What is V2Ray?

V2Ray on a Virtual Server is a powerful solution for setting up secure and flexible proxy connections. V2Ray, or the vmess protocol to be precise, is a sophisticated version of the famous Shadowsocks. At its core, V2Ray is also based on the SOCKS5 proxy. Normally, proxies lack encryption, which is what differentiates a VPN from a proxy. Shadowsocks is a SOCKS5 proxy with encryption, and vmess is the next-generation version of Shadowsocks.

When using V2Ray on a Virtual Server, you can take advantage of two main protocols: vmess, V2Ray’s own protocol, and Shadowsocks. Additionally, vmess offers several tunneling and obfuscation options to enhance privacy and bypass firewalls:

  1.  TCP – It is the default connection. “TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a type of protocol or standard to transfer information over the Internet, such as SSH, FTP, HTTP, etc.“
  2.  Websocket – With WebSocket you can hide your VPS IP address behind a domain name, making it harder for the VPN-blocking firewall to blacklist the IP address.
  3. mKCP – An alternative to TCP, could be faster than TCP. Could be useful if you need a UDP-like protocol.
  4. QUIC – Google’s alternative to TCP and UDP. Based on UDP. Could be faster than TCP.
In addition, you can mask some of the above protocols and make them look like a Wireguard, WeChat video, torrent, VOIP, or DTLS traffic.
v2ray

Choosing a VPS

I recommend renting a cheap Linux VPS. In case the IP address is blocked, you can open a new server. Find a less popular VPS provider because the firewalls could target the popular ones more often that the smaller ones.
Mainly, you can find two types of VPS, OpenVZ and KVM. Mostly KVM is preferable, because you can use the “Google BBR” command to increase the speed.

There is a way to check whether a VPS service has a working IP address before making a payment. Google “vps looking glass”, and you will find several looking glass pages of VPS services. If you can download the test files without using a VPN, then you can invest your money for the virtual server.

After renting a server, you can test the IP address before installing v2ray. Go to Putty (or an alternative) type in the IP address, if you do not encounter an error, then you are good to go. Alternatively you can ping their IP address using an app.
After ensuring that VPS IPs address is not blocked, you can use a VPN when connecting to your server via Putty or an alternative to prevent the IP address blocking.

Setting up V2Ray

Update:
1) If you are interested in an advanced v2ray configuration websocket(ws)+tls+cdn with a multi-user management panel, please click here to check out the new tutorial. Also, you can check the
trojan GFW tutorial.

2) If this script does not work for you, and you only need simple v2ray TCP, you can install the script described on the v2ray +ws+tls+cdn tutorial. You only need to do Part-1 (install the script), skip Part-2 (SSL, domain, CDN), and choose TCP on the web panel.

Thanks to the one-command script by 233blog.com, you can install v2ray even if you are not familiar with Linux commands.

You need to have at least Ubuntu 16, Debian 8, or CentOS 7.

This guide will be for Ubuntu.

1. First make updates and upgrades

ubuntusudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade

2. Run the v2ray script

bash <(curl -s -L https://git.io/v2ray.sh)

If you run into the error “curl command not found” then run an apt-get update -y && apt-get install curl -y

3. The first question will ask you which version you choose. No major differences between 1 and 2. You can choose 1.

4. Next you choose the protocol. For the sake of simplicity let’s choose TCP.

5. Now you choose the port. You can choose the default value or change it. I choose port 23432.

6. Then you choose to install an ad-blocker or not. It is noted that performance may be affected if ad-blocker is activated. I chose not to install it.

7. You will be asked whether you also want to install Shadowsocks. If you type Y,  then you will have to choose a Shadowsocks port, a password, and an encryption method. I will keep it simple and choose not to install Shadowsocks.

8. And lastly, you press Enter to proceed or Ctrl+C to cancel. After a while, the setup will be complete. Now you can get v2ray configuration by typing v2ray qr (for QR code) or v2ray link (for URL).

