WordPress Speed Optimization
Slow WordPress site? I take it from 5-second loads to sub-2 — green Core Web Vitals, 90+ PageSpeed scores and a clear before-and-after report. Fixed price, results in days.
What I Optimize
Every WordPress speed project covers these core areas. Each one is addressed individually for your site.
Core Web Vitals Audit
Comprehensive analysis of LCP, INP, and CLS with actionable recommendations.
Image Optimization (WebP/AVIF)
Convert and compress images to next-gen formats without visible quality loss.
Caching and CDN Setup
Browser, page, and object caching plus CDN configuration for global speed.
Plugin Bloat Audit
Identify and remove slow, redundant, or conflicting plugins dragging down performance.
Database Optimization
Clean post revisions, transients, and orphaned data for faster queries.
Server-Side Tuning
PHP version, OPcache, GZIP/Brotli, HTTP/2 and hosting-level optimizations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about WordPress speed optimization.
How fast can you make my site?
Most sites reach 90+ PageSpeed and sub-2-second LCP after optimization. Results depend on hosting and site complexity, but I guarantee measurable improvement with a before-and-after report.
What causes WordPress slowness?
The usual suspects: unoptimized images, too many plugins, no caching, bloated themes, slow hosting, and render-blocking scripts. I audit all of these.
Do you use caching plugins?
Yes — I configure LiteSpeed Cache, WP Super Cache, or W3 Total Cache depending on your hosting stack, plus server-level caching when available.
Will optimization break my site?
No. I work on staging first, test thoroughly, and keep full backups. You approve changes before anything goes live.
How long does it take?
A Speed Audit is delivered in 2-3 business days. Full Optimization typically takes 5-7 business days depending on site size.
How much does speed optimization cost?
Speed Audits start at $299, Full Optimization at $599, and Enterprise/WooCommerce at $999. Every project gets a fixed quote upfront.
Do you optimize WooCommerce?
Yes. WooCommerce sites have unique bottlenecks — product image galleries, cart fragments, checkout scripts. I handle all of it.
What about managed hosting?
I work with any host — shared, VPS, managed (Kinsta, WP Engine, Cloudways), or dedicated. Hosting-specific optimizations are included.
