BEAVER BUILDER DEMO

NOT AN OFFICIAL BEAVER BUILDER SITE

Test with Google PageSpeed Insights:

Test one at a time - leave 3 mins before retesting.
They should meet the lab metrics for Core Web Vitals* and show mobiles PSI scores of 96 -100**.

* Waiting/hoping for actual field data ** variations of -/+ 15 are expected. The server is stretched supporting the Beaver Junction plugin templates.

The Beaver Builder Theme is used.

Hosted on a US (San Francisco) based (1gb ram/shared CPU) Digital Ocean droplet (with 6 other sites).

I am presently testing Cache Enabler which is supported by BB. Caching has not improved scores, but helps with load impact.

Removed (via snippets): Emojis CSS and JS and JQuery Migrate
Also Disable Gutenberg is used rather than the Classic Editor which removes the Gutenberg CSS.

(not perceived in test scores but takes 12kb (compressed) off the load.)

SEE VIDEO CLIP

(this runs through the pages and the PSI scores before caching and after image optimisation )

Test with Speed Vitals:

(Mobile only - like Google page speed insight but saves results).

**Test with PINGDOM*:**

* Not based on Lighthouse.

**Test with WEB PAGE TEST*:**

* California, USA - Chrome - Cable

**Test with WEB PAGE TEST MOBILE*:**

* Emulated Samsung Galaxy S7 - 3G (slow). LCP fail on Meat, Business & DJ. Will pass on fast 3G.
