The loading speed of a website is an important factor for SEO. Google give more weight to the slow loading websites but to speedup the WordPress applications, you can utilize following tips:

  1. Split your website comments into pages.
  2. Use HTML and Java-script compressors
  3. Choose a good web host for your website
  4. Optimize the images because adding a lot of images in the website also reduce the loading speed.
  5. Use a cache plugin: Website speed deceases when the number of users visiting your website increases. To fix this issue, use cache plugins.
  6. Optimize the database tables: The database also needs to be optimized to increase the speed.
  7. Remove inactive plugins from your WordPress website.

Using certain plugins in the Word press site also reduce the loading speed of the website and following are some of the plugins that can cause a significant reduce in the WordPress website speed:
1. JetPack
2. Contact Form 7
3. Really Simple CAPTCHA
4. Simple Lightbox
5. WP Super Cache"
6. Yarp

First check if your hosting are good, if all is ok clear cache, check theme bugs or plugins, also if images have big size is other problem.

To speed up your site loading, try to consider these things:

1. Reduce your site's work in resizing images. Try to load the original size of your images on your site.
2. Minimize the scripting such as Javascript, too much CSS styles, etc.
3. Upgrade your server's RAM and CPU. 2 GB RAM and 4 CPUs are better. Most of the standard server only has 250MB of RAM and 2 CPUs.
4. Install a script compressor plugin on your site.

I normally turn to speed plugins whenever time calls for it. But some experts would not encourage doing so for some technical reasons.

You should use WP Rocket. This is the best Wordpress plugin for speed according to many bloggers in the world including me.
This plugin really speed up my Wordpress blogs, affiliate sites...
And the speed rely on Hosting service as well.
And use a CDN.
Hope this help!
