Page loads very slow according to Google

[pioneer_1]

Can anyone give me any pointers for this site. I have JCHOptimize on and set it as best as I could.

Im trying everything...

You have a few very large JS files (that seem to be a cache) that are being used on your website. Are you sure you need them all? Eliminating unused JS will instantly raise your score.

Enabling gzip compression will help with the score, but technically gzip compression is no longer a necessity if your target market is on high speed (gzip compression also has some adverse effects and can put some load on your server).

you can use websites like gtmetrix which will tell you what is slowing down your site.

if you are using a htaccess file, there are loads of optimisations you can do with this also.

I have the same issue and I have done the following perfomance boost

1. Install Gzip
2. Page Cache
3. .htacces optimization rule
4. my joomla and extentions all up todate

What am I missing? Please help!

Set Expire headers in htaccess makes a very big difference... for returning users at least HA!

Thanks thesinger313,

I tried that but it does not seem to help much.
not sure if having the host server in USA and majority of users are in Vietnam effect the speed.
