I'm trying Google's PageSpeed online service
Ironically, it's primarily highlighting Google's own services as something that needs improvement on my site
1) jQuery from Google: blocking. So I moved all javascript from <head>
to the end of the document before </body>
. That helped
2) Linking to external Google Font CSS (in <head>
): blocking. But the font is critical to the design of the page and should load before much else
3) Google Analytics: Caching is not good. (Google has set it internally to 2 hours expiration). Don't know how to change this (this is also placed at the bottom of page)
The Google Font is highlighted as a big priority to change.
How can I fix this? Where/how should I call the the font?
