Pagespeed text Google

Hi guys!

When i run a test on Google pagespeed insights my website gets a 80% score for desktop but for mobile its 20%..

Mostly its some sources that are blocking some functions. The results you can see here: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=boccale.nl&tab=mobile

But i was wondering if you guys are working on the mobile version of the site to speed it up. Because i saw a couple examples site of you guys that have the same problem. So i assume its a theme problem.

Thank you

Hi,

Please, read pagespeed report carefully and try to apply every recommendation to your website to improve the performance. We don’t see any theme-related problems there. You can install a previous version and you will see that it is not changing on updates.

In general, our theme is already optimized and don’t have too many resources to make your website slow. Most likely, your website performance suffers from the content you have added to your website. It may happen in case of too many plugins, large not optimized images or other resources. So we suggest you to remove unnecessary plugins, install some kind of JS & CSS optimizing plugins like Better WordPress Minify and a caching plugin like WP Super Cache. Also, you can use GTmetrix tool to see what makes your website slow and optimize these parts of your website.

Kind Regards

Thanks for the quick response! your completly right that you optimized your theme. But i have the feeling its just desktop.
if i run your demo website: https://woodmart.xtemos.com/ in google speed test it also gives a score of 22 for mobile. So i dont think its the content i added or plugins on my website. I have been doing everything you guys do in on the demosite.

I was just suggesting you guys could maybe have a look! always try to get better, right 🙂

Believe or not, we spend approximately a half of our developing time to optimize our theme. But yes, our demo has not a high score for mobile devices in google. But in fact, it is not possible to make it higher with that amount of content we have. But just check it from the user’s side. It is extremely fast and user-friendly both on mobile and desktop devices. Check also GTmetrix report that is a very popular performance checking tool https://gyazo.com/04679372d62b4e8b5969e0db279be9b0
Anyway, thank you for noticing that. We will do our best to “increase that number” on our demo too. But anyway, it will not be something that we will do with our theme. Maybe just some kind of images removing or lazy loading option turning on.

Love to hear that you guys work so hard on the optimizing! Keep up the hustle! 🙂

Thanks again! i will keep checking what i can fix on my site.

Love the theme!

Thank you for your kind words. If you will get a better result, we would appreciate if you share your experience with us! Thank you in advance.

Just did the check on gtmetrix. I get an oke score. Not the perfect score like you. But i was wondering. For “Defer parsing of JavaScript” i get a F. But is this something i can fix? Or how do you guys fixed this? With a plugin or something else.

Personally, we prefer to use WP Rocket plugin to fix this problem. In general, it resolves 80% of problems with website performance optimization but it is paid. You can try to use free analogs like WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache but they are not so powerfull.

Hello koenzwaan,

I have worked a lot on the speed settings of this theme with my website.

At the start i was using WP Fastest Cache in combination with some others plugins & a bit of code, i found in an article from “jodyshop” in this forum. You can find the 2 articles here :

FREE SOLUTION :
https://xtemos.com/forums/topic/how-i-get-94100-at-gtmetrix-page-speed-score-the-plugins-code-snippets-used/

UPDATED but PAID VERSION:
https://xtemos.com/forums/topic/update-how-my-gtmetrics-improved-pagespeed-score-a-98-yslow-score-82/

afterwards i bought WP-Rocket. The performance is almost the same but it’s much easier to setup the WP-Rocket.

WP Rocket provides all the options with a few clicks.

The solution “jodyshop” provided is EXCELLENT, but requires some code lines inside the child’s function.php and propably some edit on the .htaccess for expires headers etc etc and i don’t know if you are familiar with it.

The theme is really well optimized. As you can see my website has rev.slider, a lot of images in the home page, html5 video and i get really good results : http://prntscr.com/lldvty

Try to improve all the recommendations from GTMETRIX or PINGDOM, especially those about image sizes, optimized images (replace images with the optimized version GTMETRIX provides), enable GZIP **MUST** and things you can do without coding or file minification.

Furthermore, if you can, use CDN! At the moment i’m investigating on how to set it up and which is the best solution as i’ts the only recommendation that i have from GTMetrix.

Note that Woodmarts full load time provided by GTmetrix is ~4.5-6 seconds (https://prnt.sc/lldwyt http://prntscr.com/lle013), let’s say an average of 5 seconds, but it’s loading extremely fast (around 1.5-2 seconds) because they use CDN. http://prntscr.com/lle013

My website sometimes is faster, others is slower, i don’t use CDN so its not stabel due to the traffic or the network of the server it’s hosted on. Its hosted in a local company but i do have an average of 3 seconds full load time.

Finally, as your store grows you can search for a good managed wordpress/woocommerce cloud hosting plan. These plans have caching layers on the servers and they are built for wordpress/woocommerce, but they cost more.

Hope my reply will help you get the load times you want!

Hello @m0seR,

Thank you very much for sharing your experience!

Wow M0ser, thank you for your help!

I will probably go for WP rocket, because it sound for me the way to go now. Im just scared that is screws up some code and it makes the theme crash (experience with other themes)

Thanks again!

I just wanted to let you know that i have a great score on the google speed test. a 93 score on Google and a load time of 980ms on pingdom tools!

I added wp rocket, i didnt change anything yet to the settings. But i think i can improve it even more!

Hi,

We are glad to hear that. Keep us informed about your performance progress 🙂 It is also useful for other customers reading this topic.
