Core Web Vitals — Continuous Performance Optimization

- Layout thrashing elimination and DOM mutation optimization
- JavaScript bundle analysis and deferred loading strategy
- Image lazy loading, WebP/AVIF format optimization, and responsive srcset
- Critical CSS inlining and render-blocking resource elimination
- INP profiling and front-end interaction diagnostics
- Cloudflare caching rules tuned for additional performance gains

- Table of Contents (TOC) blocks deployed on long-form content for featured snippet capture
- FAQ sections added to key practice area and service pages
