My site – https://jazzjournal.co.uk/ – is slow to load or won’t load and edit post pages aren’t loading at all or only in a scramble. Is this a Newspaper problem?

Hello!

As you can see here on the waterfall the issue on your website is because of the images that are not optimized: https://gtmetrix.com/reports/jazzjournal.co.uk/zwdffVzJ/

Thank you!

I don’t know what a waterfall image is, and I have never seen this problem before and have changed nothing.

But anyway, the image I sent you was of an edit-post page with no images, not a site page.

And now the edit-post pages are loading ok. Any idea what happened yesterday?

How do I optimise images? I always use 1200px jpg as recommended.

Thanks
Mark

Does the image problem explain the poor, 50% performance rating? That site looks useful if only I knew how to remedy the problem.

Hello!

Yes, you need to optimize images in order to improve your page speed https://www.screencast.com/t/cWXH1NpZXbM3

Can you give me a tip how to optimize my images and to identify which ones need optimizing? Looking at that page and your arrows, are they the jpg or other photo-type files in the list? I just upload 1200px jpegs as recommended.

Thanks.

Hello!

I recommend you this guide in order to see what are the options in optimizing your images: https://kinsta.com/blog/optimize-images-for-web/ as for the what images, you can see that in GTMetrix here: https://www.screencast.com/t/wVLN6VP47EA on the waterfall tab you will see all the images that need to be taken a look at.

I hope this was helpful!
Thank you!