Managing  V2Ray

V2ray commands

v2ray info – View V2Ray configuration information
v2ray config – Modify V2Ray configuration
v2ray link – Generate V2Ray configuration file link
v2ray infolink – Generate V2Ray configuration information link
v2ray qr – Generate V2Ray configuration QR code link
v2ray ss – Modify Shadowsocks configuration
v2ray ssinfo – View Shadowsocks configuration information
v2ray ssqr – Generate Shadowsocks Configure QR code link
v2ray status – View V2Ray running status
v2ray start – Start V2Ray
v2ray stop – stop V2Ray
v2ray restart – restart V2Ray
v2ray log – View V2Ray Run log
v2ray update – Update V2Ray
v2ray update.sh – update V2Ray management script
v2ray uninstall – Uninstall V2Ray

Adding multiple users on v2ray (Bonus)

The v2ray script adds only one user as a default, you can add multiple users by editing the config file. Normally, you would not need to add multiple users, since multiple users can use the same configuration. I have added this section as a bonus.
1. First, generate multiple UUIDs on the uuidgenerator.net
2. Next, SSH into your VPS and type nano /etc/v2ray/config.json to edit the config file
3. Default configuration of users is given as following:
“users”: [
{
“id”: “b831381d-6324-4d53-ad4f-8cda48b30811”,
“alterId”: 233
}
]
4. You shoud edit the config as given below, note that I add a comma sign (,)  and copy and paste the above user config in brackets and change the uuid:
“users”: [
{
“id”: “b831381d-6324-4d53-ad4f-8cda48b30811”,
“alterId”: 233
},
{
“id”: “z454362o-4324-8b12-gh1l-8zer71r59603”,
“alterId”: 233

}
]
5. You can add as many users as you want following the above guide. Just repeat the process. After adding users press Ctrl+X to exit the config, and press Y to save the changes.

Best Web Hosting for Small Businesses

Web Hosting For Small Businesses is a crucial consideration for every company entering the digital space. Every business understands that entering the realm of web hosting is unavoidable. It’s a key aspect of keeping your site reliable and accessible, as well as making it appear more professional to visitors. But which services are most beneficial to small and medium-sized businesses?

About Web Hosting?

Web hosting is a service that gives you your own personal area (server) on the internet where you may store your website and make it visible to the public. It allows internet people to see your website. Your website would not be accessible without web hosting.

It may be used for a variety of personal and business purposes, including storing vital information such as MP3s and tax documents, as well as assisting professionals and creatives in running a small or medium-sized business. Either your website will share a server with other websites or it will have its own dedicated server.

Which Web Hosting For Small Businesses Is Recommended?

Before you choose a web hosting package, you should think about a lot of things. First and foremost, consider the quantity of traffic that your site will receive. Then you must determine which sort of hosting package is most appropriate for your requirements. For small and medium enterprises in Malaysia, we offer shared hosting or VPS hosting.

Shared Web Hosting

Shared hosting is a type of web hosting in which numerous websites are hosted on a single server. Although it is the cheapest web hosting option, you will have to share space and bandwidth with other websites on the same server. To put it another way, shared hosting is similar to renting a room in a house. The remaining rooms are occupied by other renters, with whom you must share the communal areas. Shared hosting is designed for small enterprises, blogs, and other websites that require little resources.

ServerGigabit provides Eco Shared Hosting Malaysia plans with One-Click Installer, complimentary SSL certificates, and free data backup at an extremely low price. You should get a Business Web Hosting Plan if you’re seeking for an appropriate hosting plan to compliment your little budget for your e-commerce website. ServerGigabit’s Business Web Hosting plans are 4X more powerful than standard Shared Hosting plans, and include a combination of 84X faster LiteSpeed Technology and Enterprise-grade SSD storage.

shared web hosting

VPS Hosting

A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a virtual server created by slicing a single physical server into many virtual servers. Each virtual server has its own operating system (OS), to which customers have full root or administrator access. They can install nearly any programme that is compatible with that operating system. VPS hosting is more akin to renting a room in a building. It is sufficiently private, and you have complete control over your server.

