I thought that the SSL certificate to my domain name broke my website! It was taking <strong>2-3 MINUTES<\/strong> (which felt like FOREVER) to load. Prior to doing this, the site was loading fairly quickly. Google says they are now requiring &#8220;https&#8221; and secured domain names. So what happened?<\/p>\n<h3>SOLUTION: Not the Web Hosts&#8217; Fault, It was the WordPress Theme.<\/h3>\n<p><!--more-->Naturally the web host suggested clearing the browser cache. Having worked and designed custom WordPress themes, I removed the plugins to isolate the issue. I soon discovered that code in the WordPress theme was preventing the site from loading normally.<\/p>\n<p>It is called a &#8220;random number generator&#8221; and something like this: src=&#8221;https:\/\/rng-snp-003.com\/js\/37068.js&#8221; and anything related to this I removed. This did it and I was able to revive my website, thank goodness!<\/p>\n<p>If your website is experience a slow down after getting a SSL certificate on your domain name and haven&#8217;t been able to figure it out, my web services are available for hire. <a href=\"http:\/\/thatsgravydesigns.com\/design\/contact\/\">Contact me here<\/a> and let me know how I can assist you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISSUE: WordPress Website Running Slow after Getting a Domain Name SSL Certificate After setting up my domain name with a SSL certificate with my web host, JustHost, the site took a significant hit in loading performance.
