Here’s a few websites to use to test the speed of your website:

GOOGLE PAGESPEED

The PageSpeed family of tools is designed to help you optimize the performance of your website. PageSpeed Insights products will help you identify performance best practices that can be applied to your site, and PageSpeed optimization tools can help you automate the process.
