I think the real bottleneck here is the page speed, which is not really decreasable. The more images and also animations you use the worse it gets… even if you don´t have any elements on your page your loading speed will be far from ideal to get a good score here,

But it is what it is and you can just try to optimize, what is optimizable. For example look for your filesize of images/videos/graphics.

The other thing is to set up all elements with its right markups. text should be taged as h1,h2,h3,p… via “styles” to get crawled in the right manner. Also alt-image decriptions should be set and of course the decriptions and seo panel should be filled out.
