The whole category in one page.
THE THREE THINGS THAT PRODUCE MOST OF THE GAIN
- Images: resize, then compress, before uploading
- Caching: enable it, test afterwards
- PHP version: use a current one
Those three fix most slow sites.
THE MEASUREMENT THAT MATTERS
Your own phone, on mobile data, away from wifi.
Not a test from another continent, and not a score.
WHAT TO LOOK AT IN A REPORT
Total page size and the largest files.
Under a megabyte is good.
WHAT TO AUDIT PERIODICALLY
Plugins Third-party scripts The database Bot traffic
WHAT CAUSES REGRESSION
Images uploaded without preparation. Teach anyone editing the site.
FOR SHOPS
The checkout matters most and cannot be cached.
Test a purchase on mobile data regularly.
BEFORE BUYING A LARGER PLAN
Try caching and images. The problem is frequently free to fix.
THE HONEST TARGET
Fast enough on a phone on mobile data. Not a perfect score.
