Guide to Boost Speed & performance client’s website

The most useful WordPress speed optimization tips to boost WordPress performance and speed up the website, I’ve chosen some tips simple and easy to be fixed, however there are some technical issues need web designer or developer.  

  1. Install a WordPress Caching Plugin, caching can make the WordPress site anywhere from 2x to 5x faster, there are a lot of good WordPress caching plugins available, like WP Rocket or WP Super Cache (free)plugin.
  2. Optimize Images for Speed, before you upload a photo directly from your phone or camera, it’s recommended that you use photo editing software to optimize your images for web, e.g. Adobe Photoshop
  3. Keep your WordPress Site Updated, each update will not only offer new features, but also fix security issues and bugs
  4. Use Excerpts on Homepage and Archives, in order to speed up your loading times for archives pages, you can display excerpts instead of the full content.
  5. Split Comments into Pages, WordPress comes with a built-in solution for that. Simply go to Settings » Discussion and check the box next to the “Break comments into pages” option.
  6. Don’t Upload Videos directly to WordPress, you can directly upload videos to your WordPress site, and it will automatically display them in HTML5  player, but you should NEVER do that! Instead you should use a video hosting service like Youtube, Vimeo, DailyMotion, etc. let them take care of the hard work, they have the bandwidth for it!!
  7. Optimize WordPress database, after using WordPress for a while, your database will have lots of information that you don’t need. For improve the performance, you can optimize your database to get rid of all unnecessary information.
