Tips for Speeding Up Your Web Site

Tips for Speeding Up Your Web Site is a Big But Easy to Understand List Which Are Definite Ways To Make Any WordPress Website Load Faster. We have published many articles on Page Speed Optimization, also, we will consider them in this article. Currently we are giving importance to Yahoo’s recommendations – which are Gold Standard throughout the World.

 

Tips for Speeding Up Your Web Site : Understanding Visually Loading Faster and Faster On Test

 

In real life, today, none uses a very slow Internet connection, all tests are done taking the users speed is medium. Practical fact for understanding Tips for Speeding Up Your Web Site is that – on browser a website in real life can seem to load faster than the other, despite they have the exact score and time of visually being complete. We only look at few elements of a webpage while it is first loading – we do not see upper fold of a webpage. Google’s tips and methodologies are not taken in to standard as their major need directly conflicts with W3C’s recommendations. Facebook, for example is one of the best example of optimized backend. Without a good backend score over 91/100 on webpagetest.org is never possible to achieve.

 

Tips for Speeding Up Your Web Site : The Unmodifiable Factors Which Makes a Webpage to Load Slower

 

Google’s CDN is not really geographically distributed like Akamai, nor their backend is great. Obviously, if you include scripts from Google’s any resource; invariably, from certain Geographical area, your Page Speed will be bad (slower loading). jQuery, Microsoft, Facebook uses Akamai; you can use their resource; but keep in mind – nothing is good than having control on your backend – a Javascript is equally dangerous like a .htaccess file is. You must test Redis Cache like modern caching system. We think its better to use Base64 Data URI Encoding than using images in the theme. Only one webpage test tool will be taken in to consideration :

The Unmodifiable Factors Which Makes a Webpage to Load Slower :

 

  1. All kind of Javascript based Ads including AdSense, Double Click Ads etc – they can introduce 404 resources too.
  2. Google Analytics Javascript (use Piwik self hosted solution)
  3. Google Fonts (use own CDN to serve fonts)
  4. All social buttons and their Javascripts – Google Plus, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Delicious and really you can add as many as you want. As we are not Google Plus, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest ourselves, we unfortunately can not remove them.
  5. Complex page structure for designing the layout
  6. Usage of SSL / TLS

 

Tips for Speeding Up Your Web Site

 

  1. Minimize HTTP Requests, take that most of the visitors has no browser cache. You should not think about the repeat view.
  2. Use Base64 URI Encoding for images, if not possible, use image sprites. Base64 URI Encoding makes the things more easier.
  3. Use multiple Servers and CDN to serve content. Google says the reverse – consistent url, Google themselves uses lot of different CDN containers. As because, the browsers can not handle more than 4-5 request from the same Fully Qualified Domain Name. If you are delivering 8 javascripts serially, you need to split to serve from 2 CDNs, otherwise there will be delay. You can check yourself.
  4. Cache-Control header is for dynamic contents and far future Expires header for static contents
  5. Use mod_deflate for Apache 2.x.
  6. Use the modified WordPress .htaccess for permalink
  7. Stylesheets should be at top and Javascripts should be at footer. This is W3C’s set specification.
  8. Use a load balancer, enable caching by load balancer and set DNS cache to maximum possible.
  9. PHP has the function flush( ) function. You must flush at least once (just below the header)
  10. iPhone caches, but iPhone won’t cache components bigger than 25K.
  11. Obviously you are using some Cache Plugin for WordPress
  12. Obviously, you will not use Database Cache if you have tweaked my.cnf
  13. Searching our website can give gratifying result.
  14. Host is important – only few are good.
