  1. 5 Easy Ways To Speed Up Your WordPress Website Today we talk about how important site speed is to the success of your blog or website. Especially for beginners, here I’m going to share with you 5 simple ways, you can speed up your WordPress site. Even if you aren’t tech savvy or WordPress developer expert. But first we should know: Why WordPress Site Speed Matters? When a visitor come on your site for the first time, you only have a few seconds to capture their attention to convince them to hang around. If your website page takes too much time to load, most people are gone, lost before you even had a chance. Do you know that, Google now includes site speed in its ranking algorithm. That means that your site’s speed effects SEO, so if your site is slow, you’re now losing visitors from impatience and reduced rankings in search engines.

  2. So Let discuss how you can fix that. 1. Hosting Your web hosting is one of the major factor that influences the speed of a website is the hosting of your WordPress website. You can host your new website on a shared hosting provider that offers "unlimited" bandwidth, space, emails, domains and more. But the point that we usually miss out on website speed is, that shared hosting environment fail to deliver good loading time on peak traffic hours, and most fail to give 99 percent uptime in any given month. Shared hosting tends to deliver a poorer performance because you are sharing the same server space with countless other websites, and there is no telling how much resources others are using. Plus, you don’t know exactly how well the servers are optimized. Before starting to take any actions, it’s recommended to ask your managed WordPress hosting provider for their product and compatibility with WordPress. They can give you some tips and ideas on how to make your WordPress site faster. This will assist you to spend less time in optimizing your WordPress site speed efficiently. 2. Images Images are used to break up paragraphs and keep your blog posts looking interesting. On the other hand images are also the major contributors to size increment of a given webpage. By optimizing your images you can give your site speed a boost. When uploading images, stick to PNG and/or JPG format. Avoid TIFF and BMP, which take much longer to load. If you want to manually optimize the images using Chrome PageSpeed Insights extension or Photoshop or any other tools, the process will take a long time. Fortunately, there are plugins available for image optimization. I recommend using this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/imagify/ it’s quite easy to optimize your images. 3. Use Clean And Minimal Homepage Design Your homepage is one of the most important pages on your website because most visitors will land here.

  3. You should select Wordpress Theme with very clear and minimal homepage or you can hire a professional Wordpress website design company, who can design a website with clear and minimal homepage according to business needs. Too many unwanted features are not only distracting readers, but they also increase your page load speed. Practically you don’t need many elements to have an effective homepage. 4. Deactivate Unwanted Plugins The more plugins you installed, they can also mess with your site speed. Lots of pluigns takes lot of action behind the scene. By keeping unwanted plugins on your WordPress websites, you will add a tremendous amount of junk to your web files. It also leads to increase the size of your backup and put an overwhelming amount of load on your server resources while backup files are being generated. It is better to get rid of the plugins that you don’t use, and also look for alternate methods to use third-party services for automating or scheduling tasks (like sharing of your latest posts to social media). Only update one plugin at a time. They are usually very fast to update and updating a bunch all at once can cause problems. 5. Use An Effective Caching Plugin While having too many plugins can be problematic, having the right ones can make your site faster! Installing a caching plugin can drastically improve page loads time, greatly improve your search engine result page ranking and overall page performance. WP Total Cache is often quite highly recommended for this. It includes all of the features you need and is extremely easy to install and use. The biggest advantage of lowering your website’s loading time is that it will help tremendously in improving the experience of your visitors. We hope this blog helped you know how you can improve your Wordpress website speed and performance.

  4. Go ahead and try out these simple and easy techniques. Make sure to test your website speed before and after implementing these best practices. Definitely you will find a boost in your website performance.
