Really low pagespeed
3 replies · Started by david on May 7, 2021
Hi, I'm starting to build a brand new website using Generatepress and Woocommerce.
I installed the theme and loaded a site design from the library, the Page speed is really really low: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hlifedistribuzione.com%2Fprodotto%2Fhoodie-with-logo%2F
I even installed Wp Rocket, Autoptimize and Asset Cleanup pro... But nothing.
How can I improve the pagespeed on my website?
Regards,
David
Hi there,
the PSI report provides the issues it is seeing with loading.
The first issue is Remove Unused Javascript which is an oppportunity for improvement.
However those script are mostly related to stripe and paypal so they are probably required on the product page and should remain.
So look down at Diagnostics and under Reduce the impact of third-party code we seem those same JS files that are blocking the loading of the page. So to resolve that you can try deferring those files. As you have WP Rocket installed it has that option - see here:
https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1265-load-javascript-deferred
You shouldn't require Autoptimize, as WP Rocket provides the same options. And you have to be very careful with Asset Cleanup Pro as this may remove files that are required leading to site breakages.
Try dealing with the above first as that is the major issue.
I will try to improve the speed, thank you very much David :)
You're welcome
