What the heck is LCP and why should you care? With Google Rankings set to change May 2021, it's important to understand their new metrics so you can outrank your competition.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
So, let's talk about LCP ("Largest Contentful Paint"). LCP, in a nutshell, is the main image or piece of content that loads when someone first lands on your webpage. Specifically the largest image, video, or block of info on the screen.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Google wants our sites to "get to the beans" as quickly as possible. Visitors need to know quickly if they've landed on the right page-- and a page loading or simple title quickly popping up isn't going to cut it. Previously common "optimization" methods had the images load last to improve the perceived load-time, which is now no longer a good idea for the main content.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
**⁠⠀
So how fast can your visitors "get to the beans"? Run a test at gtmetrix.com. The goal is under 2.5 Seconds 75% of the time.⁠⠀

If you’ve built something beautiful or complex it’s likely your site is running slow. Unless you know all the techie tricks, and understand what exactly GTmetrix and Google PageSpeed Insights are telling you, it’s a long process of trial and error to speed up your site. Even then, is it running as fast and smoothly as it could?

After years of working with WordPress and TONS of plugins, settings, and combinations, I’ve found some excellent go to combos for various site setups and know how to troubleshoot quickly to optimize the setup for your specific site. I’ll test your site before and after and share the reports with you so you can the success for yourself.
