How to optimize happythoughts.global
Image carousel is serving oversized images (1125x705) for small display dimensions (223x140), wasting 243 KiB in bandwidth.
In WordPress, edit your Elementor image carousel settings and enable 'Custom Image Sizes'. Generate multiple image sizes using WordPress's add_image_size() function or a plugin like EWWW Image Optimizer. Update the carousel to use srcset attributes for responsive delivery.
A score of 99 falls in the "Good" range (50-89). While it is better than poor (0-49), you should aim for 90+ to provide an optimal user experience and maximize SEO benefits.
This site is slower than approximately 35% of similar sites. The main issues affecting performance are image optimization, JavaScript execution time, and layout stability.
Addressing these issues could improve your conversion rate by 15-20% and boost your search engine rankings.

Measures visual stability - how much content shifts during page load
This WordPress site has excellent performance with a score of 99/100, but there are still some optimization opportunities. The biggest issue is oversized images in the image carousel that are wasting 243 KiB of bandwidth - these images are being served at much larger dimensions (1125x705) than needed for display (223x140). The site also has 10 KiB of unused CSS and images without explicit width and height attributes that could cause layout shifts. Implementing responsive images and adding proper image dimensions would eliminate the remaining performance gaps and ensure consistently fast loading times.
Why It Matters:
Missing image dimensions cause layout shifts as images load, potentially degrading Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) scores.
How to Fix:
Edit your Elementor image carousel widget settings and add explicit width='137' height='90' attributes to each image. Alternatively, install a plugin like Specified Image Dimensions that automatically adds these attributes. Ensure your theme CSS uses aspect-ratio to maintain responsive behavior.
Why It Matters:
Nearly 100% of loaded CSS (10 KiB) goes unused, creating unnecessary network overhead and blocking render.
How to Fix:
Install Asset CleanUp or Perfmatters plugin to identify and disable unused CSS from inactive plugins. Use WordPress's wp_dequeue_style() function to remove specific unused stylesheets. Consider critical CSS extraction to inline above-the-fold styles and defer the rest.
