Always try to use compressed JavaScript because the uncompressed form of JavaScript takes more time to read by the browser.

2. Use Small Size of Media (Image/Video) Files
The big-size images take more time to open in a web browser. So, if you want to make your website load faster, you should reduce the size of your media files. If your site is WordPress-oriented, you can use any image optimization plugin like WP Smush.it.
If you don’t want to reduce the quality of the picture, crop the unnecessary part of the picture and upload on your website. In my case, I simply use Photoshop to edit and optimize the media files.
3. Remove Blank Space From Your Source Code
White space or blank space wastes the needy space of your page which also takes part in slowing your website loading speed. You can remove it to improve your website loading speed.
However, it takes some time in removing the white space from source code depending on how much blank space available in your code. If you have no free time for this work, you can remove blank space by using any HTML optimizer available on Internet and can be used online.
4. Enable Webpage Caching
Webpage caching is a mechanism to make a temporary storage of HTML (static) pages and images. It means if anyone visits your site, browser stores that page temporarily and delivers the static page every time rather than the original dynamic page so that it will render more faster than ever before.
Caching is also used to reduce bandwidth usage and server load. That’s why the websites load faster after using webpage caching. If you are running a WordPress blog, you can use some of the plugins like WP Super Cache (I use on this blog) to enable caching of webpages.
5. Use Content Distribution Network (CDN)
Content Delivery Network is a large distributed system connected through multiple servers spread in multiple data centers across Internet. CDN can make heavy-multimedia and JavaScript pages load quickly. Content Delivery Network (CDN) is suitable for big and financially strong companies because of it’s expensiveness.
However, if your website is using low bandwidth, you can go for a free CDN for beginner – CloudFlare. Other than this, if you can pay a little of $10 (approx) budget per month, you can start with MaxCDN, a popular content delively network all over the world.
