I have used varios plugins but at the moment I am feeling confident with LiteSpeed. After various tunings that fall beyond the scope of this message, I have managed to achieve some decent speed, however, I believe that it can get better.<\/p>\n<p>I am using GMetrix to assess the speed and here is where my problem lies. In the Waterfall section of GMetrix, I can see all process and the order at which they are executed. There is also a warning in YSLOW to avoid redirect links.<\/p>\n<p>What I see in the waterfall section: https:\/\/gtmetrix.com\/reports\/www.ofdreamsandknowledge.gr\/hR7faTnt<br \/>\nis that the page is initially loaded @ ofdreamsandknowledge.gr and subsequently it loads @ ofdreamsandknowledge.gr\/en. I think this is not right and I would appreciate anyone&#8217;s insight on how to correct this problem.<\/p>\n<p>Later on in the same list, we see another redirect: https:\/\/www.ofdreamsandknowledge.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/logo-watermark.png?id=6521<br \/>\nonce more I am not sure how to get rid of this as well. On the 4th row before the end of the waterfall list, it seems to reload the original page ofdreamsandknowledge.gr\/<\/p>\n<p>I am not a GMetrix maniac or trying to achieve 100% in every sector, however I feel that in this instance the GMetrix tool is correct. Please correct me.<\/p>\n<p>I would appreciate anyone&#8217;s advice.<br \/>\nThank you very much<br \/>\nKind Regards,<br \/>\nKonstantinos<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-12477158","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/12477158","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/12477158\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12477158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
