  For some reason I can’t see anything on my blog when I pull it up. Not sure why. I tried clearing the cache – using google chrome

  Hi there!

  Can you let me know what site you’re having trouble with? Once I have that information, I’ll be happy to take a look.

  Thanks!

  Thanks for that information!

  I visited that site today and it seems to be loading for me just fine. Are you still having this problem?

  So strange! When I pull it up on my computer I just get a blank screen.. I wonder if it’s an error on my end somehow?

  That might be the case…but I did run a load test on your site to see if there were any bottlenecks that might be causing a time out in loading your site and here were the results:

  It appears you’re using very large images in your posts which may affect load times. This really is important if you’re on a slower connection as it would cause timeout issues, which sounds like what might be happening for you.

  You can reduce the file sizes of the images without sacrificing the quality by optimizing the images. Here’s a page that will help you get started:

  Also, if you’re having trouble accessing your site’s dashboard, you can find it from your My Blogs page and click “Blog Admin”:
