Compress Header Logo Image
Medium Impact+8 points estimated
Why It Matters
The header logo is 21 KB oversized for its display dimensions, impacting LCP and initial paint.
How to Fix
Resize the logo image to actual display size (245x116px) instead of serving 768x363px version. Use WebP format and compress with TinyPNG. Update the WordPress media library with optimized version.

AI Performance Analysis
This WordPress site has good performance with a score of 79/100, but has room for improvement. The biggest issue is web fonts loading late in the page load process, causing significant layout shifts (CLS of 0.115) as text reflows when fonts finish downloading. The site is also carrying 72KB of unused JavaScript and 52KB of unused CSS from the Divi theme, which contributes to slower load times with First Contentful Paint at 3.2 seconds. Implementing font-display: swap, preloading critical fonts, and removing unused theme code could easily push this site into the 85+ performance range while eliminating the jarring layout shifts users experience.
Other Optimization Recommendations
Fix Web Font Layout Shifts
High Impact+15 points estimatedWhy It Matters:
Web fonts cause 0.115 CLS score by shifting text during load, significantly hurting user experience.
How to Fix:
Add font-display: swap to all @font-face declarations in your Divi theme. Use rel='preload' for critical fonts (Montserrat, Crimson Text) in the <head>. Consider using system fonts as fallbacks with similar metrics to reduce layout shift.
Optimize Divi Theme JavaScript
High Impact+12 points estimatedWhy It Matters:
Unused JavaScript from Divi totals 72 KiB, slowing down page interactivity and blocking main thread.
How to Fix:
Install Divi Booster or use Asset CleanUp Pro to disable unused Divi modules and scripts. Remove sticky-elements.js if not using sticky functionality. Consider switching to Divi's static CSS/JS generation in theme options.
