Reduce CSS, JavaScript, and HTML

Another way to increase the page speed is by optimizing the code including removing the unnecessary characters. Also, you can remove the code comments, formatting, and unused code. CSSNano and Uglify JS are highly recommended by Google.


Resizing the Image and/or Optimize Your Images/CSS Sprite Tools

The size of the images also affects the load time of a website. Make sure that the images are not larger than they need to be and that they are in the right file format and compressed for the web. Your site is loading full-size images, and scaling them down to size or the images themselves are not optimized for the web.