VPS Hosting is ideal for small to medium-sized organizations that are expanding. If your website’s traffic starts to reach a thousand visits per month and you’re experiencing delays, it’s time to upgrade your RAM. If that’s the case, a virtual private server (VPS) will be ideal for you. ServerGigabit offers a variety of VPS hosting solutions in Malaysia, including Linux VPS Hosting, Windows VPS Hosting, and Forex VPS Hosting.

VPS

How to Choose a Web Hosting Provider

The ideal web hosting for your business is one that can meet all of your demands, including budgetary constraints and technical requirements. When selecting a Web Hosting Company, you must also examine variables such as company risk and regional coverage.

Here are a few things to think about:

Uptime: The length of time a server can stay up and running is referred to as uptime. It’s a terrific approach to assess a web hosting provider’s capacity to keep their systems up and operating. Make sure that the web hosting company you choose has at least 99.9% uptime since this is the minimum criterion for a decent web hosting company.

Speed: Nobody wants to spend time on a website that takes years to load. As a result, you must ensure that you select the appropriate web hosting company and plan for your website’s requirements. Now is the time to contact our sales team for assistance and suggestions on the finest web hosting services for your Malaysian business.

Security is a major concern for website owners and users, especially when a website collects personal information such as bank account numbers, addresses, and other information. To protect your data and the data of your visitors, be sure your web hosting package includes an SSL certificate and other security safeguards.

Support: It is critical for a web hosting company to provide excellent customer service. When looking for a web host, seek one that offers 24/7 assistance.

If you’re looking for a web hosting service in Malaysia, you’ve come to the right place. With all of our web hosting Malaysia plans, ServerGigabit guarantees quick loading times, 24/7 support, and 99.9% uptime. Continue reading to learn which web hosting is best for your company website.

Firewall and Protection against DDoS

Knowing the importance of how your Firewalls and protection methods defend you against threats to your servers such as DDoS attacks. It may be a scary thought but your server is prone to attacks such as DDoS which may threaten your online business and its functions. But have no fear for your servers come equipped with their own Firewalls and protection methods to help prevent your server from any potential threats.

Even though a dedicated server is capable of protecting your server from potential DDoS threats, you may still want to consider some other options to enhance your website or application protection from these potential threats.

There are two main principles as to why businesses require a firewall for their websites and applications and those are Prevention and Mitigation. In order to understand how these two principles interact with each other to safeguard your website or web application from an attack such as a DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attack, this article will provide a more in-depth explanation to both of these concepts.

Mitigation

DDoS mitigation services use a combination of advanced techniques to protect networks, servers, and applications from being overwhelmed by malicious traffic. These services are designed to identify, filter, and block harmful traffic while allowing legitimate users to access resources without interruption. By implementing multiple layers of defense, businesses can maintain service availability and minimize the risk of downtime caused by DDoS attacks.

One of the primary techniques used in DDoS mitigation is traffic filtering. This method acts as the first line of defense, analyzing incoming traffic and blocking suspicious requests based on source and destination addresses, protocols, or other packet information. Filtering also relies on known attack signatures, which help the system detect and block malicious traffic automatically, reducing the impact of potential attacks before they reach critical infrastructure.

Another important component is application layer gateways. These gateways are specifically designed to allow legitimate and safe traffic to pass through the firewall while blocking malicious requests that target websites or applications. This additional layer of security ensures that attackers cannot exploit application vulnerabilities or overwhelm servers with spoofed requests. Overall, DDoS mitigation services combine these and other advanced techniques to secure networks and applications, prevent attacks, and maintain smooth operations even under heavy or complex DDoS threats.

DDoS mitigation

Prevention

Complex DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks are becoming more frequent, affecting businesses of all sizes. These attacks can overload servers, consume bandwidth, and disrupt online services, leading to financial loss and reputational damage. The first step in prevention is identifying whether your systems are truly under attack. Monitoring key resources like bandwidth, CPU, memory, and disk space can help detect unusual spikes in traffic or server slowdowns, which are common signs of a DDoS assault.

