    Hi,

     

    I am not sure if this is the right forum for such things but can anyone guide me as to how i can reduce my page load time by reducing the HTTP requests, DNS lookup, fixing 'add expire header issues'.

    Can anyone help me with this?

    My URL is http://www.moremag.pk

    Associate Theme, slow performance 10+ seconds load time

    In my experience a full-page background image is what takes the most time to load. I have decreased the image size on my company's website and it appears to have helped with pageload by several seconds. Also, I find a Responsive coded site also increases load time, however I am not sure why that is.
