Website takes ages to load

hello this is my new project : Nicerr
when i first try to load the website it sometimes take up to 3 minutes for it to load, but after i managed to load it, if i close the website and open again it will load instantly, its weird, its a free plan, i cant show this on my linkedin because i know it will take ages for it to load, what can be the problem?

Hi,

It sounds like you’ve exactly described the behavior of free instance types: https://render.com/docs/free#free-web-services

Free instance types will spin-down after 15 minutes of inactivity, then will spin back up when the next request is made, and that restart can take some time.

To prevent this behavior, you can upgrade to any paid instance type.
