If your blog’s loading speed dropped after adding new fonts or design elements, large or unoptimized files could be to blame. Web fonts can add significant weight to your pages if not properly optimized, so consider using system fonts or only essential web fonts. Excessive animations can also slow down page speed; use CSS transitions sparingly and avoid loading-intensive animations. Minimize CSS and JavaScript whenever possible and use asynchronous loading to prevent these elements from slowing the initial page load. These steps can help improve loading times while still allowing design flexibility.
