More PageSpeed Insights – The Mystery
PageSpeed: This poem is a testament to the pros and cons of a drop and drag website that appears so easy but includes unseen diverse integrations which interfere with the normal workings of a minimalist website that you cannot remove or reduce despite all of your best efforts so, you are left with only one option – MOVE.
PageSpeed Insights Diagnosis
I’ve deleted all the images
From ColourMine you see
Because PageSpeed Insights said
There’s a huge loading problem
So thought it must be me
I thought I’d popped
Too larger photo’s on
But that cannot be
With each one being
200x267 pixels
That’s not that big
I don’t think
And 96 DNS is definitely
Reduction or Removal
Small when you consider
How big they begin
With loading everything
Being so bad
And PageSpeed Insights
Looking so sad
With mobile loading
At the mid to low zone
That will say
Everything’s too slow
So, people won’t stay
The desktop is not much better
I see occasionally in the high end
But more middle ground it’s been
So, I thought I’d strip out
Lots to improve the speed
Stripped Out but No Change
Well, that didn’t work
Even though there’s only
Seven images to see
And that’s right across the site,
Oh, woe is me
With everything gone
Except plain text and bold
The loading should fly
Without a hold
But there’s the rub
It doesn’t you see
It’s still very slow
Now, that’s quite a blow
Actually, there’s no change at all
On the mobile
And it’s uploading capacity
But with everything I’ve done
Everything Possible Done
It definitely isn’t me
So, I’ve come to the conclusion
That within Squarespace
There is lots I cannot see
That is holding ColourMine back
And because of this
It’s reducing
The ColourMine visibility
So, there appears to be
Only one thing that
I think I should do
And that is to leave
PageSpeed and Moving On
To find other pastures new
That said it looks like
WordPress may be the place for me
It’s sort of familiar
It’s ground that I’ve already covered
Within the last 10 years you see
So, decision made
I’m away, because that’s definitely
The place for me
So, I can enjoy
Doing everything and being me
With ColourMine being seen
New Destination and Tea
Now final decision made
Where’s my cup of
Decaffeinated tea
I think I need a sip
Prior to my next
Enjoyable scene
With positivity
And everything is green
For me, that means
Go, and now I’m replete
I shall proudly take
My ColourMine on WordPress
High priestess seat
