How to speed up website load time?

[johncampbell]

Hello,

I have doing some of the following work to speed my ecommerce site.

Minify and combine files
Reduce image sizes
Choose a good hosting provider
I have already installed the caching plugin
I have disabled Inactive Plugins
Minify JavaScript and CSS Files

After doing these things no change or improvement in site load time, I don't know whether I change my hosting provider or still I have to do some changes in my website to speed up. I have discussed this in different forums and they suggested me to change the hosting provider.

Anyone can suggesting me about these hosting provider or anyone experience their services? Because changing the hosting provider is very difficult for me.

Thanks,

An e-commerce site is usually heavier on the server than a blog such as Wordpress. If you have performed all the necessary speed optimizations and your site is still slow, then the problem may be with your host. My suggestion would be a VPS such as Digital Ocean or Vultr. You can try a managed VPS host such as Cloudways which allows you to deploy a VPS without knowing server administration.
