How to optimize myworks.software
Custom fonts are causing 50ms delay in First Contentful Paint and potential layout shifts during font swaps.
Add font-display: swap to all @font-face declarations for DM Sans fonts. Preload critical fonts using <link rel='preload'> in WordPress header. Consider using system fonts as fallbacks with similar metrics to reduce layout shift.
A score of 71 falls in the "Needs Improvement" 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.

Measures visual stability - how much content shifts during page load
This WordPress site has below-average performance with a score of 71/100. The biggest problem is extremely slow page interactivity, with Time to Interactive reaching 23.5 seconds, primarily caused by excessive unused CSS and JavaScript from plugins like Font Awesome and Elementor. The site is loading 25KB of unnecessary CSS and 496KB of unused JavaScript, while also suffering from render-blocking resources that delay initial content display by 1.3 seconds. Cleaning up unused code, optimizing plugin assets, and implementing proper caching could dramatically improve both loading speed and user experience.
Why It Matters:
Critical CSS and JavaScript files are blocking page render for 1.3 seconds, severely delaying First Contentful Paint.
How to Fix:
Use WP Rocket or Autoptimize to inline critical CSS and defer non-essential stylesheets. Move jQuery and other JavaScript files to load asynchronously or defer until after page render. Prioritize above-the-fold content rendering first.
Why It Matters:
Over 500KB of unused code is downloaded unnecessarily, slowing LCP by 150ms and increasing bandwidth costs.
How to Fix:
Use Asset CleanUp Pro to disable unused Font Awesome icons (99% unused) and Elementor widgets. Configure PurgeCSS to remove unused CSS rules. Audit and deactivate unnecessary WordPress plugins like redundant tracking scripts.
