Speed up your most visited pages, starting with the slowest
Measure your three busiest pages on mobile, see the biggest fixes Google suggests, act on what SAR can help with and measure again.

Find the [number, e.g. three] most visited pages of my site in the last 28 days and test how fast each loads on mobile. Explain the biggest fixes in plain words and sort them into what you can help with here, what my developer should do, and what to ask my host. If a plugin I don't need is slowing the site down, suggest switching it off and wait for my approval. Test again after each change and show me the before and after scores.

If SAR is already in your AI app, this is enough:
Test my three busiest pages on mobile, fix what you can with my approval and show before and after.
What happens
- The AI app asks Google Analytics for the most viewed pages in the last 28 days.
- It tests each with Google PageSpeed Insights on mobile: scores, what real visitors experienced when Google has the data, and the biggest fixes.
- It lists the installed plugins to spot ones that add weight and may not be needed.
- Switching a plugin off is approved in SAR with your password and can be undone.
- It tests again after each change and reports the before and after scores. Hosting, server caching and a CDN are outside SAR; it says what to ask your host.
