Poor mobile pagespeed

Hi
I have two sites with a poor mobile pagespeed performance. I don't understand this as:
- I have reduced the size of images with Shortpixels
- I generally attempt to keep my sites clean without too many bloated plugins
- I have installed autoptimize with the settings suggested in GP documentation
- Have a strong host

Thanks.
Hi there,
Sorry but I'm not really sure what you are asking here.
All we can do is to make sure the GP products are optimized for performance and they are.
I see lots of other plugins being used on the linked site - have you tried disabling them to see if any of them is slowing the site down significantly?
I was just wondering whether you had tips for optimizing the pagespeed? Would a plugin like WP Rocket help? Which plugins are you referring to?
Hi there,
i looked at the tagrenovering site for reference.
One improvement i can see is related to Google Fonts:
Loading them Locally see here or replacing them with the System font can make a big speed improvement.
Other improvements can be made by reducing the impact of render blocking files, see here to get a view of the files that are the main issue:

Plugins such as PerfMatters or WP Rocket can help with eliminating those issues. But they do take careful configuration.
