (1 element)
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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 (2 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 37 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 6 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

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://wearenew.nl/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
