hello readers welcome back to khatriscreation today i will tell you a best blogging tips .how to reduce your blog loading time.tips are very useful to everybody .this tip is also very useful to everybody so there are 6 ways to reduce your blog loading time...............
Decrease the size of the images using smush it plugin. Smush it is a service from Yahoo that is used to compress images without losing the quality of the image.
If you have png files to be uploaded I prefer TinyPNG that is the best tool to compress the images without the loss of quality.
load images when the reader scrolls to the bottom of the blog rather than load all the images at once. This way you get a lot of time to load images without affecting the quality of user experience.
now here are the steps
- Optimize your images
how to do it......
2. Do not show too many posts on your homepage.
Most themes have the option to limit the number of posts displayed at the homepage. Do limit yours at 7 or at the most 10. I wouldn’t suggest you infinite scroll (used to load every post on the homepage) if you really want your website to load faster.
3. Get your codes minified..
When you do an analysis of your page speed with Pingdom or any other tool they show you what element on your site took how much time.
You can then clearly see that certain HTML codes including your flashy social subscribers widgets, CDATA sections, and other java scripts take significant time to load. Sometimes your theme might also contain certain CSS element that are not really necessary. You should remove all these elements.
4.Use a better host.
Self-hosted WordPress blogs have an advantage of choosing their own web host. When it comes to hosting your site you would never want to host on a server that is crappy with no or poor support.
For small size blogs, I recommend using Hostgator or Bluehost. But if you are looking for a professional hosting which can dramatically decrease your loading time, then I recommend you to go with TrafficPlanetHosting........
5. Remove unwanted plugins
WordPress users have an advantage over blogger blogs due to the fact there are millions of plugins which help them do things they can never imagine doing on blogger or WordPress.com blogs. But sometimes advantages can be the reason of one’s undoing.
Many of us install way too many plugins that eat up a lot of our server resources and render our blog slow. Here are some tips you should keep in mind while using WordPress plugins:
- Disable unwanted plugins: Try uninstalling plugins like blogger importer (if you have ever imported your blog from blogger to WordPress you tend to have forgotten to uninstall this), All in one favicon (try uploading the favicon into the theme), too many social share plugins, Pinterest pin it plugin (you can use the shareahoilc plugin that has a pin it button for images by default).
- Use a single plugin doing the task that require a bunch of plugins: Many of us use different plugins like one for sharing, one for creating a mobile version of our site and lots more. I suggest using jetpack plugin to do them seamlessly. Another example is you can stop using separate analytics, sitemap and SEO plugins by using the yoast plugin that has all these functionality.
Having java scripts like the social flows from twitter or Google plus can be a huge factor to increase your blog loading time. You can put your JavaScripts like the Google analytics code in the footer section which will make your blog load faster by itself loading after all your content has been displayed.
If you are using Genesis theme, then go to Genesis options and paste your JavaScript codes in the footer area.
