Description
Pete's website loads slowly. How can he speed it up? Pete's site is http://www.elfboxes.com/.
I recommend a bunch of resources in this episode. Bluehost is a great option for a shared server: http://askpat.com/bluehost. Resize large pictures with http://picresize.com/.
Check your load times with http://gtmetrix.com/, http://yslow.org/, and http://whichloadsfaster.com/. Two WordPress plugins that can help are W3 Total Cache (https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/) and W3 Super Cache (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/). Finally, the CDN I recommend is http://www.maxcdn.com/.
Do you have a question about your website? Record it at http://www.askpat.com/.
