Performance Optimisation

Make your website faster. Make every interaction count.

A slow website costs more than a few milliseconds.

It creates friction, loses customers and makes your product feel harder to use.

Fly Fox helps businesses improve web performance through technical analysis, frontend optimisation and performance engineering — from Core Web Vitals and JavaScript bundles to caching, rendering and real-world user experience.

Performance isn't a feature. It's part of the experience.

Customers don't think about your JavaScript bundle or rendering strategy.

They simply notice when a page loads quickly — and when it doesn’t.

We look beyond a single Lighthouse score to understand how your website actually performs for real users.

1

Speed

Reduce the time it takes for pages and content to become usable.

2

Responsiveness

Make interactions feel immediate and reduce delays between user actions and the interface responding.

3

Stability

Reduce unexpected layout shifts and create a more predictable experience.

4

Conversion

Remove technical friction from the customer journey and make it easier for users to complete important actions.

Performance optimisation services

01

Core Web Vitals

Improve the metrics that matter for real-world user experience, including Largest Contentful Paint, Interaction to Next Paint and Cumulative Layout Shift.

02

Frontend Profiling

Analyse your application to identify expensive renders, unnecessary JavaScript, inefficient components and other frontend bottlenecks.

03

Bundle Optimisation

Reduce JavaScript and CSS payloads through code splitting, tree shaking, dependency analysis and smarter loading strategies.

04

Rendering Optimisation

Improve how and when content is rendered using techniques such as server-side rendering, static generation and progressive loading.

05

Image Optimisation

Reduce image weight without sacrificing visual quality through responsive images, modern formats, sizing and intelligent loading.

06

Caching

Design effective caching strategies across the browser, CDN, application and server to reduce unnecessary work and improve response times.

07

Third-Party Script Optimisation

Identify and control the performance impact of analytics, advertising, chat widgets and other third-party services.

08

Performance Audits

Get a clear picture of what's slowing your website down, why it's happening and what should be fixed first.

We find the bottleneck before fixing it.

Measurement first, optimisation second

Performance optimisation isn't about randomly applying a list of best practices.

We start with measurement.

Measure
Profile
Diagnose
Optimise
Validate
Monitor
01

Measure

Establish a performance baseline using real-user data and controlled testing.

02

Profile

Investigate the frontend, network requests, rendering behaviour and application runtime.

03

Diagnose

Identify the bottlenecks that are actually affecting your users.

04

Optimise

Make targeted changes that address the underlying problem rather than treating the symptoms.

05

Validate

Measure again to understand whether the changes produced a meaningful improvement.

06

Monitor

Keep performance visible so regressions can be caught before they become a problem.

Core Web Vitals, explained.

Signals for the quality of a website experience

Google's Core Web Vitals provide useful signals for understanding the quality of a website experience.

Largest Contentful Paint

How quickly does the main content appear?

We optimise critical resources, server response times, rendering and asset delivery to help important content appear sooner.

Interaction to Next Paint

How quickly does the page respond to interaction?

We reduce expensive JavaScript execution, long tasks and unnecessary rendering work to make interfaces more responsive.

Cumulative Layout Shift

Does the page unexpectedly move while loading?

We identify unstable content and ensure space is properly reserved for images, fonts and dynamic elements.

Good scores are useful.

But the goal isn't to chase a number.

The goal is a better experience for real people.

Performance that supports conversion.

Performance and conversion are connected.

Every unnecessary delay adds friction to the customer journey.

That's particularly important for ecommerce.

A slow product page can interrupt discovery.

A sluggish interface can make browsing frustrating.

A delayed checkout interaction can create uncertainty.

We optimise performance with the entire customer journey in mind — not just the homepage.

Technical performance, without the guesswork.

An audit that tells you why, not just that

Your website is slow.

It should tell you why.

We investigate areas including:

  • JavaScript execution
  • React rendering
  • Component performance
  • Network waterfalls
  • Server response times
  • Image delivery
  • Font loading
  • Third-party scripts
  • Caching behaviour
  • API requests
  • Bundle composition
  • Rendering strategy
  • CDN configuration

Then we prioritise the changes based on their likely impact.

Performance engineering for modern websites

Opportunities across the entire stack

Modern web applications can be incredibly fast — but only when the architecture supports it. We work with technologies including React, Next.js, TypeScript and modern cloud infrastructure to identify opportunities across the entire stack.

Performance isn't only a frontend problem.

Sometimes the biggest improvement comes from the server.

Sometimes it's an API.

Sometimes it's a database query.

Sometimes it's a third-party script.

And sometimes the best optimisation is removing something entirely.

Why Fly Fox?

Engineering-led optimisation

Engineering-led optimisation

We don't treat performance as a collection of Lighthouse recommendations. We investigate how your application actually works and identify the technical causes behind performance problems.

Focused on impact

Not every optimisation is worth making. We prioritise improvements based on user impact, technical complexity and business value.

Measure what matters

Synthetic tests are useful, but real-user data tells a different story. Where available, we use both controlled testing and real-world performance data to understand the experience your customers are actually getting.

Built to stay fast

A one-off performance improvement isn't enough. We help establish patterns, tooling and monitoring that make it easier to prevent performance regressions as your product evolves.

When should you optimise?

You don't need to wait until it's obviously slow.

You don’t need to wait until your website is obviously slow.

Performance work can be valuable when:

  • Core Web Vitals are underperforming
  • Mobile users experience slow pages
  • JavaScript bundles have grown significantly
  • Your application has become harder to maintain
  • New features are affecting existing performance
  • Conversion rates are being affected by friction
  • A redesign has made the site heavier
  • Third-party scripts are slowing down the experience
  • You're preparing for a major traffic increase

Turn performance into a competitive advantage.

Fast websites feel better.

They make products easier to use, reduce friction and give your customers more time to focus on what matters.

Fly Fox helps you understand where your performance is being lost — and turn those findings into measurable improvements.
