My wordpress site loads really slow because the size of each page is huge. The JS and CSS files are taking most of the room. My wordpress site is located here: <<snipped>>

Does anyone have ideas for how I can cut down page size and reduce load times?

For starters, you should minify your JS and CSS files and enable gzip compression. You could then further optimize your site, for example by combining CSS and JS files and by optimizing the order they are loaded.

I tried using gzip but I didn't see a difference
