Hello,
I installed this plugin few days back and i'm seeing very good improvement.
This is definitely a must have plugin for all Wordpress blog.
Here are some doubts/issues i have.
1. Initial lag.
When i clear my browser cache and open my website, it takes 2 sec to give title of my page.
below it says "sending request" for those 2 sec.
Is this because of hosting server?
2. Al thought there is significant improvement in web page load time, my dashboard is really very slow, it takes 5 sec for any action.
Why is this? How can i overcome this?
3. Speedtest
I have tested speed using tools.pingdom.com and webpagetest.org.
pingdom says page loads in 1.5 secs
webpagetest.org says first time 8 secs and 2nd time 2.5 secs.
Which one should i trust?
4. Cloudflare
I have started using Cloudflare service.
I couidn't figure out how much improvement it has?
In general what percent does it help?
5. Hosting
from wordpress users here, i would like to know which hosting is best for wordpress,
also my traffic is only from India.
6. CDN
I would like to know how much improvement does CDN provied.
My website has 15 to 20 small sized images (300X400) say.
7.Recommendation
Lastly, i would like a advise. My website is updated very frequently, min 50 posts a day.
What setting in W3TC will optimize it the best?
-Regards
Preetham
