Custom fonts delay content visibility by 80ms and cause layout shifts during font loading.
Add font-display: swap to DM Sans font files in your theme CSS. Preload critical font weights (Regular, Bold, Medium) in WordPress header. Use font-face declarations with font-metric overrides to prevent layout shifts during font swapping.

This WordPress site has poor performance with a score of 52/100. The biggest problem is excessive JavaScript execution taking 1.7 seconds, which is blocking the main thread and severely delaying page interactivity to 25 seconds. The site is also suffering from render-blocking CSS files that could save 3.3 seconds if properly deferred, and oversized images wasting 170KB of bandwidth. Optimizing JavaScript delivery, deferring non-critical CSS, and compressing images could improve your score by 30+ points and dramatically reduce loading times from the current 6-second Largest Contentful Paint.
Why It Matters:
Render blocking CSS delays First Contentful Paint by 3.3 seconds, severely impacting user experience.
How to Fix:
Install Autoptimize or WP Rocket to defer non-critical CSS. Inline above-the-fold CSS for Elementor widgets. Remove unused FontAwesome CSS (99% unused) and load only required icon sets. Defer Elementor frontend CSS until after initial paint.
Why It Matters:
JavaScript execution takes 1.7 seconds and blocks user interactions, creating a 640ms Total Blocking Time.
