How to optimize foerderverein.badbentheim.de
Your LCP element (hero background image) is missing priority hints, causing unnecessary resource load delays of 217ms.
Add fetchpriority='high' attribute to the background image in div.video-bg. Preload the critical background image using <link rel='preload' as='image' href='background-image-url'> in the HTML head. This will make the browser prioritize loading the LCP resource immediately.
A score of 89 falls in the "Needs Improvement" range (50-89). While it is better than poor (0-49), you should aim for 90+ to provide an optimal user experience and maximize SEO benefits.
This site is slower than approximately 35% of similar sites. The main issues affecting performance are image optimization, JavaScript execution time, and layout stability.
Addressing these issues could improve your conversion rate by 15-20% and boost your search engine rankings.

Measures visual stability - how much content shifts during page load
This website has good overall performance with a score of 89/100, but has a significant issue with render delays that's hurting user experience. The biggest problem is an extremely slow "element render delay" of over 3 seconds for the main background image, which makes the page appear to load much slower than it actually is. Additionally, render-blocking CSS files are delaying the initial page display by about 1 second, and several images are unnecessarily large, wasting 107 KB of bandwidth. The site could significantly improve its Speed Index (currently 6.0 seconds) by adding fetchpriority="high" to the main background image, deferring non-critical CSS, and properly sizing images for their display dimensions.
Why It Matters:
CSS files are blocking initial render for 1,020ms, significantly delaying First Contentful Paint.
How to Fix:
Inline critical CSS for above-the-fold content directly in the HTML head. Defer non-critical CSS like templates/home.css using media='print' onload='this.media="all"' technique. Split styles.min.css to separate critical and non-critical styles for faster initial rendering.
Why It Matters:
Oversized images waste 107 KiB of bandwidth and delay LCP by 150ms with unnecessary data transfer.
How to Fix:
Resize sticker images to match their displayed dimensions (46px instead of 656px). Use responsive images with srcset for different screen sizes. Compress the team member photos further to reduce file sizes while maintaining visual quality.
