Site loading very slow

[sneakers]

My site (http://sneakerbasement.com/) loads very slow. I am a relative beginner at php but am wondering if there is an easy fix or some good reading materials on how to optimize the site for better speed.

 

Thanks

Thread on the topic: A Store Speed Optimization in Progress, Step by step from a vanilla install!

 

Output Queries Debug Contribution to see how many queries a page generates and how long it takes to execute them (find excessive amount of queries or slow ones).

depends on the server load as well, as some webhosts hold up to 10000 website per server and this cause the server overload.

Hi,

 

I'm thinking of optimising my site to improve load speed. and have tried following the post of Chemo's that Jan referrs to.

 

However, Im finding it quite confusing, as some of the "fixes" in the early posts are dismissed as having problems in the later posts.

 

My question is: is there a posting anywhere that identifies the best way to optimise a store in easy (for the likes of me) steps?

 

eg:

Remove banner code by doing this: xxxxxx

Remove other languages by doing this: yyyyyyy

Improve product queries by doing this: zzzzzzzz

 

Many Thanks
