Hi team,
I am the admin of this website http://www.sblanc.com and for a reason I still don’t know the home page is long to load and with my connection I will say sometimes very long to load, like more than 20/25 secondes.
Any idea why? Sliders?
Thank you.

Well first on my end it works a little bit faster. but your slider has images with aprox 500kb and some 900kb – allthough they have smaller dimensions (1200px x 800px)
see here if these are optimised for web f.e. with photoshop:

Do you realy see a difference ?

Thank you. Which size (dimensions) would you recommand for the images to be in the main slider? I don’t use Photoshop, so will find a solution to reduce their “weight” (kb).
A lot of people use the 100% jpg option which is not necessary.
On Photoshop i use 35 til 55% jpgs – depends on the motive. For contrast rich photos the 35% is often ok. for monochromatique or fine gradients ( like skin tones ) there must be a bit more.
I reduced the slider images to less than 100 kb each, still long…
Hi,
Your front page is very heavy, it’s more than 13mb. I would recommend that you try to limit the amount of images you are using. There are also almost 300 requests being made, I would advice you to try to limit that a bit also. Please see test results in private.
Best regards,
Rikard
Hi
Interesting : by changing all Enfold theme bloc with regular bloc I went from 13mb to 4.5mb. Endolf theme and functions too heavy so ?
Thank you
