WordPress Page Speed Optimization (improve SEO), 2022 update
WordPress Page Speed Optimization (improve SEO), 2022 update
WordPress is the most popular content management system (CMS) in the World. It is used by about 25% of all the websites available online. But most of the Wordpress-based websites are not well optimized.
And there's a reason for it to be so popular - it is easy to use and there are lot of plugins and themes that make it easy to customize and upgrade. But in order to have that kind of flexibility we sacrifice speed and loading time. Every plugin install or every image uploaded affects the website performance.
In this course you will learn how to optimize your WordPress site for maximum speed and fast loading. You can start with a website that loads for 15 or 20 seconds, but after you go through all the optimizations steps explained in the videos you will have a website that loads in less than 5 seconds (sometimes less than 3 seconds).
A faster websites leads to better user experience, higher visitor retentions, better conversions and higher ranking in the Google search results. Here are some real life examples and stats that support that thesis:
KissMetrics found that:
- 47% of consumers expect a website to load in 2 seconds or less;
- A 1 second delay in loading decreases customer satisfaction by 16%;
- A 1 second delay in page response can result in a 7% reduction in conversions;
CDNetworks give us other stats:
- 39% of e-retailers claimed they lost money last year due to performance or stability problems;
- Cutting just 3 seconds off load time generates a revenue increase of 7-12%;
- Amazon’s calculated that page load slowdown of just one second could cost it $1.6 billion in sales each year;
- 21% of online shoppers abandoned shopping carts because the process was taking too long;
- Four in 10 Americans give up accessing a mobile shopping site that won’t load in just three seconds;
Even if the speed is so crucial you will still find a lot of web sites which are not optimized. A random tests shows that 90% of the WordPress websites are not optimized and the loading time of each of these sites can be reduced in half.
In the first section of the course you can see how you can test your website and to find if it is optimized and what kind of improvements it needs. Every component that affects the web site speed is explained and optimizations methods are then suggested. You will learn how to optimize the following:
- First byte time;
- Keep-alive enabled;
- Compress transfer;
- Compress images;
- Cache static content;
- Effective use of CDN;
In the course you will see a real life example. All the resources used to optimize the WordPress website are free.
