Thank you OP for raising the question. I would never come to know if my site is running slow.
These tweaks were quite important to increase the speed of my website and I really appreciate your recommendation. The things are working great on my site and the loading speed has increased a bit as well.

Excellent post, and thank you all for the good information.
I just switched hosting providers and am interested in testing it for performance. My friend tells me he uses a benchmark file, but some quick searching for "php benchmark" and I am already in over my head. I understand various themes & plugins all contribute, but can someone point me in the right direction on how I can test my hosting performance. Appreciate your help.

Why don't you use the site as OP to check your site performance, there is no need for over complicating it.

I actually did use it to test my new hosting account from Powerup Hosting I setup tonight and was pretty happy with the results. I got the SSD shared account for $13.95 and it's remarkably fact.
Check them out in the Hosting section. Good company

I can suggest you to use wp total cache plugin + free cloudfare cdn services.
Use wp smush to reduce the size of image
Remove unecessary plugin and widget and try to use compress image to make website load faster.
always minfy css and javascript to increase the speed you can go for premium version also

Choose a good host
Start with a solid framework/theme
Use an effective caching plugin
Use a content delivery network (CDN)
Optimize images (automatically)
Optimize your homepage to load quickly
Optimize your WordPress database
Disable hotlinking and leeching of your content
Add an expires header to static resources
Adjust Gravatar images
Add LazyLoad to your images
Turn off pingbacks and trackbacks
Make sure that you don't miss any of them.

Theme problem
Did you try free themes???

Guys, its not a problem with a site optimisation. As I have investigates its not even the machines/host its being hosted. The DNS's are being slow as hell. Im getting PING response just under 200ms. Thats definitely way to much. Ask your current provider to take a look or try to reach the guys I have used (INTERNETUM). If you migrating to their server they can do it for you out of charge. Hopefully that will help you.
