Hi, if you have a WordPress website, try to see if there are any WP plugins that you no longer need. However, we would recommend checking with a website developer before you delete any, to see if they are needed or not. Sometimes WP plugins are added by web designers, during the web design process, yet might not now be used. WP plugins can sometimes slow a company website down.
-
You can analyze the website speed using these services: Pingdom, Google PageSpeed insights, WebPageTest. I would also advise optimizing images. It is better to publish photos in JPEG format, it allows you to compress images without losing quality.

PageSpeed insights is cool but I find GTMetrix often gives more useful info. If you sign up for a free account you get access to a cool waterfall tab
Here's the complete waterfall for your homepage:

In blue I highlighted some images which are over 50KB which could be compressed a little more. In red I highlighted all the calls which your site / page makes to YouTube.com. As Greg Painter specifically said, all of these calls to YT do seem to be slowing things down and causing you problems! Any chance you can embed those resources (which your page is calling for) natively on your site? It would be faster than keep calling out to YT which has to satisfy enormous amounts of traffic as it is

Pretty much what Greg said - there are so many things to look into including but not limited to the below..
- Enable Compress with GZip etc
- Serve scaled images and try SVGs.
- Reduce and minify scripts, HTML and CSS
- Possibly serve images from a content delivery network
- Load scripts asyncronously
- Avoid redirects where possible, reduce DNS look ups and http requests
- Set up caching correctly.
- Use a fast server and install SSL certificate. Intially it maybe slower but you can optimise bestter and in the end should produce faster speeds via HTTP2.0.
Plus lots, lots more.
Your CSS does look to be doing a fair bit of render blocking. Maybe look to combine and reduce to essential needed items.

Hey there,
Have you tried looking over what Google recommends?
https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.myqurantutor.com%2F
For example, it is saying there is a lot of loading from Youtube etc. Are you also sure the server is up to speed as well as optimized assets?
I'd also recommend digging through Moz some great stuff to try there too - https://moz.com/blog/website-page-speed
Hope some of that helps.

Can't Hyperlink After the WP 4.0 Update?
Anyone else who runs a WP site have problems hyperlinking after the 4.0 update? I read I could deactivate all my plugins, and go through them one-by-one, but before I go to that step, I want to know if there's either an easier way to regain this functionality or if there is a specific plugin that's known to cause the problem. Thanks, Ruben

Is Fall In Keyword Ranking After Launch of Revamped Website Normal
After launching my redesigned website (www.nyc-officespace-leader.com) Google ranking has dropped significantly for competitive keywords. The previous version of the site and the new version both have approximately 450 pages. My website developer was careful to implement 301 redirects. Monitoring Google Webmaster tools it shows that Google has picked up a quantity of duplicate content. More than 950 pages or shown in their index while my site only has 450 pages. There are also certain pages which require canonical which tags my developer is in the process of implementing. The relaunch was July 10. My developer is of the opinion that this fluctuation in ranking is normal and that it will take Google about one month to reindex the new site and remove the old pages from the directory. Is this accurate? Anyone have any ideas on why my site has tanked in Google's search results? Thank you very much. Sincerely,

I can’t understand, please help?
Our old <acronym title="Search Engine Optimization">SEO</acronym> built a lot of bad links (web 2.0, article ect) and in April of 2012 we received the dreaded Google Webmaster Tools notice of detected unnatural links to XXXXXXXX After 4 requests and disavowing all of the links he created we have finally received Reconsideration request for xxxx Manual spam action revoked The only problem is that this feels more of a penalty than when the received the detected links email? Everything across the board as dropped, I know we added more and more links to the disavow but everything has been going up with the quality we have been putting out until today when we received the manual action revoked. Has anyone experienced this, I feel like I wish we were still under the penalty as the rankings have dived.

Website Redesign - Will it hurt SERP?
Hi - I am planning to redesign my blog and I was wondering if this will affect my rankings? The new website template (custom designed) is much more user and seo friendly. The content, url structure, internal linking structure, meta tags, and site structure will remain exactly the same, but the visual design will be different (new sidebar widgets, and slightly different layout on inner pages). The current website is ranking very well (mostly top 5), has a healthy backlink profile, strong social media presence, and great traffic. I have heard that switching to a new template will dramatically hurt the rankings. Is this true? Are there any exceptions? Any ways I can prevent the rankings from dropping? Would really appreciate your input. Thanks in advance. Howard

Hom much does getting a mobile website improve the "mobile ranking"?
There's been speculation about Google totally not ranking sites that are not mobile, but as far as I can see many sites rank THE SAME on mobile devices as on regular stationary PCs/lap-tops. I had hoped for a radically improved ranking once a mobile site was built. Or is it just that it takes a TON of time for it to go through and then it gets better or is it like with regular sites that a new mobile site on a sub-domain is parked in some form of mobile-sand-box? Also, does putting a mobile site on a ranking domain, as subdomain help, e.g. m.testingsite.com instead of testingsite.mobi ? Thanks.

Removing important section of website, safely
Hi Mozzers, It's been requested that a top level page on a website I'm working on should be removed. It concerns me firstly because there are some nice links coming into that page. I'm also worried because website director has suggested the menu option for that page should simply be removed from all navigation, so you can't find the 'removed' page via his website, but it remains as an indexed page passing linkjuice to website. Is that a risky approach from an SEO perspective? What's the best approach to this? Thanks in advance! Luke

Could Website redesign be a cause of drop in rankings?
We had a complete redesign of our website and moved it over to wordpress several months ago. As url's changed, we had appropriate 301 redirects done. Rankings for our top keywords dropped, but others remained intact. Our SEO company told us rankings drop when a redesign is done, but I thought if we did all redirects properly (which they approved), it wouldn't be much of a problem. Additionally, we've been steadily adding good new content. Any advice?
