You may be wondering why you should be concerned about your website's speed. There are a number of reasons, but the two most critical items are search engine ranking and lost revenue. Most people understand the importance of both items, but there are some who may not be aware of the impact a slow website can have.
1.Switching to a better hosting company
2.Prefer clean code
3.Avoid large image and wrong image format
4.Use compression software
5.Use of cache
These tips can make a big difference in your website's speed. Most of these steps can be tackled by individuals with intermediate skills. However, the process may be too complicated for many users.
It is very easy for unwanted code to sneak into your website, when you rely on programs that do not require much HTML or XHTML knowledge. This extra code may not affect your websites functionality, but it can really slow things down. Also, using XHTML is preferred over HTML which is slower. This is one scenario when it may be worth it to get an expert to help out, if you do not feel comfortable removing unnecessary code on your own.

If you have a lot of images, it’s essential to learn about the optimal format for each image. There are three common web image file formats: JPEG, GIF, and PNG. In general, you should use JPEG for realistic photos with smooth gradients and color tones. You should use GIF or PNG for images that have solid colors (such as charts and logos).
GIF and PNG are similar, but PNG typically produces a lower file size. Read Coding Horror’s weigh-in on using PNG’s over GIF’s.

Improve your website speed by having using style css. Also try to have better content with good font so that it will load fast. Also make sure website must has a cache because it will really helpful to get load the website fast.
Use of less inline element will also decrease the loading of a website. You need to use compressed images whenever images are needed on a website as they take maximum time for loading.
Image files are often created with extra information embedded in the file. For example, JPEG files written by many image programs include the name of the program that wrote them. PNG images can often be made smaller by changing the way the image is encoded. These transformations are lossless. That is, the compressed image looks identical to the uncompressed image, but uses fewer bytes.
Avoid using large sized image. Compress the image size and use.
Use best web server.
Also unlink your images. It is also increase your website loading speed.
For Joomla website use "light httpd" instead of apache.
For Magento website do good practical hosting
