Below-the-fold images not lazy-loaded

Low priorityImages

Images further down the page load immediately instead of waiting until the visitor scrolls near them.

What triggers this issue

  • Images after the first three on the page have no loading="lazy".

Why it matters

Loading every image up front competes with the content people see first, slowing it down and wasting data on images many visitors never scroll to.

How to fix it

  1. Add loading="lazy" to images that aren’t visible on first load.
  2. Never lazy-load the main hero image or logo; that delays Largest Contentful Paint.
