Page speed optimization

[SEO Learner 04]

I am wordpress cms user(as most of the clients come up with this cms) and doing speed optimization mostly for the homepage. I can't go up to 50% score of page speed insights from 20% or 30% for the mobile devices. I have tried many effective plugins like Autoptimize, wp-optimize, jetpack, and many more..but can't make it up to 70% doing all(minifying js,CSS,HTML, ; defering js code , swaping google font to default device font)..

Do you have any better suggestions for best results... any recommendation for plugin...

I get 100% score for all of my pages, but after delaying the load of AdSense JavaScript.

I see that all of my competitors that get better SERP ranking have 50-60% score, and I'm always considering not to delay the load of AdSense JavaScript. I'm suspecting I'm loosing money without earning SERP ranking.

What is your opinion?

I would not artificially delay (or lazy load) the AdSense code. It causes its own delay so that is not something you want to slow down. As far as pagespeed, you are not responsible for delays you don't control. If your pages pass without AdSense, you've done what you can.

You will need a backend developer who will optimize and increase your website speed by reducing common errors such as LFT and FCP etc. In my case the plugins usually work. have you try optimizing your images outside the wordpress and then posted them?

Thank you @not2easy

That's what I'm suspecting from the last years. I started obsessing about 100% in the PageSpeed test, but I've realized that I've been losing money (the ads have charged me later). Much appreciated your comment.
