Hi there,
Any chance you can link us to the site in question?
You can edit the original topic and use the private URL field.
Let me know 🙂
I edited my post with my url in it. You should see it now.
David and I both tried loading your site on our mobile phone and it loads pretty fast for us.
The things that didn’t load right away are the ads which GP doesn’t have any control over.
Let me know if this helps 🙂
The videos do load slower than others. as well as tweets.
You can try the link below to see, its just one example, it happens on all video included posts:
Yup tried it and it just looks like
<iframe>link loads a bit slower as it takes more resources – this should be the same regardless which theme you used though.But overall the site still loads really fast to me – just a small delay in loading the video link.
Keep in mind one of the biggest factors in the speed of your site is how good your hosting is.
I think its the theme related issue, you may want to dip it more. Before I switch the theme, everything loads equallly slow or fast. In fact with this theme, everything is lightning fast, the videos do shows up slowly. My host is 1and1 and my dedicated server is high end and pretty advanced with SSD. thats why you see my site loads pretty fast.

I just ran a couple speed tests on that page. The ads on the page are taking the longest to load.
For example, run the page through this tool: https://gtmetrix.com/
Then look in the “Waterfall”. Scroll down and look at all the resource with the largest purple bars – they’re all ad providers.
This is because each of them makes a request to a third-party server in order to display the content (ad). Each of those requests will slow down your website depending on how fast their hosting is.
The actual theme elements of your website are tiny and are taking minimal time to load.
But the ads shouldn’t affect the video to appear slower. Everything else is loading the the same pace. Can you fix this issue, other theme doesnt make the video appear slower.

Hi there,
like the Ads videos are a 3rd party server request which isn’t governed by the theme. Testing the site over 3 and 4g networks i am not experiencing the issue report. However, if you want to reduce the speed impact of videos loading, then i personally use this method of adding them:
