Website performance issues

DPetrovic1 — Thu, 09 Nov 2023 12:04:16 GMT

Hi, we are using WordPress and we had the Hubspot forms on our website for a long time, but we noticed Core Web Vital issues starting Sept 17th. All of our pages have bad score, and we noticed that it's the same with every website we use and have Hubspot scripts to add forms.

LCP is bad, and GTMetrix waterfall shows multiple Hubspot scripts loading for over 10s and they are marked as incomplete.

We use WordPress and WP Rocket with Astra theme and before adding Hubspot scripts, our website was blazing fast. Even if we preload scripts with WP Rocket we get the same issue.

What can we do?

Hi @DPetrovic1

This resource might be helpful:

How many forms do you have embedded per page? Are your embedded Hubspot forms set to load in iframes or inline?

The Hubspot tracking code should load asynchronously and not be required for FCP, but it seems the forms might not align with this. The link I shared should help with that.
