    There is no doubt that website loading speed is one of the most crucial part of search engine optimization. If our website is loading slow then we can loose lots of sales and customers and It will also drop our search engine rankings.

    & It is true that using lots of plugins influence the loading time on WordPress sites so I always prefer using only and only important plugins.

    By reducing plugins installation, we can improve loading time. 😀
