Wordpress Blog Loads too slow

So my wordpress blog is loading too slow. I have been putting pretty big pictures on it and lots of them...but it takes forever for it to load up... On other blogs with the same picture size and quantity, they load a lot faster.

Is there a way so that when it loads you don't have to wait for the entire site to load before you can start viewing it?

Or am i doing something wrong??? Should i get better hosting? I know i am getting like 500 to 900 veiws a day... so is my bandwidth slowing it down? What must i do to have a faster site? Any ideas?

much advanced thanks.

 

It can be a problem of your hosting or can be a simple issue. I would recommnd wp-cache plugin to ease weight on your database.

 

yea wp-cache plugin is what I use to ease my database probably u shld try it too

also try and put less pictures (or reduce the quality of those pictures) so that the pics aren't large

 

sweet thanks guys.

 

Here is an article on speeding up wordpress blog with several tipps on this.

 

It might also be that your site have too much widgets etc, those will slow down your loading time too

 

Use less images or may be use wp-cache as well.

 

wp-cache plugin can really speed up loading, use lighter images and less javascript

 

all of the above - and just compress your images a bit more - maybe shrink them then link them to the full sizes - or install a script that caches thumbnails
