Website extremly Slow

Each time i build a wordpress website, i optmize it and put it in a VPS.

However each time, we have at least 7s , 8s , 9s to load it’s painfull.

1st step check what is giving problems with gtmetrix, pingdom ttfb and install Query Monitor

2nd using cache and minify plugins, and combine requests to help the things that are working bad ( score goes from D/E to A , in pagespeed and Yslow ) ;

3rd after all the score improved i use lazy load , to don’t load all as soon as you open the homepage

In the score of my webpage, you can see that the thing that takes more time to load is the connect, before, anything appears it takes 7 to 10 seconds, if the site is optimized , and i use a vps, how can i improve the time to first byte ?

I tried for months in a lot of sites, but it’s being impossible.

Need advices

Thanks Pedro Santos

This was my first question in stack overflow i tried all the solutions that were suggested……

“Well after a quick scan through Pingdom and Metrix and I have a few questions.

admin-ajax.php is called upon twice, at 11 Seconds a go! Have a look in that script and see what’s happening. Are you calling to your Database in this script? If so what are you looking for? 5 bucks says your problem is in that file. Isolate it and see what’s happening.

Also you are calling in 46 separate JS files. That’s a lot and although you are minifying them, consider merging them as well.

Let me know how you get on…”

I tried hearbeat, w3 total cache, and several other cache systems, nothing works, atm to open the site it is taking 6 seconds or 7 seconds just to load.

What can i do? I ask flatsome they tell me its wpml, I ask Wpml they tell its them, i have a great server to run this, and it’s shamefull how can it be so slow.

Thanks for all of the help provided
