“CHECK24 is Germany's largest comparison portal and it shows — the hero is doing real work with the 2.000€ Cashback offer and a functional Baufinanzierung tool. But the cookie banner headline 'Unvergleichlich lecker' is a clever pun wasted on a consent wall, and the H1 'Unsere Vergleichsübersicht' buried deep in the page is a missed SEO and conversion opportunity for a site of this scale.”

Elevate the H1 to the hero section
▲ High ImpactQuick WinH1 tag currently placed at 'Unsere Vergleichsübersicht' deep in page body
▾
Currently
H1 is buried mid-page; hero headline is visually prominent but not semantically tagged as H1
Recommended
Make the hero headline 'Bis zu 2.000 € Cashback für Baufinanzierungen geschenkt' the H1, or add a keyword-rich H1 above the category nav
Google uses H1 as a primary relevance signal; misplaced H1 on a domain of this authority is leaving significant organic ranking potential on the table

Hero headline
Bis zu 2.000 € Cashback für Baufinanzierungen geschenkt
Bis zu 2.000 € Cashback: Jetzt Baufinanzierung vergleichen und sparen
Specificity + urgency: adds an action verb and benefit word 'sparen' to convert a passive announcement into an active invitation
Bottom page login prompt
Für das beste Vergleichsergebnis melden Sie sich bitte an.

Benefit-first framing: replaces a polite request with a value proposition; 'kostenlos' and 'Sekunden' reduce friction and increase perceived reward
H2 section header
CHECK24 – Deutschlands größtes Vergleichsportal
Deutschlands größtes Vergleichsportal — über 300 Anbieter, ein Vergleich, Ihre Ersparnis.
Social proof + specificity: the number 300 is already used for Kredit but the brand claim needs a concrete proof point to be credible, not just a superlative
Cookie banner headline
Unvergleichlich lecker
Ihre Privatsphäre, Ihre Wahl
Trust and clarity: the pun is clever but undermines trust at a critical consent moment; user-centric framing increases 'geht klar' acceptance rates by reducing perceived manipulation

The killer move

High Impact
Implement intent-based hero personalization using returning visitor signals

CHECK24 has login data and cookie history — use it to dynamically swap the hero module for returning visitors to show their last-viewed category with a personalized headline like 'Willkommen zurück — Ihre Kfz-Versicherung läuft ab März.' This single change could lift returning visitor conversion rates by 20-40% and is a capability no pure-play competitor can easily replicate.

0-3 secondsMixed
0-3s First Impression: Cookie banner dominates viewport with 'Unvergleichlich lecker' headline, partially obscuring the 2.000€ Cashback hero and Baufinanzierung tool
Brand is immediately recognizable (CHECK24 logo clear) but the cookie wall forces a decision before the value proposition is absorbed — high bounce risk for new visitors who haven't yet seen why they should stay
✓
3-8 secondsStrong
3-8s Category Exploration: After dismissing cookie banner: 11 category pills, hero cashback offer, Baufinanzierung comparison tool with dropdowns
Experienced CHECK24 users navigate directly to their category; new visitors scan the pills and recognize the breadth of the portal — the functional comparison tool signals immediate utility
✓
8-15 secondsStrong
8-15s Value Assessment: Beliebteste Vergleiche section with icons, travel destination cards, Kfz-Versicherung options, phone deals
Content density works in CHECK24's favor here — the variety of comparison categories reinforces the 'one-stop-shop' positioning and keeps users scrolling to find their specific need
✓
15-30 secondsStrong
15-30s Trust Evaluation: Ratings section showing 5.0 stars (2.7M reviews), 4.8 stars (184K reviews), 367K reviews — multiple platform ratings visible
The multi-platform rating display is genuinely impressive social proof, but it arrives too late in the journey; users who needed trust signals to engage with the hero form have already bounced or converted without them
◐
30+ secondsMixed
30s+ Decision and Conversion: Vergleichsübersicht, brand value pillars (Transparent, Vertrauenswürdig, Kostenlos, Erfahren), footer with full site map
The four brand pillars are well-chosen but text-heavy and arrive after most users have already decided; the login prompt 'Für das beste Vergleichsergebnis melden Sie sich bitte an' is passive and undersells the personalization benefit

Health check

First impression & hero
20%
7/10
Strong cashback offer and functional comparison tool, but cookie banner blocks the value proposition at the critical first-impression moment
Copy & messaging
20%
6/10
Functional and clear but largely feature-focused; benefit language and outcome-oriented copy are underused across the page
Call-to-action
15%
6/10
'Baufinanzierung finden' and 'vergleichen' CTAs are present but generic; no urgency, no benefit language, no friction reducers like 'kostenlos'
Trust & social proof
15%
7/10
Exceptional ratings data (5.0 stars, 2.7M reviews) exists but is buried below the fold where it cannot support above-fold conversion decisions
Visual design & layout
10%
8/10
Clean, consistent design system with good use of cards, whitespace, and category imagery; desktop layout is well-structured for a complex multi-vertical portal
Page structure & flow
8%
7/10
Logical content hierarchy from hero to categories to deals to trust, but H1 placement is semantically broken and trust signals arrive too late in the scroll
Technical & SEO signals
7%
8/10
PageSpeed 93 with 949ms FCP and 1.2s LCP is excellent; H1 misplacement and missing accessibility/SEO scores in metadata are the primary technical concerns
Differentiation & positioning
5%
7/10
'Deutschlands größtes Vergleichsportal' is a strong claim but relies on superlatives; the 300+ Banken stat for Kredit shows how specific proof points outperform generic claims
