WordPress performance

WordPress performance optimization that cuts load time and hosting bills

Plugin piles, page builders, and a cPanel box you outgrew are the usual tax. We speed the theme you have, or we move the public site off a paid WordPress host when that is cheaper.

The WordPress performance audit is free. Typical website hosting is $150 to $500 a year. That is their invoice. When the public site does not need that host, you save up to $500 a year.

You save

Up to $500/year

Every year the public site no longer needs that host.

Why speed is worth it

Not just a cheaper host. More of the traffic you already have.

A WordPress page that paints in 7 seconds does not get a form fill. Speed is how the traffic you already buy, rank for, and email actually converts.

trending_up

Better conversion rates

A few extra seconds on mobile is enough for a form, demo, or add-to-cart to never happen. Faster LCP and a stable layout give the offer a chance to be read and clicked.

trending_down

Lower bounce rates

If the first screen takes 6 to 8 seconds, most mobile visits never become a session you can remarket. Cut that wait and you keep more of the traffic you already paid for.

touch_app

More engagement

Time on page, scroll depth, and second-page views rise when the UI is usable in the first two seconds. People who can tap, tap.

ads_click

Ads you already buy work harder

Google Ads and Meta charge the click either way. A faster landing URL means more of that click can convert instead of bouncing back to the SERP or the feed.

search

Search keeps the ranking you paid for

Core Web Vitals are ranking inputs. A stable, fast page is easier to crawl, easier to index, and less likely to lose the click after it ranks.

savings

Plus the yearly hosting cut

Typical website hosting is $150 to $500 a year. When the public site is pages plus a form, origin can go to $0. Save up to $500 a year on top of the conversion work.

Keep more of the clicks you buy

Paid sessions stop dying on a blank first paint.

More forms and carts complete

The offer is on screen while intent is still there.

People stay long enough to read

Scroll and next-page views instead of an instant back.

Proof you can screenshot

Lab scores on the same URLs. Bounce and conversions you already track in GA4.

What slows WordPress

The usual drag on WordPress sites

speed

Page builders emitting huge CSS and unused sections on every URL.

image

Image plugins fighting each other, plus original PNG/JPEG still in the library.

javascript

Render-blocking scripts from chat, sliders, and three SEO plugins.

cloud_off

Cheap shared hosting with 200 ms plus PHP time before HTML even starts.

How we help

WordPress speed work we actually do

1

Audit plugins and drop the ones that only add scripts.

2

WebP/AVIF, real dimensions, preload the LCP image, subset fonts.

3

Critical CSS, defer non-critical JS, delay tags that are not the first paint.

4

Cache headers and a CDN in front. LiteSpeed or Nginx when the host allows it.

WordPress specifics

Built for this platform, not a generic speed plugin

Page builders

Elementor, Divi, and WPBakery dump CSS for widgets you are not using. We cut the emit, not the brand, unless the builder is the ceiling and you agree to change it.

Plugin pile

One SEO plugin. One cache path. One image pipeline. Chat and heatmaps after idle. You approve removals. Woo and forms stay.

WooCommerce

Catalog can cache. Cart and checkout stay on WordPress. We do not move payments to Pages.

When origin goes to $0

Brochure plus a form does not need PHP on the live URL. Public HTML can live on Pages. wp-admin can stay small. Mail stays until you cancel.

How a job runs

Four steps. Faster pages, more of the clicks you already pay for.

01

Free audit

Send the URL. In about 48 hours you get lab scores, bounce risk on the URLs ads hit, what you pay the host, and what to cut. $0.

02

Fix in staging

Images, scripts, cache, and the cheap cuts first. You preview. Nothing is live until you say so.

03

Prove it

Mobile and desktop PageSpeed on the same URLs. Then you compare bounce and conversions in the analytics you already have.

04

Cut the yearly bill

If the public site is pages plus a form, live-site origin can go to $0. Save up to $500 a year. Mail stays until you cancel.

Does speed actually lift conversions and cut bounce?expand_more
Speed does not rewrite a weak offer. It stops the offer from dying in the first seconds. Faster LCP and lower TBT usually mean lower bounce and more form, call, or cart events on the same traffic. We show lab scores. You watch bounce and conversions in GA4. We do not invent a lift percentage.
