Reduce unused CSS
6.5 s · 1.3 MBAbout 1.3 MB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.5 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript

Improve image delivery
350 ms · 414 KiB11 images could be 414 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
350 ms · 61 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 61 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, WordPress Site Stats and Google Analytics), adding 189 KiB and 169 ms of main-thread time.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 107 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Duplicated JavaScript
7 KiB7 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
