Prioritize visible content

Your page requires additional network round trips to render the above-the-fold content. For best performance, reduce the amount of HTML needed to render above-the-fold content.

The entire HTML response was not sufficient to render the above-the-fold content. This usually indicates that additional resources, loaded after HTML parsing, were required to render above-the-fold content. Prioritize visible content that is needed for rendering above-the-fold by including it directly in the HTML response.

Only about 12% of the final above-the-fold content could be rendered with the full HTML response.

Click to see the screenshot with only the HTML response:

Compressing https://s.aolcdn.com/caas-assets-production/assets…ges/icons/facebook.svg could save 168B (35% reduction).

Minify JavaScript

Compacting JavaScript code can save many bytes of data and speed up downloading, parsing, and execution time.

Minify JavaScript for the following resources to reduce their size by 345B (37% reduction).

Minifying https://s.aolcdn.com/aoldotcom-releases/homepage/init_rapid_yaft.js?v=1 could save 345B (37% reduction) after compression.
