Time to Interactive

The lean time for a webpage to load should be at most 10 seconds, but with website X5, this is going for beyond 10 seconds and that creates a bad user experience, can anyone provide tips on how to solve this issue.

Hello Joseph,

Each user case will be completely different.  Can you provide a link so that we can analyse your specific website and make appropriate suggestions?

In most cases slow loading times are due to too many images, images not sufficiently optimised, slow loading scripts, or factors related to the webhosting (e.g. poor upload speed, inefficient servers).

Kind regards,

Paul

Hello.

"Each user case will be completely different." - I completely agree.

"an anyone provide tips on how to solve this issue." - In general, you need to work on the overall site loading speed.

Joseph, I loaded each of your sites and they all took 5 seconds or less. The connection to your internet may be on the slow side??

None the less, the last thing to display in each case is the full width "background" images, could it be that these are unnecessarily large? For my sites I resize such images to 1200px wide. WX5 also offers techniques to optimize both image sizes and  your site in general (step1, website optimization and seo)

ALSO

Under step 5 export the project there is an option to reduce the resolution of large images (I only recommend doing this once). Once you have created the iwzip simply restart wx5 and import it (this will NOT overwrite your existing project).

Please use step 5 export project often (without image comression)! It is the ONLY reliable backup and you can rename the iwzip (add date) at time of creation.

Hello Joseph,

I agree with Gordon (Esahc) regarding the images, they can definitely be compressed further.  This image, for example, is enormous in web design terms:

http://www.pcm.co.ug/images/1797.JPG

It is coming in at 2.2MB

However, the biggest issue that I notice with all three sites is the complete lack of support for browser caching.  If you implement this it will make a major difference.

Have a word with your webhost.  They should be able to help you get this working.  Or you might be able to find further information in their knowledgebase:
