Many factors can be said to have contributed to the slowness of your website.

It can be said that site ranking, SEO, users’ activities on your site all depends on how fast and active your website is. In this article, you will get to learn the importance of website speed and what to do in order to increase page speed in WordPress website.

WordPress has become one of the major CMS programs around the globe so as such, a lot has been done to increase its effectiveness. If your website is built on this software and you are really in for business, you should bear in mind that website speed is a very important factor for you to reach that climax in your business. Take, for example, e-commerce sites, etc. The moment your clients noticed that your site is slow, they may not trust you fully or rather go to another site that satisfies their needs. The following therefore illustrates what you need to do to increase page speed of WordPress websites.

Website Load Testing: There are certain things we must consider in a site to ascertain for the effectiveness of the site that could increase page speed;
The type of contents
The plugins you use
Whether it is cached or not
And many more

Though to test how a website loads, these online tools will give you a summary of what you need to know about your website before you undergo any other test like the case of a medical field test. The few online testing sites that can help to check your site page speed performance are:

Page Speed Insights ( form Google)

Your front page is always used as a testing page to analyze the whole site so you should take note. Now that you already know the performance of your page speed in WordPress, you need to know why your site is slow so as to know what to do to put things right.

It has been said widely that the speed of your site depends on the server which plays a major role. And also the higher its execution time, the faster and effectiveness the site will be. One cannot ignore the fact that there are some other cases which we ignorantly neglect due to our concentration on the major factor that may not be an issue. Now, other factors that may hinder your site page speed are listed below:

Picking a good web host: two types of hosting plan you may be used to are, the shared hosting/managed WordPress hosting plan and VPS. I will not recommend you to use the shared hosting unless you are a little less concern about your business. There is a lot of web host you can choose from online and you can see them when you search on Google. An example is DomainKing and GoDaddy.


Use/Enable Caching Plugin: Caching is presumably the main technique to utilize on the grounds that it can prompt the most exceptional enhancements. What caching can do is basically spare an HTML duplicate of the site for a given time. This implies that once per day the site would load ordinarily, it would get a server to prepare the code and spit back the outcome as HTML. It would likewise spare the subsequent HTML in memory. When next somebody loads the site, the reserved would stack the HTML from memory, rather than getting the server to prepare it. Try using WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache to get the most appropriate result you desire.


The use of CDN: What is a CDN? A “CDN” (content delivery network) is a system of distributed servers (network) that deliver pages and other Web content to a user, based on the geographic locations of the user, the origin of the webpage and the content delivery server. There are two main reasons to utilize CDNs: they permit to host pictures off-server and they diminish images load time.

Essentially, a CDN, or content delivery network, take all the static records you have on your website (CSS, JavaScript, and pictures, etc.) and gives users a chance to download them as quick as could be allowed by serving the documents on servers as near them as possible. Basically, the CDN you may try for yourself are the; Cloud Flare and MaxCDN which are among the best.

Image optimization/compression: images, as you know, consume most memory space and data. So the need to compress them to a minimum pixel without tampering with the quality of the image. The program you can use to achieve this result is an image compressor called WP-SmushIt which is also a free module to use without losing the quality of your image.
Uninstall Inactive Plugin: plugins you don’t use or you do not update regularly can add up to your web files hereby making it heavier than the usual files that make a website fast. A tool you can use to actually check defaulters (inactive plugins) that might be slowing your website is P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler).

Optimize WordPress Database: WP-Db Manager allows you to upgrade, repair, reinforce and reestablish your database. After much usage of WordPress for some time, your Database may have lots of information you don’t need. Others include Disabling Hotlinking, Turnoff Pingbacks, and Trackbacks, Keep your WordPress website updated.

I hope this information will help maintain or help to increase page speed in WordPress website. And also, help to share this information
