Today google announced they will probably start basing their results by site load times. Over the summer by chance I had my web designers do a big overhaul on my site to load faster and more efficiently to create a better user experience when comparing it to other sites I compete with. It seems like google will now be taking that into account as well.

Google will consider load times in mobile search rankings
 
I'm building a new one now and that is part of the focus. Mobile is also my primary format focus.

How are you doing the live slide show? Are you manually popping them into a powerpoint or is there software you use?

I'm in the process of setting up a new wordpress site. I've been fighting speed issues for a few years so I'm going to re-try wordpress again and see what it comes up with. I've also chosen a new site name; www.CatchMePretty.com. It beats "Ryan Photography, DJ & Lighting".

Cache everything you can and use a CDN. JetPack is built by Automatic. inexpensive, and has a bunch of extras but only caches media. CloudFlare is very good. The free plan has been serving ODJT well.
