Page Speed and SEO Question

jammallnyte · ‎05-11-2017

I have used several tools, google pagespeed the most recent and I see a consistant issue come up. Load speed and I see the following:

Minify CSS

Minify HTML

Minify Java Scirpt

I also see too many js files.

I know basic html but the reason I use Weebly is the easy drap and drop. So editing the css is an issue for me.

But my concern is that I bought a theme from a 3rd party (Roomey Themes) and I am curious if that could be part or the majority of the issues?

Could a poorly written theme from a 3rd party cause me these issues? Would I be better off using a weebly created theme?

I apperciate any advice or insight

There isn't really a way to change anything based on those recommendations from Google, although a site should load more than fast enough without doing those steps.

It is possible for a badly made third party theme to make a site load slower, particularly if it makes use a lot of large images or content pulled from other sites. You could probably try a standard theme temporarily to see if that improves things for you.

Side by side. Score dropped withh weebly theme; however the minify CSS and HTML passed. Still confusewd about Optimizing images as everyimmage I use has been done, must be the theme images

Your website loads in 1.03s [very good]. There are few YouTube Java scripts that need improvement [they have an impact on the load speed]. Please check the screenshot below:

Yes it does. I moved it to a different host and on wordpress. Amazing what a good hosting company can do for a website.
