I ran a PageSpeed test with Google, which told me that my site was at 54% of what it should be :(

Hello Steve,
If the character set is not specified in the file then the browser will use the one decalred in the server and for this you will need to contact the hosting provider.

Please feel free to write back if you need more information.

Hello Steve,
It's not the font but the charset function to encode the text and the program atuomatically declares as charset UTF-8.
Many thanks!
