Google’s John Mueller Gives Tips To Improve PageSpeed Insights Scores

Google\’s John Mueller has provided valuable tips on enhancing website performance and addressing challenges related to Google\’s PageSpeed Insights (PSI) tool. In response to a Reddit discussion, where a user struggled to improve PSI scores despite significantly reducing image and video file sizes, Mueller advised conducting tests on individual elements. This involves placing a specific element (e.g., an image or video) on a no-indexed test page to isolate and assess its impact. If the test page performs better than live pages, it suggests other factors are limiting speed. In such cases, optimizing the remaining issues may help. Additionally, Mueller highlighted that extensive work may not be necessary if page speed is already reasonable. These insights emphasize the importance of incremental testing and patience in optimizing website performance and PSI scores. Click here to learn more.
