How to Improve LCP on Desktop?

Hello,
This is funny. I had a stress time improving the LCP and LCP metrics for mobile and now after some time, GSC is showing that LCP on Desktop needs improvement, which whenever I check it has stellar marks.
I read somewhere in your guide that you recommend two plugins for improving pagespeed but can't find them now.
Can you tell me how can I improve LCP?
I'm using LiteSpeed cache for the protocol.
Hi Georgi,
I tried testing your site, and on desktop, your site’s scores are good. See: https://share.getcloudapp.com/BluWyzrn
Mobile LCP needs an improvement though.
You can try using a CDN so that resources are served faster to your site viewers. Commonly suggested are Cloudflare and BunnyCDN.
Hi Fernando,
I've thought about using CDN but it's a local domain and 90%+ of the traffic is from one country. The hosting is also from the same country.
Are there other options?
Hi Georgi,
You may try a caching plugin if you don’t have one yet.
You may try follow the guidelines provided in this article as well: https://wp-rocket.me/google-core-web-vitals-wordpress/improve-largest-contentful-paint/#improve-ttfb:~:text=with%20WP%20Rocket.-,How%20to%20Reduce%20a%20Largest%20Contentful%20Paint%20Longer%20Than%202.5%20s%20or%204%20s%20on%20Mobile%20and%20Desktop,-Here%20are%20ten
However, upon re-testing your site, it seems that your mobile LCP is now passing.
