Checking Your Speed

Test your website speed using Google PageSpeed Insights
Identify how long it takes for the largest part of your page to load
Make sure your site doesn't jump around while it's loading
Check how quickly your site responds when someone clicks a button

Hosting & Foundation

Switch to a high-quality, dedicated WordPress host
Make sure your server is running a recent version of PHP
Turn on server-level caching to speed up data delivery
Ensure your server is physically located near your main customers

Image Optimization

Resize large images before uploading them to WordPress
Use modern image formats like WebP to reduce file sizes
Compress your images using tools like ShortPixel or Imagify
Turn on 'lazy loading' so images only load when users scroll down to see them

Cleaning Up Plugins

Review your active plugins and delete anything you don't use
Replace heavy plugins with lighter, faster alternatives
Prevent shopping cart scripts from loading on non-shop pages
Keep all your plugins and themes updated to their latest versions

Delivery & Display

Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN) like Cloudflare
Host your fonts locally instead of relying on external services
Minify your CSS and JavaScript files to make them smaller
Cache your website pages so they serve instantly to returning visitors
