Site speed issues – help/advice?

  • Move every <script> to footer. Don’t insert it yourself in header.php, but use enqueue_script.

    Remove #404 JS scripts from page – browser have to check them as they are linked in.

    Join little scripts into one file and minify it (you could let not-minified version for yourself for future if you need edit file).

    What’s are those wp-content/cache/wpfc-minified JS on your site? Seems like theme/plugin crap.

    You could minify CSS files (of course let non-minifed version for yourself), even plugins’ CSS files if rarely updating.

    Oh my… You have many many unnecessary JS on page!

    Also image that search engine have no JS enabled. So as I see, it have every post from begin! Why you don’t use pagination? Also ordinary user is not interested in so many post at one moment. You should give less post to users. If they were interested, they will load more. Many of often visitors just looking on latest as they are visiting page few/one time a day.

    Login and share buttons in header sucks on mobile – it’s too small for my young fingers, so what with older fingers that are even twice big as mine?!
    I suggest increase size of them, add some padding and margin.

    Remove unnecessary line-breaks and spaces from <head>, it’s some KB.

    On summary – it’s quite much if you are not familiar with inside-programming. Our theme gives the worst job. Only if you can’t do it yourself, give someone money to do this.

    Thank you so much odie2 for your response!! Very helpful. We just redid our homepage so hopefully some of these issues have been fixed. I’d love it if you could take a look and let me know if you see any issues that we should still take care of.

    Thanks again, and Sean do you have a contact email?

    Usability seems nice. The same structure (without CSS), so it will be nice for screen readers and search engines.

    But it seems like you have too fast closed <head> tag so that’s why you have code printed on top of page.

    Also JS scripts still needs improvements.
