I’m just wondering, are there any really basic things I can do that would optimise the page? I’ve already performed a pass to reduce the size of all the images, so they’re as good as they can be before I start to really compromise on quality - this seemed the prudent place to start.
Just wondering if there is anything else, perhaps something specific to Wix, that might be able to make this a bit more slick.
As I said in the original post, they are optimised. I just tried this:
According to that, the page is 5.3mb in size, of which ~2mb is purely script, leaving less than 3mb for images. Given that the page is quite image-rich (which is unavoidable), I think that’s the best I can do.
The largest image is ~250k, and there are 2 images that size (large ones which are necessary, as they show the book, which is the product, and need to be pin-sharp on mobile retina screens). The rest of the images tend to be under 100k, many of them much smaller - so it isn’t like there’s one monster 4mb image or something.
I understand, just making sure that they were indeed a proper size, which seems to be the case.
I suspect you could also improve loading time by cutting back on some of your animations like on the star ratings, but honestly I loaded the page just now much faster than before on a different browser without the cache and it loaded much more quickly than before which leads me to believe it’s something to do with server loads.
Thanks for the assistance; I removed all of the animations and the page is much more responsive on-load. They looked nice, but as this is a landing page responsiveness is better.
