Looking for good loading speed > Wordpress Blog > Yslow Test

    I've been trying out different free themes, most popular ones to check the difference and see how things may help out.

    After trying many, the best I can get is a C grade from Firefox Yslow plugin. I'd like to make it an A, can you please help?

    The problems that stops it from being A is

    Make fewer HTTP requests (e)
    use a content delivery network (f)
    add expires headers (f)
    compress components with gzip (f)
    put javascript at bottom (c)

    Since this is wordpress, I need to know intelligent ways to handle this. Am sure finding appropriate way to do it will help thousands of other people too.

    Thanks.

    For the theme I like more, there are two more B's with that

    avoid css expressions (b)
    reduce dns lookups (b)
