How to make blog load faster

The key is to have compressed pictures, video links from Youtube and short description setting i believe.  I removed the labels from the settings, now the site loads in 3.2 secs

You can also use these free tools to measure the blog load time.

1. http://tools.pingdom.com/    It gives you the time taken by different page elements to load.

2. http://pagespeed.googlelabs.com/   Gives you suggestions to speed up your site.

Thanks for sharing . the first link is very good .

Checked out the second link but I hardly have the technical knowledge to implement the suggestions.

@dhiraj, ranijth thank you:).

Also, for wordpress users, the super cache plugin is very helpful. It is one of the most widely used plugins.

But the stopwatch mentioned by you only shows the total time taken to load the blog. So, there seems to be no way to find out the element that is delaying an otherwise speedy blog.

At Ranjith , you can use the first link given by Abhi 

Thanks
