So finally after months of tweaking I have the site as I want it to be, the design is perfect and all the extra functionalities/apps are installed.
And now it says it is slower than avarage shops? Like what the hell? You pay for all the apps, and you work hard to make the site nicer and then it get’s slower as well??
I can’t really undo everything because my site will look to basic, and my images are not big at all size wise.
So what can I do to make this score better? Or is it not important? if I browse to my site I don’t feel it is to slow at all?
Hope someone can enlighten me on this one!
I hear you. Same thing happened to me but I didn’t check the original speed. You said it get’s slower. What was the speed before? If you don’t know then add a fresh theme and check it. I use the free Supply Theme and it is something like 29 out of the box (forgot exactly). The feel of it is definitely not slow to use though but I don’t know how or if I am penalised by google. I don’t think so. Is yours still fast to use. Many people might quit out if they have to wait more than a second if they are not all that interested. That is kind of from research but also just my opinion. I think it mainly depends on if it loads in a second or less to avoid people hitting that ctrl-w which I love. If you are still worried then some apps will slow it down because they are accessing external servers. Instead of removing one at a time to check, you might go into the code and remove the code that makes it run/display and recheck the speed. It is often a one liner.
Yeah there more I look at it the more I think the speed score is just flawed actually
Gee yeah I just clicked on some things and it was all instant! Looks great. The speed comes from the same link that google links to and if I remember it is called Page Speed Insights.
