    Yes, Loading time is otherwise known as site speed is the one of the major factor for SEO. People are used to neglect sites which are taking more time load in. I know one method of reducing loading time by using GZIP plugin or add GZIP code in .HTACCESS file.
    This will reduce your website size by half or more than half.
    So that, It will make your website loaded at the time when someone open clicks.

    There is also a very useful extension to increase Magento website speed effectively called Defer Javascript extension by deferring JavaScript files loading after all HTML and CSS files loading so that a web page will render HTML and CSS in advance.

    - Automatically defer parsing of JavaScript till the last moment after all HTML and CSS loading

    - Reduce loading time and speed up Magento sites (both Magento 1 and Magento 2)

    Along with Magento 1 version, Defer JavaScript for Magento 2 also brings awesome benefits for sites when speeding up and reducing loading time effectively which improves customer experience

    Follow some of our practical solutions to optimize Magento site’s loading time : http://www.magesolution.com/blog/optimize-magento-site/
    Modify .htaccess file

    In your .htaccess file, you can add the following code to enable mod_deflate module of Apache and it will increase the ability to compress your CSS, JS, Text in order to speed up the loading time.

    <IfModule mod_deflate.c>

    ############################################
    ## enable apache served files compression
    ## http://developer.yahoo.com/performance/rules.html#gzip

    # Insert filter on all content
    SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
    # Insert filter on selected content types only
    AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml
    text/css text/javascript

    # Netscape 4.x has some problems...
    BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html

    # Netscape 4.06-4.08 have some more problems
    BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip

    # MSIE masquerades as Netscape, but it is fine
    BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html

    # Don't compress images
    SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzipdont-vary

    # Make sure proxies don't deliver the wrong content
    Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary

    </IfModule>

    Copy HTTP Request by Expires Headers

    When a customer visits your website for the first time, the site will load lots of HTTP requests. How to minimize these requests? We will use Expires Headers function to save unnecessary HTTP requests for the next visits. Simply add this code to your .htaccess file:

    <IfModule mod_expires.c>

    ############################################
    ## Add default Expires header
    ##http://developer.yahoo.com/performan...s.html#expires

    ExpiresActive On
    ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"

    </IfModule>

    Reduce the file size of images to be uploaded

    As far as you know, Magento is used for e-commerce website; therefore, all images on the site particular product images are essential. We need eye-catching images, of course, those are sometimes too big to fully load and time-costing.

It will be critically helpful to reduce site’s capacity when you run it.
    We suggest a few feasible tips and directions for this issue. Trust us, it is completely simple and all you need is uploading your images to a system and it will return you re sized ones while the quality is kept. Now you can post similar-quality-shrunk images instead of old stone-sized ones. Below are our tips:

    Picture1
    Turn off unnecessary modules

    There are thousands of Modules available in Magento to be used or shelved. For the medium-sized e-commerce website, it is not always necessary to use all these extensions and modules. You need to list all Modules that your system won’t use and turn them off. It helps to improve the site loading time when unused extensions are disabled.
    Simply go to Admin > System >Configuration> Tab Advanced>Advanced>Disable Modules Output, it shows all available Modules and their status. Select unnecessary modules and disable them.

    And remember to Clear cache before it takes effect.
    Enable Merge CSS and JS

    Magento utilizes a lot of JS and CSS files. Loading each of those files is time-costing, therefore, to minimize the loading time, you can enable Merge function to compress CSS and JS files in one file and it will load at speed of light.

    Select “JavaScript Settings” and change the value of “Merge JavaScript Files” to Yes.
