Hey, @habana89s.
Thank you for bringing your question to our Community forums. I completely understand the importance of increasing your store speed. I’m happy to provide some suggestions!
To gather some more context, may I ask which theme you are using? Typically, there are 4 culprits if your customers are experiencing slow loading times:
I recommend checking out this Shopify document in regards to Improving your online store speed, as it contains many great suggestions. If you are using a free Shopify theme, our team may be able to help with basic performance improvements. You can learn more about the support available, in our Support for themes document.
You may also consider hiring a Shopify Expert. I recommend checking out an Expert that specializes in theme customizations, such as the Experts listed here.
In the meantime, how has everything been going with your business? If there is anything else I can help with, please let me know!

Hey luna,
Thanks for your answer, im currently using impulse theme, I have 17 app running and im using them, actually all 4 culprits apply to my store, but I designed my store so good that I don't want to change the designs or filles, I was hoping that i can optimize my store even with all the features included. Thanks for the list of Shopify experts, ill be looking into that. 😊
Thanks in advance.

Hey,
I was thinking, could also be mu plan subscription to Shopify? Im only using the basic plan, if I upgrade, could that make my store faster??
Hey, @habana89s.
That's a great question! Upgrading your plan won't increase your store speed as it relates to Shopify's code and infrastructure (for all three plan options) along with the things I've outlined above, for reference: Improving your Online Store Speed. Shopify is constantly making improvements, some of these improvements might be reflected in your speed score. However, upgrading does come with the perks of many features that are outlined here: Shopify Pricing.
Please let me know if you have any questions about that, I'm happy to help.
