My website is extremely slow to load
-
Hi, I’ve spent the past 2 weeks trying to optimise a website that I’m developing for a client. I’ve managed to bring it down to around 6 seconds for the homepage but this is still too slow for a modern-day website: https://tools.pingdom.com/#5d29d56e90800000
I’ll list the techniques that I’ve used so far:
– Moved to cloudflare CDN
– Implemented caching
– Removed unnecessary plugins
– Optimised all images to the point where the average size is around 20kb
– Loaded all fonts onto the site so it’s not having to pull from Google fonts
– Compressed all font files
– Used Asset cleanup to remove unwanted scripts on the page (I can’t remove anymore without breaking functionality)
– Updated PHP and all pluginsI shouldn’t have to upgrade the hosting server or change website builder (Divi) as I run another site on the same server which loads in 3 seconds with a page size of 8mb.
Bluehost can’t figure out why this site, in particular, is loading so slowly, I’d really appreciate it if someone could take a look at the report or suggest ways to improve the load time.

The given tips are really helpful but there are several reasons behind the slow speed of a website. but we can hire a web developer to fix it or we can fix it by ourselves. just follow the steps below.
1: Remove unused CSS script.
2: Remove unused Java script.
3: Remove unused HTML script.
4: optimize your images and reduce the size, you can use an image optimizer plugin.
5: Clear all the cache files once every week and daily if it’s possible.
6: Use a clear cache plugin.
