Render-Blocking JavaScript
Last week I asked if anyone knew how to alleviate what Google called "render-blocking javascript". And I got some responses from people who had seen the same message, evidently when looking to google for site speed testing.
Even though some had heard of this, no one knew what to do about it. Everyone was simply confused by it all.
This past week I contacted a man here where I live, who builds websites commercially, and has a couple of sites himself. He is actually an expert at it, and I can see from talking to him, he knows everything I could ever want to know about a website and about optimization, or anything like that.
He explained all about render blocking Java script. And he explained some things about how the text of your content appears to the search engines, as opposed to how the visual side of it looks.
He explained how TO word things in your content, and how NOT to word things. Things that I would never have dreamed of, but that had experience with.
Next week he's going to go over my site with me and move that render-blocking stuff and do a few other things that my site needs. In the meantime, he's told me to change a few things myself that I am callable of doing on my own. I'll let you all know how it works out.
My goal is to significantly speed up my site, and increase my rankings with Google with a few tweaks in the right places.
