    Site Speed Issues

    Posted 12 years 2 months ago
    • Do you guys know of anything that can be done to speed up my sites? They all seem to be running pretty slow...

      Ex. www.powellgroup.com

      Thanks for the help!

    • I'm assuming you're using all the caching options/extensions so I'd suggest it was the server .. there are 150+ sites on it ..

    • Just so I know what I am doing is correct, what caching options/extensions do you prefer to optimize for page speed?

    • Grant,

      Here is a good thread that explains Joomla caching www.rockettheme.com/forum/index.php?f=15&t=92880&rb_v=viewtopic

      Hosting can have a lot to do with the performance of your Joomla site.

      I used to host sites with GoDaddy but I soon found out they are very slow for 2 main reasons
      A) their servers are way overcrowded. Go to www.yougetsignal.com/tools/web-sites-on-web-server/ to see how many other sites are hosted on your site's server.
      B) They use separate servers for their site files & their databases which slows down a database driven site. Does your site use localhost or a different server name for the database? If your site uses localhost to access the database then it is kept on the same server as the site files.

    • GRant,

      I went to this address viewdns.info & did a DNS Report on your domain name & it returned a lot of warning info including this

      "Oops! Your local nameservers don't return IP addresses (glue) along with your NS records! This isn't a fatal error but means an extra lookup needs to be performed increasing the load time to your site. You can fix this by adding A records for each of the nameservers listed above."

      Not sure if that could be part of your problem?
