This looks like a nice indicator. The suggestions are useful. For me its showing to enable Gzip compression for most of the links.
You can use Super cache wordpress plugin to enable gzip compression
Excellent find, thanks for the share. After checking one of my sites, I discovered a couple of issues, will work on them tonight.
Thanks again.
checked this yesterday.. It is cool and unique must have feature for every webmaster..
I have read about this performance feature on numerous sites, so I went and checked what my blog says.
My performance is just over 10 seconds which is not good in my eyes. I need that to be between 5 and 8 seconds. I guess I will have to see what I can optimize to descrease my loading time.
I need to retweak my site too as it is still slow. However, I used both WP super cache and smush.it
Thanks for the sharing, but how long is the ideal loading time? it says that my performance is 3.6 seconds, is it good enough ?
Depends on how big your site is. Try and keep it no larger than 200kb, I would say that 4 seconds should be the longest you should expect a user to wait for your entire page to load.
Hope that helps.
