Preload Critical Web Fonts
High Impact+12 points estimated
Why It Matters
Font loading causes significant layout shifts (CLS: 0.133) affecting multiple page elements and user experience.
How to Fix
Add <link rel='preload'> tags for Montserrat and Crimson Text fonts in your WordPress theme's header.php. Use font-display: swap in CSS to show fallback text immediately. Consider using a plugin like OMGF to host Google Fonts locally and reduce external requests.

AI Performance Analysis
This WordPress site has good performance with a score of 81/100, but web fonts are causing significant layout shifts that hurt user experience. The biggest issue is that multiple Google Fonts (Montserrat and Crimson Text) and FontAwesome icons are loading after the page content, causing elements to jump around with a Cumulative Layout Shift score of 0.133. Additionally, the site is loading 74KB of unused JavaScript and 53KB of unused CSS from the Divi theme, plus an oversized logo image that's 51KB larger than necessary. Optimizing font loading with proper fallbacks and reducing unused code could improve both visual stability and loading speed significantly.
Other Optimization Recommendations
Optimize Logo Image Size
High Impact+8 points estimatedWhy It Matters:
Your header logo is 980x463px but displays at only 245x116px, wasting 51KB of bandwidth and slowing LCP.
How to Fix:
Replace the current logo with a properly sized version (245x116px) or use WordPress responsive images. Install ShortPixel or Smush to automatically generate appropriately sized images. Add width='245' height='116' attributes to prevent layout shift.
Remove Unused Divi CSS/JavaScript
Medium Impact+6 points estimatedWhy It Matters:
84% of your CSS (52KB) and 66% of Divi JavaScript (74KB) is unused, slowing down page load times.
How to Fix:
Install Asset CleanUp or Perfmatters to disable unused Divi modules on this page. Use Divi's performance settings to disable unused animations and effects. Consider switching to a more optimized theme if Divi bloat continues affecting performance.