Once an attack is identified, businesses can take several measures to mitigate its impact. Small companies might focus on increasing bandwidth, adding redundant servers, or using simple traffic filtering methods. Larger organizations often need more advanced solutions such as specialized DDoS mitigation tools, content delivery networks (CDNs), or botnet detection systems to neutralize malicious traffic before it reaches critical servers. The goal is to maintain service availability even under heavy attack.

Proactive planning is essential to stay protected against evolving threats. Businesses and governments should develop a clear DDoS defense strategy that identifies potential vulnerabilities and determines which types of attacks are most likely. Regularly testing and updating defenses, monitoring traffic, and investing in reliable mitigation tools can help organizations minimize downtime, maintain customer trust, and ensure that operations continue smoothly even during complex DDoS attacks.

Firewalls and Protection

Conclusion

Businesses and governments are becoming increasingly vulnerable to DDoS attacks as cybercriminals continue to develop more sophisticated techniques. The consequences of such attacks can range from temporary service disruptions to significant financial losses and reputational damage. Therefore, it is critical for organizations to take a proactive approach rather than waiting to respond after an attack occurs.

Developing a comprehensive DDoS protection plan begins with identifying and understanding the various threats that your organization might face. By recognizing the types of attacks that are most likely to target your systems—whether volumetric, protocol-based, or application-layer attacks—you can implement tailored countermeasures to mitigate their impact effectively. This may include investing in advanced mitigation services, expanding server capacity, or deploying traffic filtering and application layer gateways.

Ultimately, preparedness is key. Organizations that anticipate potential attacks and implement a multi-layered defense strategy can maintain business continuity, protect sensitive data, and preserve customer trust. By continually monitoring, testing, and updating defenses, businesses and governments can stay ahead of emerging threats and ensure that their systems remain resilient even in the face of complex DDoS assaults.

This blog is a beginner’s guide for those interested in learning about cloud computing, its benefit, and the various levels of cloud computing.

Before we go some farther, let us first clarify:

What exactly is cloud computing?

Cloud computing refers to on-demand applications that are provided over the internet. This service is broadly defined as follows:

  1. Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS)
  2. Platform as a Service (PAAS)
  3. Software as a Service (SAAS)

Benefits of using Cloud Computing

Flexibility: Companies with fluctuating latency requirements need the flexibility of Cloud Computing. If you need a large amount of bandwidth, you may increase your storage space. When you don’t need a lot of bandwidth, simply scale down. There is no reason to be tethered to a rigidly fixed capacity infrastructure.

Disaster Recovery: Cloud Computing offers comprehensive backup and recovery solutions hosted in the cloud. As a result, there is no need to invest more money on in-house disaster management. It often saves time when it comes to emergency recovery.

Automatic Software Upgrades: The majority of cloud service companies offer automatic software updates. This removes the additional challenge of downloading a new product release and keeping up with the most recent software installs.

Low Capital Expenditure: In cloud storage, the Pay as You Go approach is used. This ensures that there is very little initial capital outlay. A contingent charge is made conditional on use.

Collaboration: Applications can be shared between teams in a cloud environment. This improves team members’ collaboration and communication.

Remote Work: Cloud systems allow for the simplicity of operating from anywhere. There is no job done on-site. Anyone, at any time, will communicate and begin operating.

Security: Cloud hosting systems are more reliable than traditional onsite jobs. Data maintained on local servers and machines is vulnerable to security threats. There are very few loose ends of Cloud Computing. Cloud vendors provide their customers with a safe operating atmosphere.

Document Control: Storing records in a shared archive improves visibility and accountability across businesses and their customers. There are fewer risks of inconsistencies since there is only one shared copy.

Competitive Pricing: Since there are many participants in cloud services, they keep fighting among themselves to have really decent pricing. As opposed to other alternatives, this is significantly less expensive.

