Hi everyone, welcome to Kitu Blogging and in this video I will show you how you can fix
0:04
LCP issue or largest contentful paint issue in your blogger website. So in the last video we have discussed how you can fix CLS issue where I have explained how we can
0:14
remove the custom fund or custom Google font and use the system font to fix CLS issue
0:21
So you can also fix that LCP issue as well if we use system fund instead of Google font
0:26
So, I recommend you to watch that video, so it will both solve the CLS and LCP issue as well
0:35
So by default it is set to all. So here you can select the LCP here and as you can see that these errors are causing the
0:42
LCP in our website. So if I click on here, it is saying that reduce on you JavaScript and there is eliminate render
0:50
blocking resources and there is reduce initial server response time. So let me just explain what is LVAScript
0:56
So LCP is the time required for the browser to render the largest images or largest text
1:03
block within the viewport. So if you maintain the LCP of 2.5 or below then it is considered as good and if you maintain
1:12
the LCP between 2.5 to 4 seconds it is added in the needs improvement and it is above
1:19
4 seconds then it will count as 4. So when you open a block page it will first render the top section
1:26
And if you scroll down below the page, then it will start showing the later paragraph
1:32
and images. But it will count the fast section or the viewport section
1:37
Here if there is no images, then it will count the text blog and if there is an images, then
1:42
it will count the time required for the browser to render that images
1:47
So how you can fast track this process? Then if you are using a custom font, then you have to remove the custom font and use the system
1:54
font so that it will not take time to render the text as well
1:59
And if you are using images, then you have to compress that images and load the images
2:04
faster so that it will improve the largest contentful paint or improve the LCP score of your website
2:11
And if you are using images like JPG or PNG then I recommend you to use images like WebP format So I have already made a video on how to use WebP format in blogger website
2:23
So you can watch this video as well. So let's take how you can fix this issue as well
2:29
So here it is saying that reduce on your JavaScript. What JavaScript do is it will, when JavaScript is rendering in the browser, it will block the
2:38
loading of the images and text in the website. until the JavaScript is parsed by the browser
2:45
So you can reduce the unused JavaScript. Means this JavaScript are not using
2:49
So we can simply remove this and fix this issue. So here in Blogger you will see this type of error like Recapture
2:57
So this happened if you are using comments. So let me just show you
3:02
So let me just go to the blogger dashboard here and I will click on Settings here
3:08
And let me just scroll down here and you will see this option comments. And here you will see this option Reader's Comment Captcha
3:15
But you will not see this option to turn off these settings. So what I can do is let me just click on hide here and let's click on save here
3:23
Now you will see this option to close the comment capture. So let me just close it here
3:29
Now let me just enable it again. Let's click on Save here
3:34
Now probably the recapture problem will be solved in this website. And in some cases, still the recapture is loading, then you have to disable the command altogether
3:45
You can simply click on hide and click on save so that it will solve that recapture issue
3:50
Or you can use the pop-up window so that it will load the command system in a pop-up window
3:56
and it will not affect the main page. So you can also do that
4:01
So there is one more setting image light box. Make sure to turn this up
4:06
So that it will also reduce the number. number of JavaScript in the website
4:11
So let me just return this again. And let's check if the recapture problem is solved or not
4:18
So let's wait. As you can see that, the score is improved
4:22
Now let's click on the LCP here. And I think that recapture is still there It can only be solved if we remove the comment section And there is this bootstrap and everything
4:38
So let me just simply remove this here again. So I will go to settings here and let me just hide the comment section
4:48
And let's save here. Now let's read on this test again. And as you can see that the score improved significantly
4:57
So, the blogger comment system is loading a lot of unnecessary JavaScripts and if you turn
5:04
off the comment section then here you can see that this pay score improved from 75 to 94
5:10
But in some cases you can disable the comment system because it is required in the block
5:16
website but if you want to improve the block loading speed then you have to turn up here or
5:21
you can use that option pop-up window. So the comments will open in a pop-up window instead
5:27
Instead of embedded so that it will reduce the unused JavaScript in the website
5:33
Now let's click on here, LCP and there is still the eliminate render blocking resources
5:40
So we can preload this CSS, so let me just copy here or you can delay the loading of the CSS as well
5:48
So let's go to theme here and let me just edit HTML here and under the head let me just preload
5:56
that CSS so I will type like link h style seat and I will add like HREF and I will add
6:14
the CSS code here and I will add like real equal to reload like this
6:23
close the tag like this. So it will preload the CSS file for us. So let me just save here
6:33
Now we can also fix that wizard.js issue as well. So what I can do is I will replace the body
6:40
tag with this code So let me just simply do that So I will replace it here and let save the code So if you don know how to fix wizard I have already made a video on that
6:55
So you can watch that. So let's go to the website and let's yze it again
7:03
And let me just scroll down here, click on LCP and here as you can see that it is still there
7:10
So in that case you have to delay the loading of this style sheet
7:15
And here you will see this option reduce on use CSS. So I recommend you to use SVG base theme so that you will not have this problem
7:25
And there is one more thing. If you are using Adsense, you may have seen JavaScript error as well
7:32
For that you need to lazy load the AdSense code. And if you are using ytics code, then you have to leasy load the ytics code as well
7:39
So that it will improve the page loading speed. So I have already made a video on this
7:44
So you can simply search for like lazy load adsense to blogging
7:56
