JavaScript execution takes 1.7 seconds and blocks user interactions, creating a 640ms Total Blocking Time.
Defer HubSpot chat widget and Hotjar scripts until user interaction. Remove unused JavaScript from Google Tag Manager (70% unused). Use WP Rocket to combine and minify remaining scripts. Move jQuery and Elementor scripts to load after critical content.
A score of 52 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.

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:
Custom fonts delay content visibility by 80ms and cause layout shifts during font loading.
How to Fix:
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.
