Render-blocking CSS and JavaScript delay First Contentful Paint by 1.65 seconds, preventing users from seeing content quickly.
Defer jQuery loading using async attribute since it's not critical for initial render. Inline critical CSS from automatic.css (only the above-the-fold styles) and load the rest asynchronously. Use font-display: swap for TypeKit fonts to prevent text blocking.

This website has poor performance with a score of 59/100, indicating significant speed issues that hurt user experience. The biggest problem is an extremely slow Largest Contentful Paint of 9.8 seconds, primarily caused by an oversized hero image that takes too long to load and discover. The site is wasting 360KB of unused JavaScript from tracking scripts (Google Analytics, Facebook, TikTok), has 22KB of unused CSS, and lacks proper caching for third-party resources. Optimizing the hero image size and format, removing unused code, and implementing better caching could improve the score by 30+ points and dramatically reduce load times from nearly 10 seconds to under 3 seconds.
Why It Matters:
The LCP image has a 2.4 second load delay and is oversized by 81KB, directly impacting your Core Web Vitals score.
How to Fix:
Convert the hero image to WebP format and implement responsive images with proper srcset sizing. Ensure the LCP image is discoverable in the initial HTML by avoiding any JavaScript-based loading. Use a CDN like Cloudflare to serve optimized images automatically.
Why It Matters:
Unused JavaScript (360KB) and CSS (22KB) waste bandwidth and block processing, contributing to slow page speeds.
How to Fix:
Remove or defer Google Tag Manager and TikTok analytics until after page load using a plugin like WP Rocket. Clean up automatic.css by removing unused rules (86% is currently unused). Minify remaining CSS files to save an additional 2KB.
Once your site is optimized, maintain that speed. Use DeployHQ for zero-downtime, automated deployments—so performance fixes and updates go live safely every time, without breaking your site.
