Hi, I have a website where Google speed test shows very bad and says it should be loaded within 200 ms. However on webpagetest.org it shows that it is able to load in 13.26 ms. Then this should be within the limits of google, but not sure why the page speed still shows 65/100 only. can any one help me to understand this.
Document complete - 10.17 s
Fully loaded - 10.558
Not much difference between first view and repeat view. Can any one help. Here is my website http://myinvestmentideas.com
Hi, You are right when you say the performance is terrible on this site))
Server time:
1 - Looks like you are using Wordpress : Some plugins may slow down the site- disable one by one
2 - May sure memcache is Enabled
3 - Cache control for your html is not set correctly, on repeat view , it takes the same time to download your page ))
4 - You CSS files -you have like 8 kb of CSS - inline in in HTML head
5 - Favicons - you have two favicons and none of them is shown on the site)))
6 - THE MAIN EVIL - Facebook and TWITTER - these guys should be deffered on ONLOAD EVENT - look for this in net
7 - HTTPS for FB and twitter should be changed on HTTP , and also for this https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js
8 - do you really use Custom fonts? I think no
9 - By the way, you have too little of js, you can inline in HTML head
10 - Too many different domains
11 - too many redirects
and so On
Main idea: deffer all additional stuff on onload event, inine CSS and JS, Check Server settings.
Your site will be in 3-4 times feels faster

Hi, I have a website where Google speed test shows very bad and says it should be loaded within 200 ms. [/quote]It does not say that. NO site loads that fast. The 200ms is the targeted first byte time. Two Hundred, MILLIseconds. Ignore this figure.
The first thing you should do before anything else is compress the images and optimize the JPEGs. This will take 300kb right off of your 1.4 MEGAbyte page load. Next, you should leverage browser caching of static content - this is easily accomplished via .htaccess file, add this code to the top:<IfModule mod_expires.c>

</IfModule>You are getting good performance for simultaneous downloads, but you simply have ALOT of calls - 134 requests for each pageload. Find unnecessary items and take them out of the script.
As was said above, you have way too many third party calls - your site will only load as fast as the third party requests do. Try to eliminate as many of them as you can. Rule of thumb here - if they don’t generate revenue there is no compelling reason for them to exist.
You are slow mainly because you are fat. How fast do you expect 1.4 megabytes to load on a browser? Slim it down. You understand megabytes right? One megabyte is, one MILLION bytes.

Maybe to try CloudFlare?

[/quote]It’s never, ever been shown to help with speed, or pageload.
Number 3 and 10 on this list are really important. You need to go through each of these items methodically if you want to see a significant improvement. The Good news with Wordpress is that such improvements are possible without too much work.
