How We Fix It
Our senior engineers follow this systematic approach to resolve the issue quickly and permanently.
Diagnose: Run Google PageSpeed Insights and WebPageTest to identify bottlenecks.
Image Optimization: Convert images to WebP format, compress to under 200KB, use lazy loading for below-the-fold images.
Minimize Requests: Combine and minify CSS/JS files, remove unused plugins and scripts.
Enable Caching: Configure browser caching headers, implement a CDN like Cloudflare.
Fix Render Blocking: Defer non-critical JavaScript, inline critical CSS above the fold.
