If you aren’t familiar with Yahoo’s YSlow and Google’s Page Speed, they are tools that can show you specifically what is slowing your site down, as well as point out some optimizations that you may not be aware of.
These tools often show you items that can be improved, such as image compression, removing comments from code, or using compressed, combined JavaScript and CSS files. Other items may be beyond your access, such as improving cached images and static files. The key is to balance aesthetics, content and speed to enhance your site and improve its usability.
