Thanks James for your prompt response.
I have already checked these sites and i am not getting on how to improve it, as i do not know about the technical part of wordpress website, so i am only dependent on the plugins.
Can you please help or suggest in improving this.

Does your hosting provider offer Google Pagespeed?

No, it’s a simply GoDaady hosting.

Ok, that would be the easiest way to clear up the “Defer parsing of JavaScript” that GTMetrix is complaining about. To be honest, I wouldn’t recommend any other way, so best to skip that.

Your only other problem, and to be honest your biggest problem, is the nearly 2-second time to first byte (TTFB). TTFB is how long it takes your server to simply say to the browser “Oh hi there, I’m a server.” Nothing loads until that first byte is hit. (see the WebPagetest results or the Waterfall tab at GTMetrix)

You site is loading in about 5 seconds, and the first 2 seconds of that are spent simply waiting for the server to acknowledge that it has a job to do.

The only people who can improve your TTFB is your hosting provider, and to be honest, they might not on a shared hosting provider, they simply might not be able to with so many other active sites on the same server using the same resources.

In short, 5 seconds isn’t bad. You can almost cut that in half by improving the TTFB, but you’ll have to ask GoDaddy about that.

ok thanks for your guidance. I will talk about the issue with my hosting provider. I will again be needing your help if it won’t work.

You’re welcome!

@veenasharma I’ve deleted your identical topic, please do not create duplicate topics for the same thing.

Ok Jan. I think this topic closed is closed that’s why i have created a new one.

Ok so as James mentioned that i am having a problem in TTFB so i have asked my hosting provider to look into it and he increased the bandwidth of my website and reduced the server response time, but still my website is loading slow.

Can you please let me know if it can be resolved with any plugin, i have w3 total cache already installed on my website, will the new plugin clash with the w3 total cache, or what else can be done to increase the loading speed.

Website is : https://www.monkeyteller.com

It might be time for a better host. ??

https://www.webpagetest.org/result/160114_W0_YMA/ is showing 1.5 seconds TTFB on the first view, and 2.2 on the second!

That second page load was 4.9 seconds total, so if you had a decent TTFB, like 0.2 seconds, your total load time would have been only 2.9 seconds.

Additionally https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.monkeyteller.com/TcPUyZBG also reported 2.2 seconds TTFB.

Just looking at everything but TTFB in those reports, you’ve done all you can. The only thing left to do is get yourself on a server that takes less than 2 seconds to simply reply with “Oh yeah, I’m a server.”

Hi James, Thanks for helping me. I have again some doubts which i want to clarify:

www.monkeyteller.com

Can you please suggest the following points?

1) My website is getting a lot of time to load. Is this the theme specific issue. Also request you to please suggest how can I improve the website loading.

2) My adsense is getting disapproved. I am unable to recognize the reason why is it happening again and again. I used the ad position as one in top bar, and 2 in side bar. But this time I want the 3 ads as one in top bar and 2 in between the articles. Can you please suggest which is the best plugin to use to have the ads according to our convenience in the post.

Thanks in advance!!

1. Run your site through the same 2 services mentioned in the first reply for suggestions. If you’re absolutely sure it’s the theme, see if there is any improvement under the Twenty Sixteen theme.

2. It’s been many years since I’ve used any, so I recommend trying some of the higher-rated free ones compatible with WordPress 4.5 until you find one you like.

So these are the details with WebPagetest

Load time: First View: 14.461 sec, Repeat view: 5.526 sec

First Byte: First View: 5.593 sec, Repeat view: 2.117 sec

While Gtmetrix showed Page load time: 3.9 sec

I am using a smart mag theme, so if it is server issue then which server should i go for either of godaady or something else ??

What more i can do to improve my website and to be compatible for Adsense.

Thanks

Each report displays suggestions, follow those.

This is what i am trying to follow from last 7 months, unfortunately i have not been able to resolve it till date.

I am not too much technically sound so dependent on only plugins, if you can please look at the reports once and can suggest me on high priority issues and methods to resolve those.

Many Thanks
