What performance problems occur most frequently with WordPress?
In short and in plain language
WordPress sites often get slow for the same reasons. Many plugins load their files on every page. They do this even where nobody needs them.
On top of that come large images and a missing cache. Old software, heavy page builders and a full database slow things down too.
We load only what a page needs. We set up the cache well and clean up the database. Your features stay in place.
Our analysis shows what helps most on your site.
WordPress sites usually suffer from a recurring pattern. The most common brakes are: too many active plugins, each loading their own CSS and JavaScript files on every page even where they are not needed, uncompressed and unscaled images, missing or misconfigured caching plugins, outdated PHP versions, and bloated page builders generating hundreds of kilobytes of extra HTML and CSS. On top of that come databases grown over years, full of orphaned metadata, transients and post revisions.
In a typical WordPress project, we considerably reduce the number of HTTP requests and the total page size without sacrificing functionality. The keys are selective asset loading, a cleanly configured server cache and a tidied-up database. Which measures have the greatest effect on your site is revealed by the performance analysis.
