We’ve been fixing slow WordPress sites since 2016
Site speed is what we do all day. Over the last decade we’ve optimized more than 5,000 WordPress sites, from small local business sites to high traffic WooCommerce stores, membership sites and publishers doing millions of pageviews a month.
That volume means there’s almost no theme, plugin stack, host or odd edge case we haven’t seen. Whatever is making your site slow, we’ve most likely diagnosed and fixed the same problem many times already.
Speed optimization is more than installing a plugin
Most developers and agencies install a caching plugin and stop there, without finding the root cause of the problem. Sometimes the site improves a little. Just as often it goes backwards.
We diagnose first. We work out exactly why your site is slow, whether that’s the server, database, theme, plugins, third party scripts or a mix, then fix the things that actually move the needle, in the right order.
What we can help you fix
- Failing Core Web Vitals. LCP, INP and CLS issues that are holding back your rankings.
- Slow server response (TTFB). Hosting, PHP and database problems that no front end plugin can fix.
- A slow WordPress backend. When wp-admin is painful to use, editing content and processing orders costs your team time every day.
- Slow WooCommerce stores. Cart, checkout and account pages can’t be page cached and need a different approach. See our WooCommerce speed optimization service.
- Plugin bloat and page builder overhead. Untangling heavy themes and 50+ plugin stacks without breaking the site.
- Database problems. Slow queries, autoload bloat and table overhead that build up over years.
- Caching and CDN set up properly. Including Cloudflare implementation and migration.
- Low PageSpeed Insights and Lighthouse scores. More importantly, the real world speed problems behind them.
Common situations we help with
- Your rankings dropped and Search Console shows failing Core Web Vitals.
- Your ad costs keep climbing because slow landing pages hurt conversions and quality scores.
- Your developer or agency has tried everything and the site is still slow.
- Your host blames your plugins, your developer blames the host, and nothing gets fixed.
- The site is fast for visitors but painfully slow for logged-in users and admins.
- A redesign or migration made the site slower than before.
How we work
For most site owners our Site Speed Audit & Consult service is the best starting point. We audit the whole site and write a detailed action plan for the problems the audit finds. You can implement the plan with your own team, or we can do it for you.
On all our speed work we use our own analytics tool, Vital Signs Tracker, which records the speed of every real visit to your site. We can see how logged-in and logged-out users experience the site and how key pages perform in the real world, then prove the improvement with real user data, not just lab tests.
