Great project, have my $12.

FYI - the website takes a very long time to load in Australia, I would suggest using a CDN to improve international load times.

Thank you so much! Your support means a lot :)

We've tried to optimise load times but we will try to improve them further.

good to know, we're on cloudflare, and do have caching in place. were there any pages in particular that were slow?

Sorry only just saw this, it was the front / landing page. It seemed to be very sluggish, especially if you are already using cloudflare, unfortunately Australia's internet is atrociously slow compared to NZ's (oh how I miss it!) so it's very noticeable if a page is even slower than usual. Perhaps make a free NewRelic account and have a look to see what you can easily target as low hanging fruit (long db queries etc...)
