Paid test task: complete optimization of PageSpeed/Core Web Vitals for the entire site

Goal: improve the performance of the entire site (mobile-first).

What to do (briefly)

• CSS: critical CSS inline; main styles — async (preload+onload) / Remove Unused CSS.

• JS: defer/delay; third-party (GTM/FB/shares) — after interaction.

• Images: loading="lazy" for everything outside the fold; LCP image — without lazy, with fetchpriority="high", correct width/height, WebP/AVIF, srcset/sizes.

• Fonts: font-display: swap, preload necessary styles (self-host/subsetting — a plus).

• Cloudflare: Brotli, Minify, correct cache/TTL rules for static; cache TTFB where possible.

Focus on typical pain points: render-blocking style.min.css/layouts/*.css, jquery.min.js, heavy GTM/FB, offscreen images, small fonts in reviews.

  • no warnings “Render-blocking resources” and “Defer offscreen images” (or total savings ≤ 50 KB);

  • INP ≤ 200 ms, CLS ≤ 0.1 (lab).

• TTFB (cache) ≤ 0.4 s where pages are cached.

What to provide as output

• Brief report: what was changed (in list) + screens PSI “before/after” for pages.

• Export/screens of optimizer settings (WP Rocket/Autoptimize/Perfmatters).
