Hi I am designing a wordpress website using generatepress pro and I am really afraid that without having much data the website score is very bad.
I have used autooptimize plugin to minify css,js and html. Also tried wp-rocket. I am Using elementor Pro page builder.
Even though doing this all i am not going beyond 30 on mobile and 70 on desktop.

Please let me know is there any way to improve the speed till 90+?
Also how can we get rid of fontawesome?
Looking forward!

Hi there,
You have a lot of render-blocking resources, which definitely doesn't help your score.
I'm seeing at least 8 stylesheets from Elementor, and Font Awesome is also being added by Elementor.
Autoptimize should help deal with a lot of these (but it's still a ton of CSS). It doesn't look like it's activated anymore - can you check?
I have deactivated it because David from your support told me to deactivate it during development.
Shall I activate?
Yes please, that way we can see what else can be done to optimize :)
