The hero banner image lacks fetchpriority='high' which could improve LCP discovery and loading speed.
Add fetchpriority='high' to your main hero banner image in the Elementor widget settings. Use WordPress 6.3+ native support or add the attribute manually to the home-banner-pic-1.webp image. Ensure this image loads eagerly without lazy loading applied.

This WordPress site has moderate performance issues with a score of 71/100. The biggest problem is extremely slow Largest Contentful Paint at 5.5 seconds, primarily caused by render-blocking CSS files that delay initial page rendering by 2.4 seconds. The site is also serving oversized images that waste 250KB of bandwidth and has 178KB of unused JavaScript from Google Analytics and Tag Manager. Fixing the render-blocking resources and optimizing image delivery could improve the score by 15-20 points and dramatically reduce load times for users.
Why It Matters:
Render blocking CSS files delay First Contentful Paint by 2.4 seconds and prevent the page from displaying content quickly.
How to Fix:
Use WP Rocket or Autoptimize to inline critical CSS for above-the-fold content. Defer non-critical CSS like Font Awesome (13KB) and table addons using media='print' onload trick. Combine multiple small CSS files to reduce HTTP requests from 20+ separate stylesheets.
Why It Matters:
Oversized carousel images waste 250KB of bandwidth and delay LCP by 150ms with poor mobile experience.
How to Fix:
Install ShortPixel or Imagify to automatically generate responsive image sizes. Add srcset attributes to carousel images that are currently 1080x1350 but display at 665x831. Enable WebP conversion in your optimization plugin to reduce file sizes by 30-50%.
