How to Fix Slow Website Loading?

Your website worked fast for a long time, but suddenly pages started loading slowly. The wait can last up to 30 seconds, and you don't know how to speed it up? There is a solution.
First, check whether the slow loading is caused by a connection to some unknown service. Joomla developers add code to some templates and modules that collects statistics and sends them to a remote website. That website receives a huge number of requests from many servers and gets overloaded, so it blocks hosting providers' servers to stop the requests. But your website keeps trying to reach the developer's site, and this takes time – 30 seconds or more – until the connection times out.

Can website loading be sped up?

Loading speed depends both on the server and on the user. To improve it, first collect your website's metrics and find the real source of the problem. Once the cause is found, the website needs to be optimized. This may include:

• compressing data on your website's pages;
• optimizing images and fonts;
• caching data with various modules;
• Make sure your website does not load scripts from blocked domains, such as yandex.ru, vk.com, mail.ru
• Add indexes to the tables in your database
