Website loading time negatively impacted by cookie banner

Our HubSpot SEO report says that the following element makes our page significantly lower on multiple pages(up to 21 LCP):
<div id=“hs-eu-policy-wording”>

I don’t have a clue on how to fix this. I can imagine that it has something to do with the cookie policy banner, but we are using the standard HubSpot one.

hi @mxx have you run PageSpeed Insights or Google Lighthouse with the cookie banner turned on and off to compare the results?

I’ve seen the SEO report in HubSpot trigger a false flag for the cookie banner and it is likely not as big of an issue as it seems - I’m curious to see if the results hold true for your site.

Hi @mxx

It would be really helpful if you could share your page link. So that I can help you with the correct solution

Thanks!

There are much simpler solutions out there that are lightweight and meant not to impact web performance. They’re called consent management platforms (CMPs). You can start with free CMP solutions first such as this one from Ketch for instance. Hope this helps!
