Long loading times

What causes long loading times

There are many reasons why your webpage may load slowly:

  • Poor internet connection speeds

  • Overloading the page with too much content

  • Large files

We recommend that you run a speed test to check your internet connection speed. If the connection speed is not the issue, try reducing the size of any large files on the page or removing some of the content.
