    Hello WordPress community,

    I’m managing a drone website and have been trying to improve user experience by embedding relevant external content. However, I’ve recently encountered some issues that I could use help with.

    I am trying to embed an external link to this page: https://www.zenadrone.com/advantages-of-using-drone-with-camera/, but after embedding it into one of my posts, I noticed the page load time has significantly increased. I’m not sure if this is an issue with the WordPress theme, the way the external link is being rendered, or if it has something to do with caching settings.

    Has anyone else experienced a similar problem when embedding external URLs? If so, what can I do to prevent page slowdowns while still linking to valuable resources like the one I mentioned?

    I’m using Bridge and have the following plugins installed:

    • Yoast SEO
    • WP Super Cache
    • Elementor
    • Jetpack

    Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

  • Hi @astroo,

    I hope you are doing great today.

    Embedding content might affect loading speed of pages. Let me know what type of content are you trying to embed in the page? If so, I can tell you why the page load becomes poor when embedding that specific content.

    I have just done some performance tests on your site. I have one more recommendation. You can improve your page to a greater extent by optimizing images through any plugins. I am telling you this because the ‘Largest Contentful Paint’ element in your site is an unoptimized image.

    Get any image optimization plugin at https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/tags/optimize-images/

    Hope this helps. Awaiting your response.

    Regards,
