How to improve website loading speed?!
-
Hello,
My website has been live for nearly two weeks and I am realising that the loading time is quite slow (especially for mobile). Images seem to load at the same time (and last), which makes for an unimpressive first impression when first visiting the site.
I understand that Wordpress isn't the speediest CMS but how can I be sure it is absolutely optimised?
Notes:
- All images uploaded between 1500px - 1800px
- Lazy load is turned ON but it doesn't seem to have any effect on images in my Carousel slideshows?
- Cache-ing is good but I'm talking mostly first time impressions
Any tips on how to improve the speed of my website much appreciated, thanks!

let me know how you go
Before you post:
- When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
- Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
- Disable all Plugins
- Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"
This often solves issues you might run into
When you post:
- Post a link to where the problem is
- Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
- If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
