site loading slow?

    We're hearing reports from visitors that this site is loading slow but havent been able to replicate it, despite viewing on every browser and multiple different computers.

    Do you notice any significant lag in load time? Please advise. Thanks.

    The main factors which are responsible for the slow loading of the site are as following on which you should have to keep attention and by doing changes in the web pages, you will able to get faster loading site :

    Do proper image optimization with the keeping in size and name factors in the mind
    Compress the code of HTML, CSS, and Javascript by reducing white spaces in it
    Minimize the HTTP request by displaying only necessary files of the website

    I think it is a hosting issue. I can see when i try to open your site that there is a delay between pressing go and getting the confirmation that the site is there. After this step the site loads fast so i dont think it has anything to do with you actual site.

    Why would that indicate a hosting issue? Are you saying that it takes time to recognize the existence of the site and large pictures would only slow the load time once the browser recognizes the site?

    Also, if it were a hosting issue, why would the site appear quickly for myself and others, but appear very slow for a different set of individuals that have viewed it?

    And if you dont mind, what browser are you using and what version?

    Thanks!

    Im using latest versions on FF Chrome Opera and IE8. My point is the images and other stuff on your site start loading only after the browser has received the confirmation that the site is on that address that is where there was a delay in loading for me when i checked your site after that the images and all site elements loaded quickly. It may not be the hosting issue it is probably a normal delay or the server is a bit busy so it takes it some time to respond. Why you see the page fast and others slow is due to cache. You browser has cached the site and "knows" that the site is there so it doesent wait also it has cached all the elements on the site so it loads it fast but someone who has never visited it will have to wait until it all loads but just that first time after that they will see it fast as you do this is all normal.

    Hi!
    You need to check :
    + How about query connect to database of 1 user for 1th load
    + Do you use MVC
    + Do you use cache
    + Do you resize images?
    + Check speed of host
    + Checking your site was be DDOS?
