No requests to another country that cause page loading to be blocked

The further away the servers are from the user, the more time it will take for the signal to travel the distance back and forth. This delay is called ping and depends on the distance, the number of hops (the number of routers between the user and the site), as well as the route of network packets.

If you use foreign services such as counters, card APIs, authorization systems, payment systems, CDN services, captchas, etc., then make sure that the connection of these scripts is non-blocking. Otherwise, such services slow down page loading due to high latency (ping) during loading.

Enable the service in the JavaScript function in the ready event.

An example in jQuery:

$(document).ready(function () {
    var script = document.createElement("script");
    script.src = "https://example.com/script.js"; // path to your file
    document.head.appendChild(script);
});

Example in native JavaScript:

window.addEventListener('load', function() {
    var script = document.createElement("script");
    script.src = "https://example.com/script.js"; // path to your file
    document.head.appendChild(script);
});
