Optimize Font Display for LCP Text Elements

Web Vitals Analyzer

What is this warning?

Text that serves as your page's Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) element is using fonts without proper font-display optimization. This can cause invisible text during font loading, delaying when users see your most important content.

How to Fix This Issue

How to Fix It

The Problem

@font-face {
  font-family: 'MyFont';
  src: url('font.woff2') format('woff2');
}

The Solution

Add font-display: swap to show fallback text immediately.

@font-face {
  font-family: 'MyFont';
  src: url('font.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-display: swap;
}

Why This Works

Font-display: swap ensures text is visible immediately using fallback fonts, then swaps to the custom font when loaded, improving LCP times.
