Very slow website

    I know only little about websites and I really need some advice. I had a website built on WordPress 12 months ago and I have never experienced such a poor performing website (I’ve had 11 websites prior to this one). The thing is, I believe it to be not the platform, I think it’s the way it’s been built (or for a better word plugged in) because it uses many of the same images as the previous site (which was custom) but at it loads 1/8 the speed. It has a speed rating of 6/100.. Moreover, 12 months after it went live we only have 2 of our page headers visible on our Google search (we had all 5 on our last site after only 2 weeks). Could it be that instead of putting useful code to do small things the developer has put too many unnecessary plugins to do all the small things needed? We have 79 plugins, it that normal because it seems way too many and no doubt it could be the reason for the slow speed. All advice would be very helpful Simon

    Hi s3f3af62ab72f14

    Can you please mention your site URL for which you need help?

    Also, I think you are using WordPress.org platform.

    This forum is not the right place to get help related to Org sites. The main role of this forum is the help the users with the issues related to the .com sites.

    You can post your question in WordPress.org forum to get the exact solution of your issue. Here is the link for same:
    https://wordpress.org/support/

    WordPress.org and WordPress.com are two different platforms. For more information on both the platform please refer to the link below: https://wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    Hope this helps.
