  1. 10Ways to Optimize WordPress Website Performance “Slow and steady wins the race” it’s such a great moral. But in internet speed is everything! The faster you are the better your traffic will be. Everyone is obsessed about speed, and investing tons of money into research and implementation of better load speeds. And WordPress is the best CMS software available today, also has such great ambitions and here are 10 ways to optimize

  2. WordPress performance from a Wordpress perspective. Tip #1: Invest in an Optimized Hosting Wordpress does not have a fixed size, its size changes whenever there is an increase in websites or traffic. Because of that WP can get a little bit slowly, but it is only due to the hosting server incapability. To prevent overloading a server it’s better to opt for shared hosting for start-ups and later on opt smart hosting. WP cloud hosting is also a good choice for an effective functionality and uptime from their website. Tip #2: Optimize Visual Content When you upload a new large file without compressing it, will take a lot of time and will cost you a ridiculous amount of data. The worst part is that it will slow down the page rendering time, effectively slowing down the entire website. For this reason, it is mandatory for users to compress files before uploading them into their WP domains. People with no technical skills can use tools like image optimizer to achieve the same. Tip #3: Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN) CDN is a network of servers all around the globe that will help you to increase your global reach. Wordpress developer developer experts’s

  3. Try using cloudwaysCDN. Tip #4: Minimize Number of HTTP Requests HTTP is basically a set of files required for a browser to download and open your website in a visitor's browser. It obviously depends on your website size and other factors such as modules and code. Which means if you have a large amount of data in your website like plugins it will take a while for the browser to open it. So to avoid slowing down, you should make sure that there no unnecessary stuff in your page and some useless add-ons, try to delete these for better performance. Tip #5: Compress PHP Files If you are a developer you probably know that, WP is made up of code written in CSS and JS. Which can be compressed to decrease the overall size of the packets in site? These are sent to visitor’s browser so that he/she can open it. If the size of packets is small then you can achieve great speeds. You can use the tool ‘Breeze’ for making your work a lot easier. Tip #6: Integrate Caching Plugin

  4. WP cache contains your dynamic posts and static pictures which will be stored and served for visitors as a pre-loaded file decreasing overall load time. You can make use of ‘breeze’ a free WP plugin for doing the same. Tip #7: Use CSS Sprites It goes without saying, if you have a better looking website then you will definitely get more traffic. CSS sprites is such a tool that will allow you to create fantastic designs, it will also decrease your load time. One such tool is Spriteme. Tip #8: Use a Proficient Database Console No, we are not talking about gaming console. It’s a database console that will make your website load free and you check this tool “WP-DBmanager” that will help with the same. You can add as many add-ons as you want when you install a database console. Tip #9: Limit “Post Revision” Functions One thing that we learned in our computer classes is that, to save all our data when we are done. But in the case of WP if you don’t want to save a post revision then don’t save it. It can help

No technical knowledge is needed! At least it’s good to keep some back-ups when you decide to make some changes to your site, or else you might lose something that spent so much time on just by clicking something that you should not click.
