GTmetrix checkpoints
GTmetrix shows many kinds of analysis results. You may wonder which ones to look at first. Start by checking the following two points.
Use Largest Contentful Paint in Web Vitals as your speed metric
In Web Vitals,
check “Largest Contentful Paint” as your speed metric
.
LCP measures how long it takes for the largest content element on your page, such as a hero image or heading text, to become visible within your visitors’ viewport.For a good user experience, aim for an LCP of 1.2 seconds or less.

GTmetrix
In many cases, the largest content on a page is an image. Once the biggest visual element on the page appears, website visitors feel that the page has loaded. If it appears smoothly, they can browse the site comfortably without frustration.
If LCP is slow, the page feels slow to load, which increases stress for visitors.
When improving your site with GTmetrix, use this LCP value as a benchmark and work on lowering it.
Probleme in den wichtigsten Punkten der Zusammenfassung finden
If you see Reduce initial server response time, consider moving to a faster server
“Reduce initial server response time” means shortening the time from when the server first receives a request until it returns the first byte to the client, in other words the user's browser.
This is called “Time to First Byte (TTFB).”
It is an important factor that shows whether your server is fast or slow.
If this result is poor, consider moving to a different server.
