When running a GTmetrix report, common audits that you may encounter are:

Defer offscreen images

It means the images below the fold (offscreen) should load only after the critical resources above the fold have been fully loaded.

Lazy load third-party resources with facades

The main idea behind this audit is to replace the third-party resources (videos or embed social media) with a static and less weighty element.

Both of these recommendations can be easily fixed with WP Rocket, without touching the code!

Only When Needed

You’ll get stellar results in no time!

LazyLoad Your Images, iframes and videos

Thanks to the LazyLoad option in WP Rocket, you can defer the loading of images (including background images), videos or iframes, leaving them ”off-screen” until the users need them. 
As a result, the loading time will be faster, and the page’s interactivity better.

You’ll find this option in the Media tab. It’s as simple as it seems!

Exclude the LCP Element

While you should lazy load all the images below the fold, you should always exclude the above-the-fold images from lazy loading. 

The risk is to increase the Largest Contentful Paint grade, which measures how long it takes for the largest element to become visible in the viewport.

WP Rocket has you covered: simply use the field in the plugin settings to exclude images and iframes from LazyLoad!

Replace YouTube iframe with Preview Image

In the Media tab on WP Rocket dashboard, you just need to enable this feature to replace the YouTube video iframes with the thumbnails set by YouTube.

This will help you fix the “Lazy load third-party resources with facades” audit.

Enjoy Outstanding Results

Applying a lazy loading strategy to your site has many impacts on performance.

It will conserve essential bandwidth, particularly on mobile devices, resulting in a fast-loading page.

On top of that, you should also see better GTmetrix scores with a significant improvement of key performance metrics such as Time to Interactive (TTI) and Speed Index (SI).

With WP Rocket, and some other suggested improvements my site scores 100% on GTmetrix for speed and structure. The best thing is I didn't really do much with the plugin, just activate it, pretty much leave it as is out of the box and let it do its thing.
