smiles1976 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Hi, I'm using a chrome browser. When I visit other websites, they open quite fast. However, sometimes my site seems to drag. Especially, when I click on one of the product images on my site. Is there any way to speed up my site? Here is a link to my site: www.wearthename.com Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Patron Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 you should also enable gzip and browser cache, there are plenty of topics on how to accomplish this, see this: http://www.prestatraining.com/gzip-compression-browser-caching/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OC2PS Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 If you want detailed analysis, use YSlow or PageSpeed. In general, the good folks above have identified and pinpointed the big issues. Another thing worth considering is where you are hosted. If your site's target audience is in India but your datacenter is in Chicago, that may delay some as well...
