Hi Tim,

Yes! That's the intention. These recommendations were made with the goal of
improving both desktop and mobile performance metrics. On that note, are
you able to share GTM access with us at webmaster@u7solutions.com? There is
something that may be affecting the loading that we'd like to investigate.

Secondly, this quote was for https://www.homecareassistancemontreal.ca/ but
we can certainly look into the other domain as well if you'd like. Can I
just confirm that it is https://homecareassistance.com?

Thanks,
