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
50 ms · 530 KiB25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (530 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
30 KiBAbout 30 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
10 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 10 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
1 third-party service on the page
1 third-party service load with your homepage (Cloudflare), adding 10 KiB and 6 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.
3 checks passed
Mobile performance score: 98
98/100Your mobile performance score is 98. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

206 msReal visitors wait 206 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.002
0.002The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.002, good is under 0.1).
Speed Index: 1.9 s

Images and page weight
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (20 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit
0.16 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.16 g of CO₂e: 19.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 586 KiB in 27 requests
586 KiBYour homepage downloads 586 KiB in 27 requests on a phone: fonts 390 KiB (6), images 99 KiB (16) and HTML 49 KiB (1). That is a lean page.
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
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 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 60 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
37 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 39 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 37 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (76 characters)
Your title is 76 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Zenjob | Flexible Nebenjobs für Studierende | Moderner Personaldienstleister”.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Personal, personalisiert.” and “Dein Einsatz. Dein Job.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://www.zenjob.com/sitemap_index.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
4 links crawlers can't follow
4 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
318 internal links, 34 external
The homepage links to 318 pages on zenjob.com and 34 external pages.
5 checks passed
Meta description: 135 characters
Your meta description is 135 characters: “Zenjob ist die Job-App für Nebenjobs & Studentenjobs. Wir bringen Unternehmen, die Personal suchen & motivierte Mitarbe…”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.zenjob.com/de/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.zenjob.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: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,589 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
15 internal pages checked

Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 6 customer or partner logos. 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 1,140 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,140 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
5 calls to action
The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Call Center”.
3 short forms
3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare Web Analytics.
Privacy and tracking
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.
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 zenjob.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
