Are you an owner of an eCommerce Magento shop and facing speed issues every now and then? There can be various reasons which can slow the speed of your website. However, here are some simple ways to make your website perform in a better way. Optimize your Magento website and improve website performance.
2. Online shopping has become an integral part of our lives. But, there are websites that
sometimes throw up tissues and do not function well causing a lot of anguish in the person
who is shopping. The websites get into low speed mode and this low speed has become the
main reason of people switching over to other websites that run fast.

3. WHY DOES THE MAGENTO SITE BECOME SLOW IN THE
FIRST PLACE?
The speed of the Magento website reduces further and further. Having
knowledge of this information will not suffice as one has to understand
why the website is showing poor performance. There are quite a number
of reasons for the same.
The web server may be a problem.
The logs and database may have overgrown
The default cache engine of Magento may be slow
There is an overload of extension
The size of images in the website to may affect the speed of the website.

5. CACHE CONFIGURATION
You may consider the default cache engine that comes in Magento. It
makes use of File System which gets support from all the servers. One
thing we need to understand here is that it is the slowest of cache
engines. You could probably tray other external caches like
Memcached, Varnish, and Redis, APC or the likes when there is a huge
database. This becomes extremely essential for businesses of large
magnitudes.

6. CLEAN UP DATABASE AND LOGS
When you scale up your business operations, there is ample scope that
your logs and database will keep growing larger and larger. There are logs
up to 180 days by default in Magento. And with the overgrown database
you definitely are going to tuck away a lot of things that are absolutely
unnecessary. So, all these things that have been piling up over a period of
time will affect the speed of your website drastically and slow it down too
quite significantly.

7. IMAGE OPTIMIZATION
When we look at the ecommerce stores, we will find that the site is completely fraught
with images. Having images of higher resolution will persuade the customers into buying
and will also create a beautiful visual impact when they are shopping. The image size
affects the loading time of the images. So, one can work towards making things appear
fast on the website by reducing the size of the images. But, there is a side effect to this
and it is that the appeal of the product that becomes low.
You may consider options which will not reduce the image quality and at the same time
better the loading time. There are extensions and modules that will facilitate the images
to get loaded faster when the customer scrolls on it or near it. This feature leaves the
priority with the customer and the space also can be used for content which the customer
would prefer to read.

8. DEFER PARSING OF JAVASCRIPT
JavaScript takes a long time to load when compared to the others in the
website. This stops the content from being displayed quickly. This in turn
will lead to the idea of loading the JavaScript codes in the last minute. The
developer has to rearrange the order of thing and leave JavaScript till the
end. Magento extensions can also do this for you. There are extensions
that can accelerate the loading time of the website which is considered to
be of ultimate importance for customer satisfaction and attraction.

9. INSTALL NECESSARY MODULES ONLY
You need to make an informed choice of the various extensions that are
available for the Magento stores. If you add modules that are unnecessary
and irrelevant to your store, you are adding more baggage to your site and
it will take more time to load. You cannot simply disable the module and
think you have taken off the load. The developer needs to change the code
in order to remove the module.
