We have already prepared the website for its launch. We noticed that the website is loading a bit slow, could you give us some tips to improve the loading time? Either at the level of internal options of the theme itself or external plugins that you recommend. Thanks

Hello, Lantalau,

Thank you for contacting us and for using XStore.

We are glad to hear that your website is almost ready for launch. We understand the importance of having a fast-loading website.

Please follow this article – https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/troubleshooting/how-to-speed-up-my-website/

Additionally, to improve the loading time of your website, you can start by considering the following tips:

1. **Optimize Images**: Ensure that all images are optimized for the web. You can use tools like Adobe Photoshop or free online services such as TinyPNG to reduce image file sizes without losing quality.

2. **Minimize HTTP Requests**: Try to reduce the number of elements on your page to decrease the number of HTTP requests required to load the page.

3. **Enable Compression**: Use compression tools like Gzip to reduce the size of your CSS, HTML, and JavaScript files.

4. **Leverage Browser Caching**: Set up your server to enable browser caching. This allows visitors to store certain parts of your site on their local computer, which helps in loading the website faster upon subsequent visits.

5. **Minify CSS, JavaScript, and HTML**: You can improve load times by minifying your code. This involves removing unnecessary spaces, characters, and comments from your CSS, JavaScript, and HTML files.

6. **Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN)**: CDNs distribute your content across multiple, geographically diverse servers, which speeds up the loading of your site by serving data from the closest server to your visitor.

7. **Optimize Database**: Regularly optimizing your database can help improve your website’s performance. This can be done through plugins if you are using a CMS like WordPress.

Regarding theme-specific optimizations, please ensure that you are using the latest version of our theme as we continuously improve and optimize our products.

For plugin recommendations, you might consider using caching plugins such as W3 Total Cache or WPRocket. These plugins can significantly improve your site speed by caching your posts and pages as static files.

We hope these suggestions help you enhance your website’s loading speed.

Best Regards,
8Theme’s Team
