The Box Is Slow, Fix It?
Hello! This is Tololy from, you know, Tololy’s Box. I’ve been receiving complaints lately from you dear readers that this blog is heavy and slow. You don’t like that, I don’t like that. The glitch here is that I lack the technomagic to fix it.
Upon the advice of a buddy, I removed that banner from the sidebar (nobody signed up for SiteGround through here, therefore I did not get the bonus 3 months of free hosting, thank you very much) and I reduced the number of posts that appear on the main page. That cut down on the loading time of the Box, but not enough.
So…
Dear Gods of technomagic and everything wonderful and IT-like, do you have any suggestions on how to make this place load faster? Help, advice, suggestions, and volunteer work are all welcome. If you have a good idea or want to flex your cyborg muscles, then you’re my man/woman!
P.S: Will reward with cookies.

The site has seemed okay to me. I haven’t noticed any slow-down.

It’s always run fine for me too, Tololy. Except for the fact I can’t put in an web link without being flagged as a spammer :)
