Regarding the inclusion of resources in the page head, I've found the most suitable solution to (sadly) be modifying the core files to move these resources to the end of the body. I'm currently in the process of working on upgrading our site to v5, and am building a new theme for our site in the process. I've found that while most things can be accomplished within the theme alone, some issues require modifications to "core" files (those outside the theme directory).

Hopefully this is something the development team has on their agenda, as it would certainly be good practice to load resources in the proper location on the page. In the meantime, I'd suggest you address the issues on a case by case basis. My approach has been to use Sublime Text's project-wide search functionality to find the location within the code where each of these resources is being included, and then to make the necessary adjustments to move them to the correct location.

Regarding the 301/302 redirects, I'm not sure I understand exactly what you mean. When are you encountering this 302 redirect?]]> Mon, 13 Apr 2015 04:08:09 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/google-developers-pagespeed-is-not-good_topic5985_post22413.html#22413 <![CDATA[Google Developers PageSpeed is Not Good : We were at over 3 thousand pages...]]> https://forum.productcart.com/google-developers-pagespeed-is-not-good_topic5985_post22360.html#22360 Author: THORDUDE

Wewere at over 3 thousand pages crawled daily down to 515 with the roll-out ofV5.

Chrome add-on PageSpeed from Google Development team and their Auditstates that if a page cannot have the above the fold content delivered to userwithin a second then the page is less likely to be crawled and indexed. Makes sense why are results are now low.  Before you state that I shouldoptimize my images from home page, note that has been done, however every pagefrom product cart still results in these bottlenecks from including resourcesin the head tag.  Regardless of the content on the page, without anyimages the errors still exist.  This ultimately brings the user a badexperience which is Google's new term for getting to the top requirement.

Oneof their issues is with the 302 redirect to the service.asp page, giving the empty cart message comment from the msg.asp page.  This event now createsa new bottle-neck/stall from the angular JavaScript.  They recommend a301, if any, especially on the first page their bot crawls.

Hopefullythis is something that will be looked into since Google is the drivingforce for getting our customers, if not from our two 150 page catalogs we sendout every year.  If you inspect element anywhere within Chrome click on the Network tab and refresh.  Comment on your DOM time and Render time below.  Run the audit to see where you stand as well.  If you see results like these then maybe something has to be done.
