SERVICE: SPEED OPTIMIZATION

Fix a Failing PageSpeed Score — the Right Way

Slow sites lose rankings, traffic, and sales. I diagnose the actual cause of poor Core Web Vitals scores — not just the surface symptoms — and fix it without breaking your design.

COMMON CAUSES I FIX

Where most PageSpeed scores actually break

Unoptimized media

Oversized images and video without proper compression, formats (WebP/AVIF/VP9), or responsive srcset handling.

Render-blocking scripts

Apps and scripts loading eagerly instead of deferred, delaying Largest Contentful Paint.

No lazy loading

Below-the-fold sliders, videos, and images loading immediately instead of on-demand with IntersectionObserver.

Layout shift (CLS)

Missing image/video dimensions causing content to jump as the page loads.

Forced reflows

JavaScript reading and writing layout properties in ways that repeatedly trigger browser recalculation.

Bloated theme code

Legacy CSS/JS from old customizations or removed apps still loading on every page.

APPROACH

I diagnose first, then fix — in that order

Full audit

Run and read the actual PageSpeed/Lighthouse report — not just the score, the specific failing metrics (LCP, CLS, TBT).

Root-cause diagnosis

Trace each metric back to the specific asset, script, or code pattern causing it.

Targeted fixes

Compression, lazy loading, deferred scripts, srcset rewrites — applied without altering your design.

Re-test & report

Confirm the improved score and explain what changed, in plain terms.

FEATURED WORK

A Shopify product page went from a completely failed PageSpeed score to fully optimized — video lazy loading, a crashing story slider rebuilt with proper error handling, and responsive image fixes across multiple sections.

What realistic improvement looks like

Scores in the 90s are achievable on most Shopify product pages once root causes are fixed — but the right target depends on your theme, apps, and content. I'll give you a realistic range during the free audit, not an inflated promise.

Speed Optimization FAQs

What PageSpeed score can I realistically expect?

Scores in the 90s are achievable on most Shopify product pages once root causes are fixed — I'll give a realistic range during the free audit.

Will speed optimization change how my site looks?

No — the goal is fixing the code causing the slowdown without touching the design you've already approved.

How long does a speed optimization project take?

A single product page fix is often 3–7 days; a full-store pass typically takes 1–3 weeks.
