I did a few speed tests and they said Yard Barker is loading slowly.
I am going to contact Yard Barker and see if I can get out of the signed contract.
Since adding Yard Barker my Google ads has dropped a lot. Hopefully that will speed the site up a bit.
Thats for your feedback. Improving loading time is something I am looking to do once I have some spare cash.
It's not "yard barker" and shopping around for tests is like having 4-5 scales in your bathroom and picking and choosing which one to believe when you weigh yourself.
WebPageTest is actual browsers, actual connections and it shows everything that loads and how long it takes. And how many KB each call, is. It is scientific and objective.
You have nearly 6 megabytes of content on that page and that IS the problem. Not "yard barker."
Optimize the site using the tools WebPageTest provides - you'll save tons of bandwidth and get a speedy site out of the deal. And you DON'T need cash to do it. Anyone telling you that is trying to rip you off. All it takes is a little bit of work on your part.
I could optimize your site in less than two hours because I have done it for so many. There's nothing magical or difficult about it, it just takes some work.
