One image left out of optimization

    Hello,

    I setup AO and shortpixel 2 days ago, and things seem to be going ok, however one of my main issues right now is that shortpixel is not optimizing this one image (according to Google Insights). Any thoughts on why this is happening and what I can do to fix it? It is costing me almost 2 seconds of load time.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    hmm, the image is optimized actually, the shortpixel one is 617KB, the original one 2MB, see screenshots below

    The only thing that might be happening is that the image is not served as webp/ avif image, which is because AO needs images to be lazyloaded to switch between those image-filetypes and lazyload does not work on background-images of that type.

    hope this clarifies,
    frank

    Thank you! I guess that is the issue. Any thoughts on how to make that load quicker? It’s straight up killing me on mobile.

    Not using a big background image would help, but I guess it’s part of the design? If it may be a consolation; don’t believe G your site would be 1.8s faster if the image were loaded in a next-gen format, the impact will not be _that_ big.

    The image does also impact the LCP though, which you can try to counter by adding 

    
<img src="https://cdn.shortpixel.ai/client/q_glossy,ret_img/https://rocketskatesrecording.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Untitled-design.png" style="display:none;">

    to the HTML of the homepage which should ensure the image is loaded with higher priority?
