I am a big advocate of having a balanced diet. We all know about how much balanced diet is essential for us. We all know that there are some basic constituents of a balanced diet. A balanced diet keeps you healthy. To remain healthy, you need to take balanced diet with adequate intervals in between. The ingredients of a balanced diet include: carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, fats, minerals, water. Why I am so much concerned about balanced diet? Why I am just talking about it at length?
The reason behind emphasizing the concept of balanced diet is that I believe prevention is better than cure. A fat person always remains at risk from all sides, physical or emotional. The perception about being fat is never considered as “healthy”.
Now, imagine if a website is “fat”. Surely, the first thing that would be affected will be its speed. The issue of fat and slow website continues to hamper the performance of the organizations, and the problem continues to haunt the big businesses. A fat website is not healthy. A fat website is lazy. A fat and slow website is not good at all. Nobody likes a fat and slow website. A FAT AND SLOW WEBSITE IS A BAD WEBSITE!
In this blog, I will provide a detailed account of the reasons behind a website’s slow performance. I will also discuss the factors that contribute towards website’s “fatness” and “slowness”. In the end, I will provide recommendations to address this pertaining issue that continues to pose a serious threat to the performance of a website.
Factors influencing a website’s (slow) performance
There are many different factors that influence the performance of a particular website. In this section, I will highlight these factors one by one under separate headings, along with the so-called “exercise regime” – the measures web developers need to take in order to ensure their websites’ performance remains unperturbed. To start, analyze your website’s performance via Page Speed Insights by Google Developers. This tool provides us with the best practices for website performance.
