Render-blocking requests
2.5 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.1 s · 161 KiBAbout 161 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.
Mobile performance score: 61
61/100Your mobile performance score is 61 (desktop: 85). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Font display
850 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 850 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 76 KiBAbout 76 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.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Usercentrics CMP, g1980843350.co and MyFonts and others), adding 802 KiB and 600 ms of main-thread time.
Usercentrics CMP adds 600 ms
600 msUsercentrics CMP costs a phone 600 ms of main-thread work and 256 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.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 521 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
450 ms · 35 KiB4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (35 KiB).
2,867 HTML elements
The page has 2,867 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Main-thread work: 2.4 s
A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
ffycdn.net adds 0 ms
0 msffycdn.net costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 544 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.
Improve image delivery
230 KiB5 images could be 230 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
11 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 11 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Time to Interactive: 7.2 s
7.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.0 MB in 82 requests
2.0 MBYour homepage downloads 2.0 MB in 82 requests on a phone: images 906 KiB (27), fonts 685 KiB (25) and scripts 375 KiB (19). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
slider_halbleiter_1920x730_headervisualdesktop.jpg 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 in older formats
4 images (291 KiB) 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.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.58 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.58 g of CO₂e: 69.5 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
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
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.
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.
4 links without text
4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5, h3 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 31 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
28 links crawlers can't follow
28 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
310 internal links, 142 external
The homepage links to 310 pages on witzenmann.com and 142 external pages.

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.witzenmann.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.
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

2 pages share a title