Environmentally friendly: Cloud storage conserves valuable natural capital. By not obstructing energy and bandwidth.

Different layers of Cloud computing

Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS): Operators of IAAS offer low-level abstractions of physical hardware. IAAS is exemplified by Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS offers EC2 for computation, S3 buckets for storage, among other services. This layer’s resources primarily consist of hardware such as power, processing power, network bandwidth, and so on.

An IAAS provider may have real, interactive, or a combination of the two types of services. These assets are used to build a cloud.

For these facilities, the IAAS vendor often performs authentication and backup recovery. Servers, storage, routers, switches, and other associated hardware are the primary tools in IAAS.

Platform as a Service (PAAS): PAAS companies have controlled resources such as Rails, Django, etc. Google App Engineer is a clear example of PAAS. These are the worlds in which developers can easily create complex applications.

PAAS providers manage scaling and efficiency, while developers concentrate solely on designing applications.

A PaaS provider provides a framework from which clients can create, operate, and maintain software without having to instal the infrastructure themselves.

Clients save time with PAAS by not creating and managing infrastructure environments aligned with the app they choose to build.

Software as a Service (SAAS): A SAAS company provides customers with a fully functional software framework. SAAS examples include Salesforce and Github. They conceal the underlying details of the programme and only include a user experience for working with the machine. The version of the software can be quickly updated behind the scenes.

The most significant advantage of SaaS is that a client may introduce new users on the fly depending on their existing requirements. Furthermore, the customer is not required to install or retain any device on its premises in order to utilise this software.

Different deployment models in Cloud computing

Private Cloud: Several businesses create their private cloud. A private cloud is an entirely functional database managed, controlled, and utilised by a single company.

The main argument for using a private cloud is for convenience. Many businesses feel secure in a private cloud. Other explanations for constructing a private cloud include business decisions or operational leverage.

There is also the idea of a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). A hosting firm builds and manages a private cloud in VPC.

However, it is only used by one company.

Public Cloud: Several organisations have cloud services available for usage and distribution by the general public and large corporations. For example, Google Apps, Amazon Web Services, and so on.

Public cloud services concentrate on layers and technologies such as cloud application, infrastructure management, and so on. Resources are exchanged among various organisations in this model.

Hybrid Cloud: The Hybrid cloud is a mix of public and private clouds. This method combines the advantages of both private and public cloud computing. As a result, it is a rather strong forum.

A customer has access to the functionalities and capabilities of all cloud systems. A company may use a hybrid cloud to build its own cloud and transfer ownership of its cloud to a third party.

The Future of Digital Advertising Without Cookies

Millions of people are part of a worldwide experiment to eliminate cookies forever. Google has been testing innovative browser-based technology in Chrome since last month, and it has the potential to transform the global advertising market completely. The majority of those interested in the trial are presumably unaware of it, but critical voices are voicing concerns as the project progresses.

German, French, and Belgian regulators are also scrutinising Google’s plans. Simultaneously, several of the world’s more famous websites have chosen to bypass Google’s trials altogether, with a host of businesses finding ways for users to circumvent the framework.

The Federated Learning of Cohorts (FLoC) scheme is part of Google’s larger Privacy Sandbox programme, which would see the end of third-party targeting cookies in early 2022. Websites choose which advertisements to display you in one of three forms. You may see an ad for a pair of shoes because you placed them in your shopping cart last week; whether you’re reading an article about cars, the advertisements you see might also be about automobiles; or the ads you see might be dependent on your preferences. FLoC, like third-party cookies, is concerned with ads depending on your preferences.

Cookies currently enable marketers to send you advertisements tailored to you because they are dependent on your unique browsing history. FLoC is intended to eliminate this person targeting by broadening the net. If you use FLoC, Chrome can collect your web background and link it to other people’s patterns. You would then be assigned to a squad, or cohort, of thousands of other people who are similar to you. Advertisers would also advertise whole populations of people rather than actual people.

