page speed issues
Permalink
Hi all,
Having major issues with page speed on my site. are there some general solutions that could help. I have a developer and when I ask him to make changes to improve page speed based on google page speed insights (or others) suggestions, he dismisses them and says its not possible without re-doing the site.
What can I do? I would appreciate any help or advice.
Thanks

Hi image , js Css and leverage browser cache things can be improved. So you have cPanel hosting ?
Hello,
I don't know your site or what version of C5 you are using but if your speed issues are concerning and Page Speed is giving you lots of red flags, it is safe to say there is most likely something that can be done without redoing the whole site.
As you have posted this to the job board are you looking to hire someone for this?
If you do, like c5freelancer said, providing your website address could allow you to get answers quickly.

You dev could at least set browser caching and gzipping correctly.
He could also implement something so you don't have to load a 1.5Mb image, especially on mobile.
But more importantly, you should ask him if there's any reason why he doesn't update Concrete5. You have a really outdated version that came out years ago and there have been several bug and SECURITY fixes since then.

Having said so, as far as I'm concerned the website loads pretty fast and I am on a slow Adsl connexion
Not having a 1.82mb picture on the front page might help
Try updating to version 5.6.3.5 at least.
Try putting ALL scripts in the footer.
Try putting all font calls in a css file.
Add ‘Vary: Accept-Encoding’, ‘Last-modified’ or ‘ETag’ and resolve your site url’s ‘www.housinghand.co.uk’ and ‘housinghand.co.uk’ with a 301 in your .htaccess file. See more details at seositecheckup
Minimise redirects.
Dims are missing from images.
Try using online tools to isolate issues:

See attached modified image. Original 5.7MB, mod 241KB
