Thus, we go into a deep analysis to overcome the factor regarding Page load speed. Besides here are few tips to be concentrated.

1. Profile your web pages
Profiling a web page usually involves a tool such as Firebug to determine what components (i.e. images, CSS files, HTML documents, and JavaScript files) are being requested by the user, how long the component takes to load, and how big it is.

2. Save images in the right format to reduce their file size

3. Minify your CSS and JavaScript documents

4. Combine CSS and JavaScript files to reduce HTTP requests
If you have three CSS files for a page, at least three separate HTTP GET requests is required for that particular web page. By combining these files, HTTP request overhead can be reduced to generate a web page.

5. Use server-side compression to reduce file sizes
Compressing page objects is similar to zipping up a large file that you send through email: You (web server) zip up a large family picture (the page component) and email it to your friend (the browser) – they in turn unpack your ZIP file to see the picture.

6.Avoid inline CSS and JavaScript
If you use a lot of CSS and JavaScript in your HTML document, you won’t be taking advantage of the web browser’s caching features.

7.Monitor website performance
For a website it’s responsible for getting/sending HTTP requests/responses to the right people and serves all of your web page components. If your web server isn’t performing well, you won’t get the maximum benefit of your optimization efforts.

It’s essential that you are constantly monitoring website for performance issues.
