Fix Unused Resource Preconnects
Medium Impact+8 points estimated
Why It Matters
Three unused preconnect hints waste browser resources and delay connections to actually needed origins like your image CDN.
How to Fix
Remove preconnect links for scripts.sirv.com, googletagmanager.com, and google.com from your theme's header.php or through your SEO plugin. Keep only the fonts.gstatic.com and osianeti.sirv.com preconnects that are actually used.

AI Performance Analysis
This WordPress site has poor performance with a score of 66/100, indicating significant user experience issues. The biggest problem is extremely slow image loading, with the Largest Contentful Paint taking 7.2 seconds - far exceeding Google's recommended 2.5 seconds. The site could save 664 KiB by compressing images better and implementing proper responsive images, which would reduce load times by nearly 2 seconds. Additional quick wins include fixing unused CSS (29 KiB savings), optimizing cache settings (109 KiB savings), and removing unnecessary preconnect hints that aren't being used.

Remove Unused Elementor CSS
High Impact+18 points estimatedWhy It Matters:
76% of your CSS (29KB) is unused, slowing down initial page rendering and contributing to poor Speed Index of 4.1 seconds.
