    Readers have told me my site is very slow to open. Google Site Kit says I have poor total blocking time. Site support at Wealthy Affiliate where my site is hosted said the problem is that I need to eliminating render-blocking, unused CSS/JS and that it’s a theme problem. They told me to check here to resolve the issue. Can you help?

    Hi there,

    I analyzed your site using PageSpeed Insights, and the Total Blocking Time issue is primarily caused by third-party scripts, specifically Google Tag Manage and Google Ads scripts.

    To address this, consider using a caching or JavaScript optimization plugin to defer or minimize these scripts, which should help mitigate the issue.

    Thanks for your response. However, as a tech-challenge dude, I don’t know what that means. Can you recommend a plugin?

    The recommended plugin with good compatibility with GeneratePress is Perfmatters, but it is a paid plugin.

    A free alternative is Autoptimize: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/autoptimize/
