markjl Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 It seems to me that the use of external fonts from fonts.googleapis.com slows down the site. I have no hard figures, but as I'm looking to decrease the bounce rate, I'm pretty sure speed is a factor. Templates vendors make quite a thing out of saying 400 fonts available, but I have my doubts about the issues here. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrS27 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Hi! I suggest that you don't guess, but test your website performance and see, what's slowing it down. There are a lot of tools to do it. Personally, I prefer Shopping Cart Diagnostics, it's fast and not expensive. plus it can optimise certain elements to make the site load faster. Here's more info about optimising website performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
