What's up eveyone?
So, ive been working hard on my new blog for a month researching, building a strategy, writing articles.. And now when I started to check my site's speed, it's horrible.
Please I need your help I someone can take a look and see whats the problem: www.silly-hat.net
Do you think it has to do with my hosting server (mochahost)?

    Maybe you should wait. How long your site exist?

    Test it on here:

    https://tools.pingdom.com/

    You will be able to see what part of the page loading are taking the most time and work on reducing them.

    It doesn't look too bad, maybe compress the images a bit especially z27.jpg & cropped-26b.jpg. Also the load time for the connection to hostedimages-cdn.aweber-static.com for one of the images seems to be quite slow. Look into Browser caching too...

    On the whole not too many issues from what I can see. Better hosting may help, but not sure it will make too much difference for such a simple site.

    Hope this helps.

    You can remove some nonessential plug ins, and delay loading images (using javascript or jQuery).
    And, as Ben Friedman said, you can optimize your images.

    Seemed to load okay for me, at least the home page.

    If you want another test, try using https://testmysite.thinkwithgoogle.com .

    You get a report on how your site works on mobile, along with tips to fix any problem areas.

    I just checked, took ~4 seconds to load and you have just the "hello world" post on there?

    Load time was fast for me, too.

    It's not 'super important' - it's a site under construction. No content or blog posts, just some random unlinked "to do list", "cell phone" and blue "alphabet soup" images plus an overly large header image.

    Finish building the site and then see how it works. I don't see anything wrong with your hosting - may be your isp is slow. Complete your website and then see how it loads.

    Loaded fine for me.

    If you saw a problem, it could have been your ISP / network hiccup.

    Check out the tools that others recommended. Both are good ones.
