My website speed is low even after uploading your template

Hi there,

There are quite a lot of things involved on why the performance score is low.

The most obvious ones are:

- The site's assets are not optimized.

Solution: Get an optimization plugin to address this. Most users here use WP Rocket, LiteSpeed cache or Autoptimize.

- The site's response time is slow

Solution: Normally, you address this by changing to a better quality host.

- Large image size.

Solution: Manually reupload a compressed version of the image or get an image optimization plugin to do it for you.

Thanks for reply.
I would like to tell you recently I have transferred the entire website to another hosting
There is no problem of server speed on that website.
Check it out by clicking on the link given below
https://gtmetrix.com/reports/fastgyan.com/SOly1umL/
and i have also installed the plugin with litespeed
my image size is too small
But still my website speed is low after uploading your template
But if I use any other paid template then I see the speed a little better there
so please tell me why my speed is low even after uploading your template

Hi there,

GeneratePress job is to provide the templates for which your content is displayed, like all themes, what it cannot do is magically fix the performance issues related to the content and code that you add to your site. It first off doesn't know what you have added, and if it did, it wouldn't interfere with that code.

The PSI reports provides you with a list of Opportunities and Diagnostics that display and explain the performance issues of your site. Look under Diagnostics you will see:

Reduce the impact of third-party code
Minimize main-thread work
Reduce JavaScript execution time

All of which carry a large Time value. And the majority of them are 3rd Party Advert Scripts.

On that note I inspected your site, And i see this in the <head> of your site:

The code i highlighted in red, all advert scripts, which are being injected into your site via proxy services, WordPress and the theme is not involved in that code being added.

Then before the closing </head> you have a bunch of preload links for advert scripts.

All those scripts have to be downloaded and executed, as well as deal with all the code that those codes generate.
You can get a better picture of that here on a Web Page Test:

Thanks to all those advert scripts the browser has to handle 229 network requests (!!!!) and compile all that code before it can even begin rendering the LCP element.

To resolve the issue you need to review how you're loading your adverts, if you want better PSI scores then you should defer the loading of advert scripts, currently they are the top priority and your page loading will never improve whilst that is the case.

The problem you have shown me by a screenshot
I can't solve that problem myself
can you help me
If I give you admin panel of WordPress can you solve my problem

In addition to what David said: Google services notoriously slow down a website. How much this will effect your site depends on where your server is. I am located in Germany. So, all requests go a long way to servers in the US. This will destroy the performance of most websites. This is why I try to avoid Google services on customer websites. This is not an option for you, I guess. :-)

Hi Mayank,

we don't do development work on a users sites.

If Google search for "How to stop google adverts slowing my wordpress website" you will find lots of articles and tutorials on the issue.

Hi Mayank,

Your site speed on mobile seems good now. May I know what you did to improve your mobile speed? I'm having the same issue but have no clue how to fix it yet. Your reply would be appreciated.

Thanks.
Camilla

Hi Camilla,

if you want to raise a new topic, and share a link to your site we can take a look and provide some advice.

Thank you David. I'll raise a new topic.
