After testing your site speed and identifying problems, we assess how to resolve these issues. With our help, your site speed will be optimized in no time.
Caching
Caching improves loading times by storing certain information in the browser, reducing load times for returning visitors. We are proficient with various caching plugins for WordPress and can set them up for you to enhance your site's performance.
Redirects
Redirects can slow down your site as each URL redirection takes time. We help clean up your 301 redirects to ensure your website’s URLs direct visitors to the correct pages efficiently, without compromising site speed.
Hosting
Cheap hosting plans from unreliable servers can be tempting, but they often come at a cost to your site’s performance. We assess your hosting and work with you to ensure your site is running on an efficient server that supports, rather than hinders, your rankings.
Optimizing Images for Site Speed
Large images that aren't optimized can significantly slow down your site, affecting both user experience and your Google rankings. We will evaluate your images to ensure they are properly sized and optimized for faster loading times.
Efficient Plugin Management
While WordPress plugins can enhance your website's functionality, having too many can slow down your site. We help you clean up unnecessary plugins, ensuring you only keep those that improve your site's performance and ranking. Adding plugins can sometimes result in bloated and unnecessary code, negatively impacting your site speed.
Content Delivery Networks (CDN)
Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) improve how your website delivers content by using multiple servers located in different areas. These servers store copies of your site, allowing local visitors to access it more quickly. This distribution method enhances your site's loading times and overall user experience.
HTML & CSS Cleanup
Sometimes plugins add unnecessary code to your website's backend. We clean up these plugins to ensure your site's HTML and CSS aren't bloated, which can negatively impact speed and rankings. Poorly coded plugins often slow down a website, reducing its performance and search engine rankings.
Why Your Site Speed Matters
Site speed is crucial for your Google rankings because it directly affects user experience. Google prioritizes user-friendly websites, and slow loading times can result in penalties. Consumers are also deterred by long loading times, making site speed optimization essential.
UX & UI Impact
Your user interface (UI) directly influences user experience (UX), which in turn affects SEO. According to Think with Google, over half of website visitors will leave if a page takes longer than three seconds to load. Ensuring a fast, responsive UI is crucial for retaining visitors and improving SEO.
Importance of Crawling
Site speed affects how quickly Google can crawl and index your website and its content. Faster loading times make it easier for Google to index your site, improving your chances of ranking higher. We optimize your site speed to ensure efficient crawling and better search engine rankings.
Boosting Conversions
Slow-loading sites deter potential leads from converting. According to Unbounce, nearly 70% of consumers are influenced by site speed when deciding to make a purchase. By optimizing your site speed, we help increase the likelihood of conversions, leading to better business outcomes. Optimize your site speed with our comprehensive services to enhance user experience, improve Google rankings, and drive conversions.
