WordPress Speed Optimization

Slow WordPress sites lose ranking and revenue. Our speed optimisation service tunes hosting, caching, images, database and JavaScript to squeeze real Core Web Vitals wins — usually taking sites from a 40-something PageSpeed score into the 90s within days.

Why this matters
  • Full Lighthouse & Core Web Vitals audit
  • Image compression, WebP/AVIF and responsive srcsets
  • Full-page + object caching (Redis or Memcached)
  • Critical CSS, lazy-loading and JavaScript deferral
  • Database, autoloaded options and cron cleanup

Frequently asked questions

  • Most sites we optimise move from a Lighthouse mobile score of 30–60 into the 85–95 range within two weeks, without changing hosting.

  • Often no. If your host is genuinely underpowered we'll say so, but most speed problems live in the theme, plugins and un-optimised assets.
