There are so many ways to optimize your website.
- Use flat catalog model
- Minify js and css
- Optimize the images
- Use gzip compression in .htaccess file, etc.
You can use an online tool to analyse your website. For example - https://gtmetrix.com/

Magento 2 is slow when cache is disabled and it is in developer mode. You can do below two steps to make it faster
- Enable cache from admin (System > Cache Management) if disabled.
- Execute command at root of your Magento 2 installation to move it to production mode.
php bin/magento deploy:mode:set production

'php bin/magento deploy:mode:set production' What is this using for? I need this command even though I set it in admin panel? Where do I put this command? Using what tool to enter this command? Mar 31, 2017 at 22:34

This command will set magento 2 to production mode and you can execute it by using terminal if you are using mac or Linux. But if you are using windows then it can be done using cmd.– RavinderApr 1, 2017 at 2:03
