Croatian web index · November 2026

How fast and secure Croatian websites are: November 2026

We measured the home pages of 3,478 Croatian websites in sixteen sectors: speed for real visitors, accessibility, basic SEO, security headers, visitor tracking and email protection. 77% pass Google’s speed test, but only 11% use HSTS.

Key findings

Fast, but poorly protected.

  • 77% of sites with enough traffic pass Core Web Vitals, Google’s mobile speed test for real visitors. The best sector is Primary schools (98%), the weakest news media (58%).
  • 89% of sites have no HSTS, the header that tells browsers to open the site over HTTPS only, and 93% have no enforced CSP. The best sector is Banks and insurers, where 57% of sites use HSTS.
  • 39% of sites load tracking or advertising tools before the visitor clicks anything. In the news media sector it is 82%.
  • 51% of domains have no DMARC, so receiving mail servers get no instruction about fake messages sent in the domain’s name. Only 16% have a strict policy (quarantine or reject).
  • 1% of domains use DNSSEC and 2% have a CAA record. 19% of sites run a jQuery version older than 3.5, with publicly known security flaws.

Method

How we measure.

We measure the mobile version of each site’s home page. This edition was measured between 4 November 2026 and 5 November 2026. Google PageSpeed Insights (Lighthouse 13) measures speed, accessibility, SEO, security headers and third-party tools, Google’s Chrome UX Report covers real visitors, and public DNS covers email and the domain. Our servers do not open the measured sites.

01

Speed

Core Web Vitals of real mobile visitors from Google’s Chrome UX Report (LCP, INP and CLS, 75th percentile, last 28 days). Using Google’s thresholds, each metric scores 100 (good), 50 (needs improvement) or 0 (poor). Their average makes up 70% of the score and Lighthouse Performance the remaining 30%. Sites without enough traffic for Google’s data are scored on Lighthouse alone.

02

Accessibility

Lighthouse Accessibility on mobile: contrast, image descriptions, field and button labels, page language, heading order, tap target size. Under the European Accessibility Act, which has applied since June 2025, this is an obligation for many shops and services.

03

SEO

Lighthouse SEO on mobile: title and description, status code, robots.txt, indexability, hreflang, canonical URL, descriptive link text.

04

Security

HTTPS 25 points, HSTS 25, framing protection (X-Frame-Options or frame-ancestors) 20, an enforced Content-Security-Policy 15 and jQuery 3.5 or later 15. Google’s Lighthouse reads the headers.

05

Privacy and email

Privacy 50 points: minus 8 for each tracking or advertising tool loaded before any click and minus 10 for third-party cookies. Email 50 points from public DNS: SPF 10 (+5 for -all or ~all), DMARC 10 (+15 for quarantine or reject), DNSSEC 5 and CAA 5.

The overall score is the average of the five areas, each scored from 0 to 100. We measure every site twice and keep the better result, because Lighthouse results can differ by a few points between runs. Site lists come from public sources (Wikidata for cities, municipalities, counties, hospitals, higher education, companies, culture, sport and associations, the Ministry of Science, Education and Youth’s open data for schools, official websites for government bodies) and from Ahrefs traffic estimates for shops, tourism, media, banks and insurers. We did not measure websites we built or run. Sites of companies and institutions we work with commercially count towards the percentages but are not named in the rankings.
