WordPress Speed Optimization
Faster WordPress pages and better Core Web Vitals, with a 90+ PageSpeed guarantee on the key pages in the Standard and Premium packages.
A slow site costs visitors and enquiries. I fix WordPress speed with caching, image optimisation, script cleanup and database tuning, tested on a staging copy before anything goes live. Standard and Premium packages come with a 90+ Google PageSpeed Insights guarantee on the pages we agree in writing, with the conditions explained below.

Who it is for
Is WordPress speed optimization right for you?
For site owners whose WordPress site feels slow or scores poorly.
- Owners who see low PageSpeed or Core Web Vitals scores
- WooCommerce stores where slow pages hurt sales
- Sites that got slower after adding plugins, images or a page builder
- Businesses that want speed fixed without moving to a new host or redesigning
Problems solved
What this fixes
Visitors leave before the page loads
Slow pages lose people, especially on mobile connections. I find what is slowing yours down.
Large images and heavy scripts
Uncompressed images and unused scripts are among the most common causes of slow WordPress sites.
Plugins that fight each other
Overlapping plugins add weight and conflicts. I audit them and keep what is needed.
Fear of breaking the site
Every change is tested on a staging copy first, so your design, forms and checkout keep working.

How the 90+ PageSpeed guarantee works
- Tool: Google PageSpeed Insights.
- Packages: Standard and Premium. The Basic package has a target of 80+ and no guarantee.
- Device: the mobile score, a lab test in PageSpeed Insights.
- Pages: the homepage and the key pages we agree in writing.
- Conditions: hosting and third-party scripts (ads, chat, tracking) outside my work must not be the cause.
- If a page misses 90+, I keep fixing it for free until it reaches 90+.

FAQ
Questions about WordPress speed optimization
Clear answers on cost, timing and what is included, before you commit.
Packages are Basic $149, Standard $249 and Premium $449. Standard and Premium include the 90+ PageSpeed guarantee described above. Agreed pages score 90+ on Google PageSpeed Insights (mobile, lab test) for the homepage and the key pages we agree in writing, as long as hosting and third-party scripts (ads, chat, tracking) outside my work are not the cause. If a page misses, I keep optimizing at no extra cost until it reaches 90+. There is no cash refund.
