The speed at which your blog loads is critical to attracting more readers to your blog. If your blog takes a long time to load, many readers may leave your blog before they have the chance to read it.

Its up to you. But, have blog loading running like the wind, will affect on your blog traffic. People will start to like your blog, at least, for your blog fast loading. They will get information in short time, and you have more visit because they will not spend all the time to wait your blog load.


How to make blog load faster?
There is no magic to do that. Its just a little tip from me, that can affect your blog load. I hope it will help you, to make your blog load faster.


Themes
When you use free theme, usually it doesn't coded properly. Don't use theme only because its beautiful. Many of free theme contain some extra widget and script that will slow down your blog loading speed. So, if you knew a little (or Pro) of html, you can modify your free theme. If you don't, just use standard theme, or theme that doesn't have many feature (like slideshow, banner and other image everywhere).


Widget
Only use necessary widget on your blog. Remove any extra widget that not too important for your blog. Because the more widget you have, the more blog load you will have. There is a tip form Google

For optimal blog load speed, we recommend using Google/Blogger widgets, JavaScript and links. However, if you need to use third party JavaScript and links, your blog will load much faster if you put all JavaScript at the bottom of your blog. If you have third party JavaScript and links in your sidebar, put them in at the bottom of the sidebar.

Plugin
Only use plugin that you need. Example, you want to add SyntaxHighlighter to your blog, and there is so many javascript files that you must place to your blog (files its different from script). There is so many of that plugin, and choose the plugin that have a fewer files than other plugin. This will help your blog load faster, and you still have your SyntaxHighliter.


Image
Compress your image before you upload it. And don't use image for your blog background or your blog will suffer. Avoid to use image to your blog background. If you have Ads on your blog, choose that will display text only. Don't use too much picture in your post. Maybe two or three is enough to make your post more attractive.


Post
This is what Google said

Your blog's load time can be affected by the number of posts you display on your main page. You can easily edit the number of posts displayed of the main page from the Settings | Formatting tab. You can then select the number of posts you want to display on the main page. We recommend displaying 10 or fewer posts on the main page. 

But I prefer to use only four post per page. And use jump break to every your post. This will help to reduce some time for your blog to load.


CDN Service
A content delivery network or content distribution network (CDN) is a network containing copies of data placed at various nodes of a network. When properly designed and implemented, a CDN can improve access to the data it caches by increasing access bandwidth and redundancy and reducing access latency because its uses the closest server to visitor location.
