you’re a star!! Thankyou SO much..

It was one of my plugins called WP Minify which uses the Minify engine to combine and compress JS and CSS files to improve page load time.

It would have been nice WP Minify – do you know any other solution to combine & compress JS and CSS files to improve page load time.
thanks again

I was told by my hosting company the following:

There’s a number of things causing the site to be slow. As far as I can see the biggest delay is the structure of the website, You have 25 JavaScript files served from http://www.carwaxwashpolish.com. They should be combined into as few files as possible. As you have a few plugins they site has accumulated lots of files in separate locations rather than being streamlined into 2 or 3 javascript files.

Another problem is that your website has repeated images and scripts throughout and rather than downloading the files once and using them multiple times, the site downloads a copy each time they are used. You have 53 such instances of this on the front page alone.

There are quite a few other problems but they are the worst offenders.

We could upgrade your account and it would be faster but you would still have problems.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

I AM NO EXPERT – ARE THESE PROBLEMS EASY TO FIX IF I PAY SOMEONE OR IS IT VERY EXPENSIVE?

Thankyou

Elaine
