Improving page load speeds

Permalink 1 user found helpful
Hi folks,

I'm working on trying to speed up my page load speed @http://www.cityweb-consulting.com/....

In firebug I notice some javascript and jquery scripts are taking a long time to load, like this one: http://www.cityweb-consulting.com/concrete/css/jquery.rating.css?v=... This apparently is related to some cookie that has the name of another site I built under a different domain on my server. Normal?

Thanks for your insights!!

John

Try adjusting the cache settings in the site settings, I have been having the same issues.

Hmm make sure its enabled, but I would optimise it after having a look at it.

You could do things like
Host JS scripts on free fast servers such as Google, remove tables, clean up code and optimise images.

Concrete5 JS library is quite slow loading mind you

Search the forums for "MISER" and "Tinifier" -- two different components that compress and minify js/css for you (first one is more robust but non-free for commercial use, second one is less feature-packed but totally free/unrestricted license for any situation).