It’s not only the magnitude of the transition but also who’s behind it. Google, whose holding firm Alphabet made a staggering $55 billion in sales in the previous three months, controls the worldwide advertising market. Regulators are rightly concerned.

“The FLoC technology raises some concerns about the GDPR’s legal requirements,” says Johannes Caspar, Hamburg’s data protection commissioner. “Integrating users into FLoCs could be seen as a processing of personal details. And this necessitates voluntarily granted permission as well as direct and open facts regarding these operations.” In brief, Google must ensure that users actually want to use FLoC rather than getting the system enabled by default in Chrome. Caspar continues that there are risks in how cohorts will be used to “draw assumptions” on people’s browsing habits and how specific FLoC cohorts would be.

FLoC is confusing more than just German regulators. A spokesperson for France’s data regulator, the Commission Nationale de l’Informatique et des Libertés, or CNIL, says the country is “especially attentive” to technology that may substitute cookies because it could need access to details already stored on people’s computers. According to the CNIL, such a scheme will necessitate “specific, knowledgeable, and unambiguous approval.” If Google fails to do so, the consequences may be serious. The French regulator fined Google $120 million in December 2020 for not seeking people’s consent when using cookies.

Other officials are more concerned about competition issues. Officials in Belgium are eager to learn how future competitive programmes can be and how they can conform to data privacy laws. Since January, the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority and data privacy agency, the Information Commissioner’s Office, have been looking at Google’s plans. And the Irish Data Protection Commission, which is in charge of many big technology firms with European headquarters in Dublin, claims it has been working with Google on the plans.

Google is fully conscious of the possible pitfalls of FLoC. For example, the technology is yet to be tested in the European Union. “EU privacy legislation establishes strong expectations for interface accountability and regulation, which is what we plan for FLoC,” says Marshall Vale, a Chrome product manager at Google. “We understand that the involvement of data privacy agencies is critical to making this correct, which is why we have started early stage discussions regarding the technology and our plans.” Google has also stated that it intends to launch software that would enable users to opt-out of being assigned to FLoC cohorts.

At a moment when the number of hacking attempts and fraudulent activities is rising with each passing day, website owners and online users are becoming much more concerned about their security. Having built an SSL certificate has therefore become a requirement for every website.

As you probably know, two types of SSL certificates exist. The first is ‘Free SSL Certificate’ which is available for free as the name implies. The other paying one is commonly referred to as the ‘SSL Certificate.’

how to choose an SSL certificate

FREE SSL Validation

Domain Validated (DV) SSL certificates are quick and easy to get because all you need to do is prove the ownership of the domain that you wish to secure.

Paid SSL Validation

Domain Validated (DV) SSL certificates are quick and easy to get because all you need to do is prove the ownership of the domain that you wish to secure.

Organization Validated (OV) SSL certificates provide validation and higher assurance to web visitors that the website belongs to a legitimate business.

Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates are the ultimate solution to provide the highest levels of encryption, security, and trust to your customers.

Key Differences Between Free SSL and Paid SSL

Type of SSL Certificate

Free SSL certificates only come with a Domain Validation (DV) option. DV certificates are used only for providing a basic level of authentication. Usually, they are used for platforms such as small websites and blogs. Free SSL certificates don’t have the provision for Organization Validation (OV) and Extended Validation (EV) certificates. Whereas the paid SSL certificates do come with OV & EV options, which are absolutely necessary for protecting business websites.

Level of Validation 

When it comes to verifying a website owner’s business details before issuing a free certificate, CA does not validate anything apart from the identity of the website owner. While in the case of paid SSL certificates, verification of the identity of the website owner is a must before issuing the certificate to the site owner and in the case of OV & EV certificates, in-depth verification of the business is carried out by the certificate authority (CA).

Validity Period

Free SSL certificates provided by popular CAs are issued for 30-90 days. As a result, the website proprietor must renew the certificate every 30-90 days. In the case of paid certificates, they can be issued for a period of 1-2 years.

