Step 1: Set yourself an ambitious target and fixate on it until you get it

This is an absolute must. If you don't have a target, then you're unlikley to keep pushing. You must your set yourself an ambitious target and strive to achieve it BEFORE you start optimizing. For us, our target was to reduce the load time of the frontpage to less than 1.5 seconds AND get at least 85% on both Pagespeed and YSlow.

Our end result is a load time of 1.29s, total page size of 149KB and total number of requests being 28. Not too bad

On to the nitty gritty...

Every user on the internet wants to get the desired information as fast as possible. As per a recent study if a web page takes longer than 4 seconds to load, 75% of visitors may not visit that site again because of its low load time. If your website's load time is more than 3 seconds, the probability of bounce rate will be higher. Now you need to pull up your socks and optimize your website's load time . But how can you improve your website's load time, here are a few suggestions:
Reduce number of CSS files
To improve your website's speed, you need to reduce total number of HTTP requests. €Minify€is a PHP5 app that combines multiple CSS and JavaScript files together and takes out whitespace and comments and serves them as a single file. Minify compresses all files and reduces overall file size and make them one single file.
Key takeaway is: Remove everything that is useless. You can download free plugins like Minify to compress all your files to improve your website's load time.
Make images as small as possible
For most of the websites images are a big concern. These high resolutions, big size images affect website's load time. But you don't have remove images to improve your website's load time. There are some other ways in which you can reduce image size. Photoshop has an option €Save For Web€ where it automatically reduces image size. You can save high resolution images like photographs in JPG format. There are lots of file size reducing software that you can use to cut down the image size, without scattering its pixels.
Key takeaway is: High resolution images take relatively long time to load, reduce image size in Photoshop or any other third party plugins to improve your website's speed.

After I initially commented I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now every time a comment is added I receive 4 emails with the exact same comment. There has to be an easy method you are able to remove me from that service? Kudos!
