Well you include the "Follow" Twitter button twice. Once in the side bar and once at the end of the blog. You can also PNGCrush your favicon.png to save 58 bytes. I'm sure I could spot a few more minor savings if I looked, not including minification and cleaning up the CSS, since those were already mentioned. I highly recommend the advice of Heydon Pickering [0]. The best optimizations can be made by not writing code. If I disabled the custom font I'm using (87.7KB) the home page of my "blog" [1] comes in at ~1463 bytes. 802 bytes of which is the CSS, leaving under 1kb of HTML per post once the CSS hits cache. It would have an average load time of ~45ms. [0] https://vimeo.com/190834530 https://vimeo.com/190834530 [1] nadyanay.me
