How to fix poor CLS on your store?

[Marshall6]

Hey, I was wondering If anyone can help me fix this poor CLS on my website. I even tried changing the file type of my content to wepg so that It could run smoother but that didn't work. Any suggestions?

It will depend on your site, the apps you use, and what are your priorities.

I would start with the Shopify Analyzer tool: https://analyze2.speedboostr.com.

You can also use Google PageSpeed Insights: https://pagespeed.web.dev, though this is geared for general sites, not necessarily engaging ecommerce sites with app functionality.

This guide is a couple years old but the foundation principles still stand (optimize images, lazy load assets until after page load, defer unneeded apps, etc): https://speedboostr.com/shopify-optimization.
