When it’s more than a quick fix
If the site is still slow after the easy fixes, or the scores are poor on phones, the theme, code or hosting needs work.

Questions
Does website speed affect Google rankings?
Yes. Core Web Vitals are among the signals Google’s ranking systems use, and slow pages also lose visitors before they finish loading.
What is a good PageSpeed score?
Aim for “good” Core Web Vitals on mobile. The score matters less than how fast real visitors can see and use the page.
