i’m aiming to speed up my home page load time. the advanced banner has a few items that seem to cause my page to hesitate 2 seconds on load. i’ve tried w3 total cache to minify the js and css but it throws an error. are there any compatible items (or ways to manually fine tune the code) to increase my load time?
google tells me from http://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Flapolla.com
“Your page has 3 blocking CSS resources. This causes a delay in rendering your page. None of the above-the-fold content on your page could be rendered without waiting for the following resources to load. Try to defer or asynchronously load blocking resources, or inline the critical portions of those resources directly in the HTML”

Hi!
You can get a much better response time by upgrading to a better server. Running the test just now gives me:
In our test, your server responded in 1.4 seconds. There are many factors that can slow down your server response time. Please read our recommendations to learn how you can monitor and measure where your server is spending the most time.
This is listed as the only item that should be fixed. The script warnings are all scripts not from the theme and under prioritize visible content all items are shown as passing right now.
