Hi @gustavo-espadas ,
Iā€™m not familiar with the site structure of other site buildersā€¦
Iā€™ve given lots of articles above of how to check what causing the slow speed time. Running a speed test to check which elements causing the slow speed time can be a good start to minimize the loading time.

Note that this forum is specialised in the Wix Code product . Therefore, if you still have issues with the loading time of your site, I recommend contacting Wix Support team so that they can check on their end what causing the issue.

Thanks,
Tal.

I absolute Love:
*The ease of use
*The beauty

  • The RANKING! SEO IS FABULOUS!
  • PRICE!! OMG Thank you! Starting up - this is important!
    However all of this does not matter if your site takes 15 seconds to load, nor will google put you in the top 10.
    I also use Shoxxxy. Ease of use HORRIBLE!, EXPENSIVE, everything is EXTRA, almost as good looking as Wix (if you figure it out), However it loads in 1.7 seconds! This is the most important of any website if I had to choose one, speed is it!

What does Shopxxy have that Wix does not? AKAMAI It is hands down the best CDN on the globe - with a high price of course. $2200 a month is just not doable. However for Wix - a drop in the bucket for the unlimited at 4500 a month. This would give us all a boost and WIX would take the market hands down.
Come on WIX, I need to add my forum!! PLEAAASE! If I add a blog, chat box, forum, it is so slow I cannot even work on it. Please please please please! You got this WIX! Lets open a can of WHOOPASS! PSSTTT!

@tal Excuse me for the language, but are you kidding me? For sure I can submit the sitemap, but only the useless sitemap WIX has createdā€¦
However. I already phoned with the wix support team etc. to be more than sure you are not able to edit such, thanks though for trying to lead me to them once again. I do not care for this anymore as I know that this wonā€™t be resolved in ages.

I only care about the awful long loadtime of my webpage.

I had same issues with my site loading time on desktop it was great but wix Mobile let it down - most visitors will not wait more than 2.0 sec for a page to fully load before they just move on to another url, stats suggest you lose upto 70% of clicks when visitors are left waiting for pages to load, i tried everything to improve my load time on wix mobile - i got so frustrated in the end i took the plunge and went over to wordpress.

If only wix mobile performed better i would have stayed with them, Wordpress was the right move for me, i lost my seo i had built up but the switch paid dividends, my site now fully loads between 0.5 & 0.7sec on Mobile and tablet using a couple of pluginā€™s to leverage browser caching, minify HTML css and java requests and optimizing images has made massive difference to load times.

I like wix for itā€™s ease of drag n drop page design if they ever sort their mobile side out i would not hesitate to return - with google now making mobile page speed a top criteria towards google rankings. Wix needs to up itā€™s a game or lose valuable customers.

Wix websites load within 3 secs, if you have a problem with your website taking along time to load then check your whole the speed on your overall site and check to see if you any elements on your website that you have added, that are taking a long time to load up initially and thus is affecting your websiteā€™s load up time.

Worked all day on this and I have the same issue with a very slow database. Not happy, stressed out for nothing.

33

I am absolutely my mobile site. My statistics say that many users are accessing via mobile device. With this speed it is absolutely annoying. Who waits 10 or more seconds until a page opens?

Please get that fixed. Otherwise i will have to quit wix. it is just bad for my business

34

i ment: i am aboslutely annoyed by my mobile site

35

Generally speaking, WIX sites speed sucks!
Thank God I use a website by other platform. It turns that WIX sites are just for fun, test and nothing serious.

Dear wix owners, managers
This subject is very important. Weā€™re losing customers.
Please ask for quick support and assistance.

especially mobile site!!!

Hey Tal my sites is www.finroboloans.com which interaction time 5.2 sec of homepage itself. I check the your above comment for site loading article and also checked speed tests a found that java-script is slowing down but on home page there is not that use of the java-script. Thanks

Iā€™ m afraid the specialized to wix code forum, is not so specialized since there are a lot of problems/questions with no answer a t a l l.
Also, we all know the slow site load issues as this is a common problem.

I am seeing serious slowness on the Order online page for my site. Itā€™s highly unlikely that customers will tolerate the slowness. How is anyone running their real online ordering business on Wix?. I wish Wix spent more time on fixing performance issues rather than SEO and marketing. Opened a support ticket but not optimistic about a resolution from Wix. Should have done more research and stayed away. After some own analysis, I am wondering why does the Online ordering widget load all elements (including images) by default? Why canā€™t it collapse the elements and load just the nodes (appetizers, soups, entrees, desserts, etc.) and allow the customer to expand the nodes one at a time to load the elements under each node? Wouldnā€™t that at least render the initial page faster and keep the customer engaged? I guess it needs tinkering with the code when it could have been a simple widget property setting. SMH.
