Page speed and Core Web Vitals

Page speed work makes your pages load and respond quickly, as measured by Google’s Core Web Vitals. On an online store it also covers the apps and tracking scripts that build up over the years.

Why it matters

Most visitors in Singapore browse on their phones. Every extra second a page takes to show its main content is a chance for them to tap back to the results and pick a competitor. Stores feel it most, because each installed app or tracking script adds a little delay to product and checkout pages.

Signs you need this

  • Pages take more than a few seconds to show their main content on a phone
  • Content jumps around while the page loads
  • Search Console’s Core Web Vitals report flags “Poor” or “Needs improvement” URLs
  • Your store has collected many apps or plugins over the years

What we do

  1. Measure real performance

    We look at field data from real visitors as well as lab tests, so we fix what people actually experience.

  2. Fix the heaviest problems first

    Usually oversized images, render-blocking scripts and fonts, and slow third-party widgets. Unused store apps are removed and heavy ones load later.

  3. Fix the templates

    We change the page templates and theme code, so every page built on them gets faster as well as the homepage.

  4. Set up caching

    We configure caching and compression on your hosting or CDN where it isn’t already in place.

How we check it worked

We compare Core Web Vitals before and after, page type by page type, and keep watching the field data as it updates over the following weeks.

Common questions

What are Core Web Vitals?

Three measures Google uses for page experience: how fast the main content appears (LCP), how quickly the page responds to taps and clicks (INP), and how much the layout shifts while loading (CLS).

Do I need a new website to make it faster?

Rarely. Most speed problems come from images, scripts and plugins that can be fixed on the existing site.

Do apps slow down Shopify stores?

Many do, especially ones that add scripts to every page. Uninstalled apps can also leave code behind in the theme.
