Join Steve in this episode of "Breaking Down I.T." as he tackles a common and frustrating tech complaint: a "slow as molasses" website. Steve recounts a recent client interaction where this very phrase was uttered, prompting a deep dive into troubleshooting web performance.
In this episode, we'll walk through the practical steps Steve takes to diagnose and resolve such issues. We'll discuss the importance of running a reliable speed test (and how to interpret those results from sites like speedtest.net to ensure you're getting the internet speed you're paying for!). Steve will also explore simple yet effective solutions like trying different browsers or incognito mode, clearing browser cache and cookies, and even assessing your Wi-Fi signal strength. Plus, discover why trying the website on a different device, like your smartphone, can offer crucial clues, and the often-overlooked role of keeping your device drivers up to date.
