Why these scores are different so huge?

GTMetrix emulates Google Pagespeed Insights & ySlow engine. They used to be 100% similar in many cases but lately Lighthouse takes into account the Lab Data as well.

First Contentful Paint, First meaningful paint etc etc. These factors play a huge role on mobile devices.

GTMetrix only takes account of pageload and DocumentLoaded state.

Also, GTMetrix is having limited locations on which you can check your website.

Therefore, you see those differences.

In my humble opinion pagespeed insights is the most accurate tool.

How can I raise google pagespeed score?

Well, there are a lot of things you can still do to increase pagespeed score.

Personally I'd check the Images first. take a look at here for example: https://www.imghaste.com/pagespeed/958283cc-b2d6-47d2-a569-fc23c62604d1

After having those images Well optimized, run the the report again.

Next thing you can do is add a lazy load mechanism, there are unlimited plugins that offer lazy load functionalities.
