Why speed matters
Speed is not just a metric – it’s revenue, SEO, and trust.
Every 1-second delay in load time can significantly drop conversions and increase bounce rate. Google openly uses Core Web Vitals and page experience as ranking signals, especially for mobile users.
- Fast sites rank better and are cheaper to advertise through paid campaigns.
- Users stick around, browse more pages, and are more likely to buy or inquire.
- Support teams get fewer “site is slow / not loading” complaints.
- You can scale traffic or product catalogs without your server falling over.

Process
A transparent, engineering-driven optimization workflow
No guessing, no random plugin installs. Every change is tested, measured, and documented so you and your team know exactly what improved and why.
Step 1
Baseline analysis
We collect current metrics from PageSpeed Insights, GTmetrix, and real-user data, plus a review of your hosting, stack, and traffic patterns.
Step 2
Optimization roadmap
You receive a prioritized list of action items grouped by effort and impact: “quick wins”, “medium”, and “advanced” tasks.
Step 3
Implementation & testing
Work is performed in a staging environment where possible, then tested for functionality and performance before going live.
Step 4
Launch & monitoring
We deploy changes, track metrics for 1–2 weeks, and fine-tune if needed. Optionally move to a lightweight maintenance plan.

FAQ
Questions about WordPress speed optimization
-
Can you guarantee a 90+ score on PageSpeed Insights?We aim for 90+ on lab tests where realistically achievable given your hosting, tech stack, and third-party scripts. For very heavy setups (e.g., many ads, complex tracking), we’ll tell you honestly what’s possible and which trade-offs are required.
-
Will optimization break my design or functionality?All changes are tested on staging where possible, then verified on key user flows (checkout, forms, logins, etc.) before going live. If a change risks breaking something, we’ll discuss options first.
-
Do I need to change my hosting provider?Not always. We’ll start by seeing how far we can go with your current host. If we hit hard limits, we’ll suggest better-suited hosting options and handle migration if you choose to move.
-
How is pricing structured?Most optimization work is billed hourly from $15/hr with a minimum of 5 hours. For clearly defined one-time audits, we can also offer fixed-price packages after a quick review of your site.
