Issues Causing Load in website

  • Heavy Theme: It is found that many people love to use high graphics theme in their website to make it more attractive and eye catching. But I tell you my friend such heavy theme not only downgrade your website speed but will also effect your optimization.
  • Installing lots of plugins: It is found that many people install many useless plugin in their website which are of no use. Installing such plugins result in increase in size of My-Sql database and hence make your site to go down. I’ll personally advice not install useless plugins in your site, just install the important and basic plugins only. (Click here to see list of useful plugins)
  • Deleting old comments: It is always advisable to delete the old comments, as comments also increase the size of database and slows down your site. You can also keep check on spam by going in SETTINGS -> DISCUSSION -> Comment Required Moderation .
  • Use Wp-Cache plugin and Clean Options Wp- plugin: These two plugins are just awesome, install and use these two plugin you’ll definitely see a difference in the performance of your website. As Clean Options plugin is a bit difficult to understand, you can follow this link to understand how to use this plugin- http://parasbabbar.in/speed-up-your-wordpress-site-with-clean-options-plugin.
  • Don’t provide download content on your site: Don’t use your server to provide downloads, always its better to use file hosting sites. In file hosting site ex. ZIDDU.COM, you can make your account for free and can upload your content on this site and can simply provide download link on your site, this will help you keep your database light.
  • Use Compressed Files on your site: In every theme there are CSS files which take lot of time to load (only in some cases) so you can use these files by even compressing them. Follow this link http://www.cssdrive.com/index.php/main/csscompressoradvanced/ this is an online tool which automatically compresses your CSS file code and you can replace the original code with the compressed one.

NOTE: Before replacing the CSS code, please keep the original file with you as a backup on your system, in-order to deal with any future problem regarding the CSS files. You can simply download the CSS file (the original one) and can keep it as a backup. And once your backup is ready you can replace it with the compressed one. I have done this thing and yes my site loading time has reduced.
