      Hi! This follows on from my last question.

      I'm trying to improve the page load speed for http://www.gear-zone.co.uk/.

      Currently, Google rate the page speed of the GZ site at 91/100 – with the javascript being the only place where points are being deducated. The only problem is, the JS relates to the trustpilot widget, and social links at the bottom of the page – neither of which work when they are deferred.

      Normally, we would add the defer attribute to the script tags, but by doing so it waits until the page is fully loaded before executing the scripts. As both the js I mentioned (reviews and buttons) use the document.Write command, adding this would write the code off the page and out of placement from where they should be.

      Anyone have any ideas?

        Ive run your site through the Page Speed tool here and you get 94/100 (which is awesome!).

        No idea on the JS sorry 🙂

        I'd be more than happy with 94/100!
