Speed concern using Oxygen Theme

Trusting this letter finds you well. I would like to increase the speed of my website as it is super slow (including the back end wp-admin). If I can achieve results like https://superbalist.com/ I would be grateful.

Looking forward for your urgent and well considered response.

Regards

Terrence

    Hello Terrence

    You didn’t mention your site URL, so I am assuming your attached domain with hub is the domain you are talking about: echo******on.co.za

    I have checked your site in pagespeed and found it’s average. The most important two things you can work on are:

    1. Eliminate render-blocking resources: This is something you can work on your site. If you go to Asset Optimization page within HummingBird, you can try moving scripts and css files into footer one by one, and every time you need to check and confirm that nothing breaks. Sometimes, moving script to footer breaks some functionality, so you need to check each time you move a script.

    2. Reduce server response times: This is something you can’t work on. This actually depends on the server. You need to have a better and faster server which have more memory and better processing speed. Some website needs a dedicated server or VPS or a WordPress managed server for better response time. So, you have to deal with your host to improve in this section.

    About the speed of wp-admin, you can’t do much on this. There is no plugin to optimize the speed of admin end as well as there is no caching. But here are some tips that you can try:

    Hope it helps! Please feel free to ask more questions if you have any.

    Have a nice day!
