Thanks Philippe, I have ImageOptim and did crunch them. I will do again. As far as the Gzip, I agree, however I was told to split the css files up so there was less code to load and less load time. Mind you when the Gzip is in place it make more of a difference. Was I told wrong?? Thank you for

Sorry Philippe, The css you get to see was done by someone else. Most of my css "from scratch" is in the admin area. I did modifications to that css. You might be able to see the difference in style of writing. I cuddle my braces. So your saying put all the css for all users in on css file

Looks like its a varying degree. My test was a little quicker. http://www.webpagetest.org/result/160130_ED_5MQ/ I guess I can look into gzipping the transfer. That's something I don't think I've done. Best, Karl DeSaulniers Design Drumm http://designdrumm.com On Jan 29, 2016, at 9:08 PM,

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

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

Interesting. Thanks for the feedback. I am going to see what Gzipping the files and images is going to take. Right now I just replace the theme images with a fresh crunch and things are loading much quicker. Now I have to download all the images in the uploads folder and do the same. Thanks for

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
