- !

203 kB of HTML.

Fix: Add defer to scripts, inline critical CSS and load the rest asynchronously.

121 image(s).
99 without width/height – can cause layout shift (CLS).
92 image(s) after the first three aren't lazy-loaded.
The first image is lazy-loaded – if it's the main (LCP) image, that delays it. Don't lazy-load images visible on arrival.
39 use WebP/AVIF or responsive srcset.
Fix: Give every image width and height, lazy-load images below the fold (but not the main image) and serve WebP/AVIF.
On WordPress: Install a free image optimiser plugin (such as EWWW Image Optimizer or Smush) to shrink images and serve WebP.
