Hosting images on different domain but same shared hosting + redirecting


I came across this question on stackoverflow. It made me curious to ask.

Q-Part1. It says the advantages of loading images from other domain is useful for speeding Page load because browser send more HTTP requests at a time. My question is that I have two domains but both are on same shared hosting. More precisely all files are loading from same hosting. Will it still send more HTTP requests?

Q-Part2. I am thinking to redirect one domain to another as follows. www.websitedevelopers.com.pk to www.websitedevelopers.pk. If i redirect only html pages from .com.pk to .pk & not images etc will it still get more HTTP requests.

Note : I just jumped into website development so count me a newbie.


Solution

  • Answer Q;Part 1 - There wont be no speed issues if you go multiple sites on shared hosting.

    Answer Q;Part 2 - Redirecting to another domain will not affect your HTTP requests.

    There are several other ways to speed up your website like :

    • Size images before upload
    • Remove unnecessary plugins
    • Enable browser caching
