desktop, by default the same sized image will also load onto mobile. Loading a desktop-sized image on mobile (instead of a mobile-sized image) can highly impede your website&#8217;s performance and your Core Web Vitals metrics. To prevent this, Elementor Expert <a href=\"https:\/\/experts.elementor.com\/expert\/60f5a9abae14b10013282e88\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shay Toder<\/a> advises the following: \u201cWe need to duplicate all of the large images and resize them to 480px width for them to be suitable for mobile \u2014 we can resize the photos using online tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/resizeimage.net\/\">resizeimage.net<\/a> or any graphic software like Photoshop.<\/p><p>When adding a background image for a section or column in the desktop mode, make sure to click the &#8216;<a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\/blog\/responsive-website\/\"   title=\"responsive\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"7352\">responsive<\/a> mode&#8217; icon and change your background image to a new mobile-size image to fit the mobile view. This process results in a full-width image for desktop and a 480px width image for mobile, which will also improve your Core Web Vitals metrics.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-583c5f6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"583c5f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Insufficient Hosting<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1c48cec elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1c48cec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Webhosting can have a massive impact on your website&#8217;s performance &#8211; simply put, it can either make or break your website.

Next, I advise my clients to migrate to a local hosting service provider (i.e., where your target audience is located). However, if your audience is scattered around the world, I strongly suggest using a <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/elementor.com\/blog\/cdn\/\"   title=\"CDN\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"6743\">CDN<\/a> service to cut down the latency to less than 150ms and speed up the website even more.\u201d<\/p><p>Have you come across a different performance optimization issue or question and would like to consult an expert about it?
