How to Speedup My Site Loading?

Check it through GTMetrix and try to compress everything. If you need the help in doing so, share your FTP or cPanel login details, I will do it for free.

If you are using WordPress then, go with:
  • Cloudflare
  • Autoptimize Plugin
  • WP Rocket Plugin
  • Keycdn (if you want to go with paid one)
Don't forget to use fast hosting, I am using DigitalOcean now a days and seen the good results in Page Speed.

Hi, use Cloudflare for your DNS,
Install Smush plugin for optimizing images
Install autoptimize plugin

Wow. Below 1 second with so many http requests. From internal or external sources?

Internal, I went ahead and hosted google analytics and few other scripts myself with cron job that re-downloads those scripts every once in a while to keep them updated.
Its a wordpress (woocommerce) website with a ton of plugins and flatsome theme (heavy one).

I posted those screenshots because I'm tired of seeing post like that, "Don't use many plugins"
You can use a lot of plugins just as long as they don't conflict with each other and you do proper optimizations, for example...
If you are using CF7 for contact us page, there is no need to have its CS and JS files + recaptcha active on all of your pages, make it active only on contact us page.

But most important of all, stop using 1$ hosting for big wordpress websites, if you want speed pay up and get wpx/siteground or something similar, difference is huge.
I'm using WPX for all of my WP websites atm.
 
There is no thing faster than static page on Netlify!

My results from GTMetrix. It's not 100% on everything because I'm too lazy to resize few images.

You can follow tips from gtmetrix.

I can see you are already using autoptimize and w3cache, good first steps but I think you should consider better hosting.
Also you should host google analytics and fonts locally, I mentioned in my previous post I'm doing that, even though I'm using my custom coded solution for that you can go ahead and use these free plugins.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/host-analyticsjs-local/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/host-webfonts-local/

I can also see that you are using autoptimizes CDN service for images, I get better loading speed on images with wpx host (not affiliated with them) and their built in CDN solution.

PageSpeed Insights is crap, according to them my website takes 10 sec to load, has mobile score of 40/100 while every other website shows ~1 sec load speed with 80+ scores.

My client installed so many WooCommerce related plugins and I can optimize to better performance without any conflict. Because the most slowing down is external source such Google Tag Manager, Facebook Likebox, etc. Then I have to migrate them locally or switch to another source that load faster.

By the way, WPX hosting is high resource server, no need to worry about many plugins intalled there. But when installing many plugins on regular shared hosting, it's really suicide. That's why bloated plugins (such W3, Jetpack, Wordfence, etc) getting blacklisted by some regular shared hosting provider.

Second rule (or is it maybe the real first rule):
Rather use 15 lightweight and well coded specific functioned plugins, instead of 1 All-In-One plugin that is badly coded and bloated .. ;-)

Agree. It's all about how many resources and requests on those plugins too, not only about how many plugins itself.

Could you recommend all those plugins? Im using wp fastest but Im beginning to doubt how useful it is since my page loads 3.8seconds even with only 333kb pagesize