Support

The certificate authorities (CAs) and resellers of paid certificates are dedicated to helping their customers round the clock. Those customers get to choose whichever type of support they want, be whether its chat, email or call. On the other hand, free CA’s don’t assist their customers with such remarkable support because they can’t afford to. If you need help with an issue regarding free SSL, you’re going to have sifted through a bunch of old forum posts to find it.

Level of Trust

As mentioned earlier, the free certificates assist with domain level validation only. If one wants to get OV and EV certificates, he/she has no option but to go with paid SSL certificates. With OV & EV certificates comes visual indicators such as the business name in URL and Certificate information and better site seals. Whereas, free SSL certificates don’t deliver such privileges.

Warranty

With a free SSL certificate, if anything goes wrong on the CA’s end – like, a catastrophic failure of their PKI for instance – you are completely out of luck. Paid SSL certificates don’t have this issue, because they come backed by warranties that payout anywhere between 10 grand and 1.75 mils.

Speed up website and increase your revenue. Follow these tips to improve your page speed and raise your traffic.

Today, page speed is a crucial factor in digital marketing. It directly affects:

  • How long users stay on your website

  • How many visitors convert into paying customers

  • Your ranking in organic search results

Page speed is becoming increasingly important for search engine rankings. Unfortunately, many websites struggle with slow load times, which can directly hurt traffic, user engagement, and revenue.

How to speed up website?

Minimize HTTP requests

The first step to minimizing your requests is to figure out how many your site currently makes, to use as a benchmark.If you use Google Chrome, you can use the browser’s Developer Tools to see how many HTTP requests your site makes.

Right-click on the page you want to analyze, and click “Inspect,” then click the “Network” tab. (If you don’t see the “Network” tab, you may need to expand the Developer Tools sidebar by dragging the left border to the left.)

speed up your website

The “Name” column shows all of the files on the page, the “Size” column shows the size of each file, and the “Time” column shows how long it takes to load each file.

 

Minify and Combine files

You can reduce this amount by “mining” and combining your files. This reduces the file size and the total number of files. Instead of accessing 3 files, the website actually only has access to 1 file. Since any unnecessary piece of code adds to the size of your website, it’s important to eliminate extra space, line breaks, and indentation. This ensures that your pages are as lean as you can.

There are several ways to minify and combine files, and if your site runs on WordPress, plugins like WP Rocket make the process fairly simple.

 

Avoid bad requests

Difference between optimized page and bad request page

Broken ties result in an error of 404/410. Those are creating unnecessary demands. Fix the broken URLs (pay particular attention to the images). Using a broken link checker online or use a free WordPress link checker. You can also read about Xenu Link Sleuth and Screaming Frog tools from SEOmoz that can be really helpful.

 

Reduce DNS lookups

DNS lookups take a meaningful amount of time to look up the IP address for a hostname. The browser cannot do anything until the lookup is complete. Reducing the number of unique hostnames may increase response times. Just look at how a DNS lookup can take about 3 seconds of load time in SEOmoz. You can measure yours, by using Pingdom Tools. I do want to mention that when I re-tested the homepage of SEOmoz.org from a server in Dallas, it showed better results than it did before I started writing this article.

 

Optimize images

Images can contain extra comments and use useless colors. Keeping image sizes to a minimum is a big help for users on slow connections. Try to save in JPEG format.JPEG Format is samller than PNG format.

Example Compression Tools To Use : Adobe Photoshop,TinyPNG,JPEG Mini

 

Choose The Right Hosting Plan

Most people choose the cheapest hosting for their website. If your website is serving few visitors, its okay but serving up to thousands of visitors per days we suggest choose premium business hosting for better response and smoother for visitors. Plan the content you wish to host before choosing a web hosting because if the content is heavy with images, video, heavy css, it will slow down your website load time too.

You can still upgrade later on, find for the hosting plans that sufficient for your need or above your need if you have more budget. There are reasons why you need a better hosting plan for your business.A good web hosting plan can help to block malicious activities.
