Why we check this
We check this because unresolved technical issues can silently block Google from crawling, rendering or indexing your pages at all — no amount of good content fixes a page search engines can't reach in the first place.
How it's checked in your audit
In your seoaudits.ie audit, this is checked as part of the Technical SEO pillar, using crawl data, log files and manual verification.
A common issue we see
An unoptimized, uncompressed hero image is the single most common cause of a slow LCP score.
How to fix it
Compress and correctly size the hero image, preload it, and remove render-blocking scripts above the fold.
