Many businesses run slow WordPress sites without knowing what is slowing them down. Start with a free speed audit — then we fix everything so your site loads in an instant.
Website speed and performance optimization: we diagnose and fix slow WordPress sites — images, caching, code, hosting, the database and Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP). Built for businesses whose WordPress site loads slowly and hurts their Google rankings. We start with a free speed audit, then optimize and hand you a before/after report.

Slowness almost never has a single cause. Here are the most common culprits we find in WordPress sites.
Too many plugins
Every plugin adds code and queries. Dozens of plugins slow down every single page load.
Oversized images
Unoptimised, multi-megabyte images are the single most common cause of slowness.
Slow hosting
Cheap shared hosting means long response times and poor performance under load.
No caching
Without caching every visit is generated from scratch instead of served instantly from cache.
Bloated theme
Universal multipurpose themes are packed with unused code and features.
Render-blocking scripts
Render-blocking JS and CSS stop the page from painting until everything has loaded.
Slow TTFB & database
High server response time (TTFB) and an unoptimised database delay every request.
No CDN
Without a content delivery network distant visitors wait longer as files travel from one server.
Core Web Vitals measure the real visitor experience. Green scores strengthen your Google search rankings.
Largest Contentful Paint
How fast the main content loads. Target — under 2.5 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift
Whether elements shift while loading. Target — under 0.1.
Interaction to Next Paint
How quickly the site responds to clicks. Target — under 200 ms.
Core Web Vitals are an official Google ranking factor — good scores help you climb the search results.
It all starts with the free audit — we diagnose first, then optimize.

We convert and compress images to WebP and AVIF — files several times smaller.
Caching & CDN
We set up caching and a content delivery network — fast serving worldwide.
Code & plugins
We remove unnecessary plugins and minify and combine CSS and JS.
TTFB & database
We optimise server response time and clean up and tune the database.
Lazy-loading
We defer loading of off-screen images and video — a faster first paint.
Core Web Vitals
We remove render-blocking resources and bring LCP, CLS and INP into the green zone.
