Why your website is slow (and it is probably not your host)

Why your website is slow (and it is probably not your host)

We hear "my host is slow" a lot. In 9 out of 10 audits, the real culprit is unoptimized images, render-blocking scripts, or a bloated page builder.

Where to actually look

Run a Lighthouse audit before blaming the server. Core Web Vitals will tell you exactly where the time is going.

Nine times out of ten, the report points at one of three things: images shipped at 4x the display size, a font-loading strategy that blocks paint, or third-party scripts (chat widgets, trackers) loaded synchronously in the <head>.
