    Caching only goes so far. You need to take a look at what is taking the most resources during page load and try to optimize or remove those elements if they are unnecessary:

    There are several thing you can do to speed up your blogs load time One you can remove any unnecessary plugins. deactivate all of your plugins and see how fast your blog loads. Then turn them on one at a time and check the speed of your load time every time you reactivate one.

    It could also be your theme. This is what I would check first. Go to plugins and deactivate all of them. then go to this site www.vidasvegas.com/ - Website Speed Test - PageScoring.com or really any site speed testing site and test the speed with only one element.

    Then test your plugins like I mentioned above one at a time.
    I have tested every theme I used and found the theme has a lot to do with load times. The best theme I tested was Socrates.

      You can install P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler) temporarily and let it determine each plugin's loading time, then deactivate/remove once done

    I think FeedBurner might be your problem. I'm seeing a 27 requests taking 55-60ms each in Chrome's Inspector.

    And Inspector is also telling me the CSS file below is taking 6.90 seconds out of your website's total 10 seconds to load. That might be your problem as well.

    The speed of a website does not only impact the seo but it also bounce the users to other websites. Google give more weight to the websites with fast loading speed. If you want to improve the speed of your WordPress website, then you need to use the following tips:
    1. Choose a good web host for your website
    2. Optimize the images: too many images slow down the website speed
    3. Use a cache plugin: Your website speed usually slow up when the number of users visiting your website increases. To fix this issue, use cache plugins.
    4. Optimize the database tables: The database also needs to be optimized to increase the speed.
    5. Remove inactive plugins from your WordPress website.
    6. Split your website comments into pages.
    7. Use HTML and Java-script compressors
    8. Use faster slider plugins: Slider plugins are also one of the reasons to slow down the website speed.

    Your site could also be facing a bot problem. Bot traffic can consume your resources and slow down your site.

      How to get rid of bot traffic? Each day in my photography forum I got almost 50+ visits from Russian and Ukrainian bots. Tried in Analytics but in vain. May be I didn't follow correct steps.

    Your template is coded really messy. Font resizing on page load. I'm pretty sure if I went into the code, I would find many inefficiencies.

    Hello, 2 bets option to speed up your blog.

    a) use only plugins that you need and try to remove any other plugin that you don't need.
    b) do not install to many themes and plugin this will slow your website a lot.
    c) update your wordpress to the latest and plugins also.

    U can install any other plugin it may help a little but again you will have same issue with loading time, however removing necessary theme and plugin will speed your website and load much faster. Thank you.

    Look up A2 Optimized WP plugin. It's designed for a certain hosting company but it is possible to install on any website. It basically takes most of the suggestions people have already given in this thread, and gives you one place to click and enable whatever caching or other features you want.

    Go through the list of warnings and see where else you can optimize. You can ignore the warning that it isn't hosted on A2 - that's just their way of trying to get a sale. It's perfectly fine on whatever host you have currently.

    Use a caching plugin like W3 Total Cache, enabled varnish caching on your server

  • There can be quite a few things that slow down page loads and here are my 2c:
    1) Find out if the problem is due to server misconfiguration. Try a different hosting/server provider
    2) Make sure images aren't slowing down your website - there are quite a few WP plugins for that
    Modifying functions.php in WordPress
    To handle image compression go to the functions.php file in your WordPress theme and add the following:

    add_filter( 'jpeg_quality', create_function( '', 'return 80;' ) );
    The number (80) stands for the percentage level of compression that is applied automatically to newly uploaded images. Inputting this field, however, wont affect your previous uploads. Read this article for more details.

    Automatic Image Optimization
    If you dont want to optimize images manually or mess with the code there are quite a few plugins for that. The most popular is WP Smush.it. Not only does it automatically compress all images you upload, but it also allows bulk-optimizing existing visuals, which is a huge advantage. Another good plugin for lossy image optimization is EWWW Image Optimizer.

    Other popular options include CW Image Optimizer, Imsanity and Hammy.

    Hope it helps
