Reduce Total Page Size for Faster Load Times

Web Vitals Analyzer

What is this warning?

Your webpage is very large, meaning visitors have to download a lot of data to view it. This can lead to slow load times, especially on mobile devices or slower network connections. A large page size is a major factor in poor Core Web Vitals scores and can cause visitors to leave before the page even finishes loading.

How to Fix This Issue

How to Fix It

The Problem

The combined size of all resources (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, fonts) on the page is several megabytes.

The Solution

Audit all the assets on your page. Key strategies include:

  • Compress Images: Use modern formats like WebP and ensure they are properly sized.
  • Minify Code: Minify your CSS, JavaScript, and HTML to remove unnecessary characters.
  • Remove Unused Code: Use browser developer tools to find and remove any CSS or JavaScript that isn't being used.
  • Enable Server Compression: Use Gzip or Brotli compression on your server.

Why This Works

A smaller page size means faster downloads, a quicker rendering time, and a better user experience. This directly improves metrics like Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) and is a fundamental aspect of web performance optimization.
