Having a terrible time ordering the CSS Styles and Scripts in my header
-
Hi Guys,
I am having a terrible time trying to get the correct optimized (for speed, none blocking etc) order for loading my external css and JS.
I follow the recommendations from Google Page Speed or Chrome Audit and it seems no matter where I move the CSS file too (top or bottom) it complains about more blocking and stopping rendering of the page. My URL is http://www.MyFairyTaleBooks.com if some smart person out there could help me figure out what I am doing wrong and the order in which my should be organized I'd appreciate it!
Oh I'm not a developer but I can re-arrange text in a file!
Thank you!

Would you mind explaining to me how you are finding this information. What do I need to look for specifically? I'm having the same issues except there's 11 blocking script resources and 13 blocking CSS resources. I'm not finding too much information on searches (that I understand) nor do I understand Google's mod_pagespeed. Thank you very much. Sorry to highjack the forum. It was the only Q&A that came up in the Moz search.

Thank you seems to have cleared that one item up at least!

It seems fixed on my end, also the javascript problem is fixed too. Clear your cache and try, see this screenshot http://screencast.com/t/y93SDZScAR

Thanks! I did the move and it still complains, maybe it is the external justuno.com stuff that is really the problem?

Check it now, the editor bugged out.

Do not see anything

I did not notice this before, but it looks like you have a js error on your site. Try moving this
Right under this line
rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.myfairytalebooks.com/product_images/favicon.ico?1370451016" />

Hi Sorry,
I miss-understood, I did what you suggested and it still complains this time about 2 blocking scripts and 1 blocking css

All of the css needs to be included before the first line of javascript, including inline javascript. That is why you would move that css up to where you deleted the two lines from.

Where do you suggest the actual CSS include happen at the very beginning or the very end of the
-
Try taking these two lines out
http-equiv="Content-Script-Type" content="text/javascript" />
http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" />
And moving this line to where they were
href="http://www.myfairytalebooks.com/templates/__custom/Styles/styles.css" media="all" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />

Removing Non Essential Scripts in WordPress to Boost Speed
If this is a duplicate post or someone has already asked this i do apologize. Ive been seeking help in increasing our page speed for sometime now and to no avail. https://tools.pingdom.com/#5e9dc9ab78000000 - Seems our page has just too many scripts which is a drag on the load time. We have a dedicated server and dont think its the issue as other websites on there load just fine.

Something about this website www.catdi.com that just makes it top heavy. I've tried a CDN and that didn't work in fact it made it slower.. My question is i believe there's a way to remove, or combine all these scripts that are increasing our load time? Carlos3 -
Anyone available to hire part time for SEO services?
I have a website (http://www.tbreak.ae) that does tech news and reviews and is based out of the Middle East. I would love to learn more about SEO and do the best job but I just don't have the time. I was thus wondering is there is anyone available that can spend about an hour on my site every day optimising content. I don't know if posting such as offer is allowed or not either but if it is, and if you are interested, then please get back to me on how much it would cost.

Meta refresh and java script
I am getting a page nt accessible to search engines error and I believe the reason is that the meta refresh is using a java script reference in the url. meta-refresh: 0;URL=http://mastermindtoys.com/store/nojavascript.html is it possible to tell the robot to use the java script or turn it off or something? or should the meta refresh be changed?

How many times to use keyword
So if I have my main site, blog and article directory section, can I use keyword in all three places, but obviously different, unique content? And if so, can I link them to make it even more powerful?
