Usually bandwidth will not affect the site speed.
bandwidth is the amount of data that can be carried from one point to another in a given time period
RAM Memory on other hand can slow down the performance and that’s if you have too much things going on.
If is all right by you, can you please provide us with your URL?
Thanks,
Emil
Yes, http://kailaniskorner.com/
Going to bring the posts per page down. But should all of those data files be transferring like that? (Viewing from FF) Even slower in IE
This is really simple to fix, however prior to that I just want to check that this is self-hosted WordPress correct?
All right. To start with is there a reason why your images are hosted here: http://kandrade76.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/dsc_0777.jpg the files are still at WordPress.com. Unless this is how the import was setup, or if you have hosting at WordPress.
Now that wouldn’t be the biggest issue if the actual size of your images are smaller.
For an example: the above photo 3872 x 2592 that will slow down any server out there, regardless of how good the server specs are. My suggestion is to reduce the size of all images to at least 600 x 400.
Images are much larger than what they appear to be.
Hope that this helps,
Emil
Thanks Emil. I did check the sizes of a few photos and of course the ones I checked were much smaller. LOL
Yes, the new site is self hosted. I’ll check the media manager on the.org site. Just confirming, there isn’t a way to access an images folder from the .com site and just FTP them over, correct?
Thanks again for all of your help.
