        3.52s thats  quick

        If you're using cPanel for your web hosting go to optimise website and tick the middle option this will Compress All Content.  That will give you a slight increase on the score on Google site speed.

        If they're saying images need caching put the following into your htaccess you should get up into the 90's.

        EXPIRES CACHING

        <ifmodule mod_expires.c="">ExpiresActive On
        ExpiresByType image/jpg "access 1 year"
        ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access 1 year"
        ExpiresByType image/gif "access 1 year"
        ExpiresByType image/png "access 1 year"
        ExpiresByType text/css "access 1 month"
        ExpiresByType text/html "access 1 month"
        ExpiresByType application/pdf "access 1 month"
        ExpiresByType text/x-javascript "access 1 month"
        ExpiresByType application/x-shockwave-flash "access 1 month"
        ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access 1 year"
        ExpiresDefault "access 1 month"</ifmodule>

        EXPIRES CACHING

          Some will say it's slow because they have suggestions to further improve your load speed. They have their own calculations on which is more important.

          So in a sense, all of them are right, depending on what they consider to be important. Your site looks pretty solid though so try to use their suggestions further and bump it up further.

            Seems like these results are consistent with each other, 3.66s and 3.52s are very close, if you repeat the test few time and all results are around those times you should consider around 3.5s as the realistic loading time for your users.

            Have you checked your analytics account for the site speed section?

            My favourite tool (developed and supported by Google) is webpagetest.

            If you check your website with it you will notice few area of improvement, in particular the TTFB (Time To First Byte).

            The two metric you should care about are TTFB and the total page loading time.

            • TTFB is a factor in google algo ranking of your pages.
            • The total loading time is affecting your UX, and potentially damaging your bounce rate.

            In the webpagetest your site is getting an F for TTFB, which seems to be between 3 and 7 seconds. Which is really bad and potentially hurting your SERP ranking.

            • If the order of products on a page changes each time the page is loaded, does this have a negative effect on the SEO of those pages?
