Karl,
I used a different speed test that gives a LOT of tips on each aspect of
the time to completion. There is a wealth of insight in the tips, in a
few cases they fizzle out (tips) but this list is awesome with feedback!
In my 1st test page load speed was 5.1 seconds, a second one 4.9 seconds.
https://gtmetrix.com/reports/tpsautoshippers.com/5MxjYmgX
The biggest takeaway in that was the first file took 1.2 seconds to be
requested and delivered. One site I have on shared hosting (about 1,500
sites total) loads the first file in 111 milliseconds, about 10 times
faster. I would try to get that below a 1/2 second, preferably 1/4
second (250 milliseconds).
I have target page load times of: non-profit (1.5 seconds or less); for
profit 1.2 seconds (usually have lots more trinkets, scripts and graphics).
On that test site a B minus grade on both tests (PageSpeed & YSlow) is
readily achievable with MOST themes PROVIDED your host allows GZIP for
all files AND has a caching firewall between the server and the Internet.
As to some of their 'advanced' score categories - few shared hosts allow
setting header expiration headers nor enitity tags. so don't swaet
trying for A minus or above, especially if you have multiple scripts and
css files loading.

Looks like its a varying degree. My test was a little quicker.

I guess I can look into gzipping the transfer. That's something I don't think
I've done.

Hi Karl,
I loaded the site on a Nexus 5 and the breakpoints seem to work fine. What
really stands out to me is the slow performance:
http://www.webpagetest.org/result/160130_65_54P/. It loaded very slowly.
I would focus on performance first, which does have an effect on seo.
I use chrome Vox to test with a screen reader.

Hi All,
I would really appreciate feedback from you guys on this WordPress website I just
finished. It "should" be responsive on most if not all screens and work on old
IEs as well.
Any tips for SEO would be great, but OT for this list, so send off-list if you
feel obliged. My SEO foo is rookie at best. Not sure how it works on assisted
devices, hoping it does.
I am actually excited to share, so If you run into any snags, let me know if
you would be so kind, but over all, what do you think? :)
TIA
