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
Render-blocking requests
2.3 s19 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.3 s.
Mobile performance score: 49
49/100Your mobile performance score is 49. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Reduce unused JavaScript
840 ms · 355 KiBAbout 355 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 840 ms faster on a phone.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and chatbase.co and others), adding 788 KiB and 1.0 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 728 ms
728 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 728 ms of main-thread work and 511 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.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 422 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Main-thread work: 2.5 s
A phone's processor spends 2.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
209 KiB7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (209 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
90 ms · 14 KiBAbout 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 90 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
23 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 23 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.

Server response: 90 ms
90 msYour server sent the HTML in 90 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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: 4.4 s

Real-user TTFB: 2.8 s

Largest Contentful Paint: 6.0 s
6.0 sYour largest element takes 6.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Na našoj web stranici koristimo kolačiće kako bismo vam pru…”.
Time to Interactive: 11.6 s
11.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 11.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 918 ms

Images and page weight
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.37 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.37 g of CO₂e: 44.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 1.3 MB in 51 requests
1.3 MBYour homepage downloads 1.3 MB in 51 requests on a phone: scripts 1,003 KiB (20), fonts 243 KiB (7) and stylesheets 51 KiB (9). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
5 buttons without a name
5 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (28 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 28 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
11 links without text
11 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 25 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (71 characters)
Your title is 71 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “ZŠEM | Najbolje visoko učilište a za ekonomiju i management u Hrvatskoj”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
101 internal links, 16 external
The homepage links to 101 pages on zsem.hr and 16 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 134 characters
Your meta description is 134 characters: “ZŠEM je najbolje visoko učilište koje nudi prijediplomske i diplomski MBA program. ZŠEM nudi mogućnost međunarodne razm…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “The Alphabet of Success.”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://zsem.hr/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage 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://zsem.hr/sitemap_index.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://zsem.hr/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 (1,221 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen

No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 693 words of copy
The homepage carries about 693 words of visible text.

11Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
