I need a performance-focused WordPress developer who can jump in today, work through a VPN, and quietly tune an Elementor site that is currently dragging on mobile. Right now the Core Web Vitals read: First Contentful Paint 5.3 s, Largest Contentful Paint 6.1 s, Total Blocking Time 510 ms, CLS 0.391, Speed Index 7.4 s. The main culprits appear to be render-blocking requests (≈4.6 s of delay), sub-optimal image delivery, a few legacy JavaScript fragments, inefficient font loading, short cache lifetimes, an oversized DOM, and assorted third-party calls. I need those bottlenecks removed or minimised without altering design or key marketing/analytics integrations. Please streamline critical CSS/JS, defer or inline where appropriate, optimise and possibly convert images to lighter formats, set proper font-display rules, extend caching, and prune any unnecessary reflows. Elementor quirks often introduce extra wrappers, so familiarity with Elementor’s DOM structure and safe ways to dequeue its unused widgets is essential. Deliverables today: • Updated site pushed live (or staged then merged) with no visual regression. • Mobile Lighthouse audit showing LCP under 2.5 s and TBT below 200 ms. • Brief change log outlining plugins/settings touched so I can reproduce in other environments. All work is strictly confidential; treat both code and data as NDA-level sensitive. If you can start immediately and stay with it until the numbers are green, let’s move forward.
