Hey @Afterhrsuk,

Your store's LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) is taking a hit here, and improving it can make a real difference to your speed score. If you need a hand tackling this, feel free to email us at hello@untechnickle - we’ll help you sort it out.

Cheers!

Looks like your site could use a bit of work to improve loading times. Try compressing images and minimizing scripts for better speed—classic XXBrits efficiency!

Hi,

It seems the link you provided (https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-www-afterhrsuk-com/46wv56bppu?form_factor=mobile), but no worries! You can still take steps to improve your website's performance by focusing on some typical areas highlighted by PageSpeed Insights.

After reviewing your Google PageSpeed Insights stats, I noticed that mobile performance and the LCP score are quite low. The Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) seems to be affected by the content below your hero banner card list, which might need some adjustments to improve the priority loading of that content.

Here are some non-technical suggestions to address these issues:

1. Reduce the Impact of Third-Party Code: For scripts that are essential, ensure they’re loaded asynchronously or deferred until the page has finished loading. This prevents third-party scripts from blocking critical resources.
2. Minimize Unused Javascript: Minify your JavaScript files by removing unnecessary spaces, comments, and other unneeded characters. This will help reduce the file size and improve load times.
3. Properly Size Your Images: Use the srcset attribute to serve different image sizes based on the user's device. For example, smaller images can be served to mobile users, and larger images for desktop users.
4. Optimize Images & Use Next-Generation Formats: Compress your images without sacrificing quality. Tools like TinyPNG and ImageOptim can help optimize images, and consider using modern formats like WebP for better performance.

After appying these changes on the website, check your site’s performance again to check the impact on Google’s Core Web Vitals like LCP, Performance score, etc.. and get more actionable suggestions.
