You have a script in the <head> of your page that is loaded synchronously (without `async` or `defer`). This is a major performance bottleneck, as it forces the browser to stop everything, download the script, and run it before it can continue building the page. This is a primary cause of slow page loads.
<head>
<script src="/js/blocking-script.js"></script>
</head>The best solution is to move the script to the end of the `<body>` and add the `defer` attribute. This ensures it won't block page rendering.
<body>
<!-- Your content -->
<script src="/js/blocking-script.js" defer></script>
</body>By deferring the script, you allow the browser to render the entire page first, giving the user something to see and interact with much more quickly. This dramatically improves the user experience and your site's performance metrics.
This issue can affect your site's search engine rankings and user experience. Addressing it promptly helps ensure optimal performance and visibility in search results.
