    Hi. My website is becoming more slower every single day. PageSpeed Insights Score: 28 Mobile/ 61 Desktop. I have tried everything from WP forums and advice from Web Diagnostic providers, but without, or small results. I use:
    -WP Fastest Cache
    -Cloudflare
    -AMP
    -Smush
    Why I have that big speed problem and how can I fix it? Thanks!

  • A few things.
    1) Who are you hosted with?
    2) Be sure cloudflare is hosted correctly.
    3) I have never had good experiences with Fastest Cache. W3TC or Hummingbird tend to work better.

    I am not seeing such low scores but, I would.

    First check the site at GTmetrix for some issues related to redirect chains. fix those first.

    1. First disable the Cloudflare CDN (temporarily).
    2. Deactivate JetPack’s Photon and Lazy Load.
    3. Deactivate Smush.
    4. Use the full capability of Cloudflare.
    5. Then, turn Cloudflare CDN back on making sure to clear cache there first.
    6. Re-run the tests.

    You may want to consider that both sharethis and the priv marketing addons are slow.

    I agree with the above — get rid of privy. It is the cause of many of your issues. You can also speed up your site by not loading so many “platform” scripts (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc) on your homepage.

    I routinely block privy with Adblock, and as a test, I also blocked all the “platform” scripts you’re using. Your site loaded almost instantly! So you have some tough decisions to make…

    Yes, everything was from privy and social share icons. Thanks for your help!
