@
everlastingrox, I just checked the results here:
https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Feverlastingdecking.com
and what I see here:
1) Enable gzip or mod_deflate. This is a great suggestion and you should do this on your server.
2) Remove JS files from top of the page that blocks the display of the page.
These JS files are not default, so you should contact the developer of your skin in order rectify this problem.
3) Optimize CSS files. Most of the files in the subject are on 3rd party server (
http://fonts.googleapis.com) and references to these files do not exist in default X-Cart. Again, contact the developer of your skin and ask them to optimize the code.
and so on.
I do agree that there are things that X-Cart could do better, primarily optimize CSS and JS code. We do have plans of adding JS/CSS minifiers that will solve the problem. But most of the problems in that report are caused by the custom code that does not exist in default X-Cart.
Please, let me know if my comments help.
