Finally ready to go LIVE 😀

Before I do is there a way to speed up the loading of webpages? Sometimes they can load slowly and dont want to lose valuable customers? Any thoughts appreciated 🙂

Do NOT use bmp’s on the web.

Beware of using too many plugins.

Use a caching plugin.

Resize image files to be around 100kb each.

Use a minify plugin.

If you can modify the source code, you should use <link> over @import to include resource in you pages.
