Gauravk Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 From time and time again, we have this ongoing fight to bring the homepage load time lower. With almost all the recent changes we did, we are exceeding quiet as much on pingdom load time and google page speed load time. Appreciate any help in lowering the current index page load time, please. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheddy Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I don't know if that's possible. Sounds to me like it's a bandwidth issue. But, I confess that I don't know the details about broadband and page loading. There are a number of factors. Such as content that's loaded into the page like images and embedded videos, the resources of your server where your site is hosted, whether the memory and CPU need to be upgraded. I would check with your webhost first and find out how much memory and what the CPU is, whether it's double or quad core. Before my webhost upgraded the servers with more memory and better CPU's, my server loads went from 10 down to under 1. Now, I don't have server loads anymore but because of my webhost's previous inability to admit the problem was on their end, my site would always get server load spikes between 10 and 100, which resulted in my site being shut down for what was obvious a problem with my webhost's reluctance to upgrade. Since they upgraded the servers, I haven't had a problem with server loads. I would also check your internet connection and the system you access your website from, they could be affecting your results (but this particular point, I'm not sure if that would affect your site). But, I would start by checking the servers of your webhost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gauravk Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 Thanks everyone for real quick replies and tons of help to explore. @Rheddy please find the details of my current 100% dedicated server for carnity below 2 x Intel Xeon (Quad-core) processor 32 GB Ram - DDR3 HardRaid 2 x 2 TB SATA @adlago thanks for the suggestion, do you mean for globalTemplate has Analytics, foxpush and Alexa JS that I need to move above the </body>....? Just confirming before the move. Btw, here is the pingdom test: https://tools.pingdom.com/#!/bVL8NC/https://carnity.com Does the video thumbnails make the homepage load slow...?

Adlago Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 See a video following this link https://gtmetrix.com/reports/carnity.com/MeV9JEAu#video and see how your resources are being loaded PP. Yes, move js Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gauravk Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 Thanks Adlago, I moved those 3 JS below and felt some difference. Any idea where is these two scripts and what they are doing? There are 2 JavaScript files served from pixel.adsafeprotected.com. They should be combined into as few files as possible. https://pixel.adsafeprotected.com/rjss/st/105178/17731383/skeleton.js https://pixel.adsafeprotected.com/rjss/st/105178/17731385/skeleton.js Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adlago Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 You can speed up your site if it uses optimized images. Use the results of this test - wait for it to finish. https://webspeedtest.cloudinary.com/results/170918_7E_e01a5316f4508ecf6cf3c66cc87db426 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gauravk Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 I have done so many things and page speed improved and now reached to 65 from 50 (before) and still says needs work. Any idea, on how to tackle these below major issues? Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content Your page has 11 blocking script resources and 11 blocking CSS resources. This causes a delay in rendering your page. Enable compression for non carnity network Compressing resources with gzip or deflate can reduce the number of bytes sent over the network. Reduce server response time In our test, your server responded in 0.62 seconds. There are many factors that can slow down your server response time. Leverage browser caching for non carnity network Setting an expiry date or a maximum age in the HTTP headers for static resources instructs the browser to load previously downloaded resources from local disk rather than over the network. 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 1.1KiB (58% reduction). Minifying https://carnity.com/…erface/jquery.easing.min.js?v=67215334a5 could save 1.1KiB (58% reduction) after compression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's a few days of analysis work, creating critical css for various browser resolutions, uniting in a common critical css, installing on a live site. Etc. This is not possible with free tips.

Gauravk Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 For compression, it's for non carnity network, can we still do something about it....? and I am on apache, not nginx. For JS and CSS, combining please send me quote in pm if you can help in this regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
