Speed up slow WordPress site built with Elementor
Project Deliverables & Description
Our site is built with Elementor and PageSpeed shows a mobile LCP of 5.6 seconds. The homepage has a large hero slider, several third-party scripts and unoptimised images. I have tried a caching plugin but the score barely moved. I want a measured plan: find what actually blocks rendering, fix it, and show before and after results from PageSpeed Insights and WebPageTest.
Slow mobile pages are costing us ad conversions, and Search Console lists the URLs as poor.
Key Deliverables:
- Codebase Review & Initial Implementation: Reviewing existing code, setting up development environment, and beginning core work.
- Feature Implementation & Testing: Completing primary deliverables with automated and manual testing.
- QA Verification & Production Deployment: Final cross-browser/device testing, staging verification, and production handoff.
Requirements:
- Demonstrated experience with WordPress, Core Web Vitals, PHP, Image Optimization, Caching
- Async communication preferred with milestone check-ins.
- Must test on both mobile and desktop before requesting milestone release.
- We can only provide staging access initially, not production.
If you have experience with this type of project, we'd love to hear from you. Please include relevant work samples with your bid.
