Loading time wordpress is way to bad

richardvw1

I just visited the link you’ve mentioned. The site took between 3-4 seconds to load, the most time was consumed by the initial response, which means, something on your site is taking too long to generate the HTML for homepage. It could be because of any plugin or even theme, but I can’t be certain about it. Though you can do one thing for now, you can use some caching plugin(like W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache or something like that) that will cache the pages generated and will serve the users with the cached pages, and they’ll be served faster to users, till you can figure out whats wrong.

Also I’d suggest you enable gzip compression on your server to compress the data being sent by the server, thereby speeding up the transmission of the page and resources.

Now to figure out what is causing the slow generation of pages on your site, I’d suggest you use xdebug profiler to see which functions are consuming most time/creating bottle neck on your site.

Thanks for your quick response Gagan.

I tried the plugin W3 Total Cache for the second time, once again it “broke” my menu bar. So I had to deactivate this plugin. All the other aspects I guess are above my technical knowledge ??

At this moment trying some other plugin to tackle this issue.

Still open for any other solution that works out for me.

EDIT: When I disable my fusionslider on the frontpage it will load just fine (about 2 secs.). So I probably need to resize the image in my fusionslider to solve this one?

Super slow for me – I gave up after about 30 seconds of spin cycle. Some insight might gained from the free website speed analyzers e.g. tools.pingdom.com; gtmetrix.com; developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/

Really slow, as @gagan0123 mentioned above, it is something on your backend blocking output.
Maybe some plugin trying to load something from external resources using blocking HTTP or something like that.
Try to disable plugin by plugin first, maybe you will have success to detect the problem.
Also, I can recommend using this plugin for detecting performance problem:

In most of the cases, it will show, what slow downing your site.

If you can not solve the problem yourself, you need to turn to the experts.
I can recommend a free website optimization services from this guys:

Thanks all for your replies.

I tried to turn off plugin by plugin, this one “Page Builder by SiteOrigin” turned out to be the problem.
