The speed of my website is very slow, due to which my LCP and CLS issue is coming again and again. Please solve this problem.

Hi there,

if you can share a link to your site then we can take a look and provide you with some advice.

Hi there,

i ran a page speed test on the site here for reference:

https://pagespeed.web.dev/report?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.parikshapoint.com%2F

The major issue being flagged is related to Javascripts running on the site:

Reduce unused JavaScript
Reduce the impact of third-party code
Minimize main-thread work
Reduce JavaScript execution time

All of them point to the 3rd party scripts being a problem. And most of them are related to adverts.

You should use a Plugin like Flying Scripts or PerfMatters to defer the loading of those scripts.

LCP can be improved by NOT lazy loading your featured images - this topic explains:

I am already using the Autoptimize plugin you mentioned.

Hi, david

I'm already using Autoptimize plugin, Should I still install any JavaScript plugins?

Hi there,

I'm not exactly sure if Autoptimize has defer parsing and/or loading JS feature.

I believe that's why David recommended another optimization plugin. To do this one job.

Hi Elvin,

I read and saw as much about generatepress. I thought generatepress was a great theme. But I am using this theme from last 5 months. But I haven't got good result yet. Earlier I had a CLS issue on my website which lasted for a long time. Then now the CLS and LCP issue has come. My website has not yet given good speed pefomance. you tell me what to do ?

Hi David,

thank you for this. i am going to install Flying Scripts plugin.

You're welcome
