Site Speed Improvement Issues

Hi Together,

I’m about to improve the site speed of my own website. My site is a simple portfolio with only one site with a couple elements ( small images and text ), little bit of code and a second dynamic page with my projects on. After finishing, it felds really slow when loading so I began to improve all elements, code and media on my site to get better results ( This was a helpfull guide: https://www.editorx.com/shaping-design/amp/website-optimization-editorx ) .

But now, I’m on a point where I have everything done as good as possible.

A site speed check tells me my site is still very slow.

for example:

On Desktop, it is not the slowest but not fast enough. There are a couple of problems like a very big DOM size, a really slow server response time and some unused Java script.

I checked all of this and I havn’t any unused animations. I don’t know how to manage the DOM size and the server response… I don’t know.

But on Mobile it is very Bad:

Third party Code is blocking, 3G is terrible and there is something wrong with the main thread.

So, is is there everything I can do to get better results?

I think Editor X or Wix have slow servers what is very bad. I checkt a blank site with only one element with the speed test and the results are even bad.

Do someone else have issues with editor x and the loading speed? Let me know if so and if you get good results after improving!

Thanks for every reply!

from our side we’ve forwarded your query to the relevant team in Wix, you can share the updates from their side, if you would like to

Hi Andrew,

thank you. Will the Wix team contact me or is there anything else I can do?

I will share all updates here.

Thanks for reaching out.

The site on my end loads really well.

As for the unused JavaScript, it depends on what the code its displaying but some of it may be critical to the site structure .

I will say usually for these tests, they check the sites with suboptimal conditions so it might not be a real-world representation of the site loading time.

Hi Roberto,

thanks for your replay.
I got an answer from the Wix team and it looks like the speed checks simulate the user data if there isn’t enough data currently. That’s maybe a reason for the bad resalts.

I will check in the future when there is more trefic on my site.

thabk you.
