Thanks for your help James, I’ll contact the hosting provider to talk it through, and I’ll check the other websites you provided to try and improve the loading times I can control (site content/sliders, etc)

Just a note – I’ve disabled the Coming Soon plugin (10:25am) and will keep it off for a few hours in case anyone reads this and fancies a look at the site to see if they can suggest anything.

Thanks

Hi James thanks for replying, I can take the Coming Soon page down but it would need to be for a specific time window, so if you got back today I could take it off for you to look at.

In terms of the 1.5MB background image, that doesn’t really present a problem here for us because we can see this image (and other content) load in separately after the ginormous ‘wait’. It also hangs in the same way on the WordPress Dashboard (publishing/updating a page etc).

Our work internet isn’t very good so I think the wait time is a bit less from other computers but there’s still a significant ‘wait’ wherever you load it in from.
