Site Speed.
Hello WA World!
I decided to create this post because my website was SOOO slow.
After several hours of research, I found out what was the problems.
And the first thing that you must do, is to optimize your pictures. For this, I recommend WP Smush.it plugin. It's easy to instal and to operate. After I instal it, I optimize ALL (110+) of my pictures and the speed of my site increase dramatically.
The second thing is WP-Optimize plugin. The main aspect of this plugin is that it cleans all post revisions. Basically, Wordpress keeps all of your revision and drafts somewhere in your site and this slows the speed of your website.
And the last is W3 Total Cache plugin. This is one of the best plugins and you must have it on your site.
For all of this plugins, you will find tutorials on YouTube.
All I want to say is that before I installed these plugins, my site was very slow and the load time was between 15 to 30 seconds.
Now, 1,16 seconds, so you see the BIG difference.
The loading speed it very important, today, no-one have the time to wait for a site to load, especially a new one.
Thanks and I hope this will help.
I wish you all a good day!

Which speed is good to load for website?
As low as possible, but no more than 10 seconds.
Think about this way: How much time would you wait for a site to load? And then test your site speed and take proper actions.
Thank you. Mine loaded through 5 sec, but it new. I was told that it loaded between 71% other websites in the same speed. Regards.
My pleasure.
Perfect, keep it like this and everything will be ok.
I wish you a good day.
