How to optimize myworks.software
The LCP image lacks priority hints and proper discovery, significantly delaying page load completion.
Add fetchpriority='high' to the main banner image at home-banner-pic-1.webp. Remove lazy loading from above-the-fold images by excluding them from your lazy loading plugin settings. Resize the image to match display dimensions (412x241) to save 11KB bandwidth.
A score of 62 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 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.

This WordPress site has poor performance with a score of 62/100, indicating significant user experience issues. The biggest problem is an extremely slow Largest Contentful Paint of 8.4 seconds, caused by render-blocking CSS files that delay initial page rendering by over 3 seconds and oversized images that aren't properly optimized for their display dimensions. The site is also loading excessive unused JavaScript (178 KiB) and CSS (25 KiB) from various plugins and tracking scripts, further slowing down the page. Prioritizing the removal of render-blocking resources, optimizing image sizes, and reducing unused code could potentially improve the performance score by 30+ points and dramatically enhance user experience.
Why It Matters:
Multiple CSS files are blocking initial render for 3.15 seconds, preventing content from displaying quickly.
How to Fix:
Use WP Rocket or Autoptimize to inline critical CSS for above-the-fold content. Defer non-critical CSS files like FontAwesome and Elementor icons using loadCSS or async loading. Move custom CSS files (15724.css, 15738.css) to load after initial render.
Why It Matters:
Google Tag Manager and tracking scripts consume 178KB and 1.1 seconds of processing time unnecessarily.
How to Fix:
Use Google Tag Manager's built-in triggers to load conversion tracking only when needed. Implement Partytown or defer Google Analytics with gtag('config') after page load. Remove unused GTM triggers and consolidate multiple tracking scripts into a single container.
