Hi,
we are migrating our website from Media Temple to Digital Ocean custom machine (x5 specs). We configure everything on the new machine to fit wordpress, theme structure and requirements. By the way the website in the new hosting enviroment run super slow (in the front end) and wordpress use onle 15% of server CPU and DB.
We try to fix by reinstalling the theme and all the plugin but nothing change. We cant understand what resource slowing the loading time of the page. If you check pingdom for a test, the result says that the website has 15/30 seconds of wait time. We can not figure out where the problem comes from but we’re sure it comes from the theme, as the site is a super fast with other themes.

Old – Media temple hosting
New – Digital Ocean Hosting

Thanks

Hi,

Please try and test without the ad implementation you currently have. Remove all ads/plugins and test again. It seems that it takes a considerable amount of time loading the ads.
Then try deactivating or reducing the number of images displayed in the footer Instagram.
There is a guide for improving page speed available, test the website with the Google page speed tool and follow the recommendations

It seems to specify that the server response time is not adequate

There are many page speed guides and discussions posted by the theme users, with great results
