Website Speed From 52 to 92 In 5 Freakin Minutes!

Initial Stats

The initial website performance score for Mobile and Desktop was 52 and 81 respectively (checked with PageSpeed Insights).

We needed a quick fix for this issue, here’s what we did.

The Real Game

  1. Firstly, we minified CSS and JS using WP Rocket Plugin. Minification speeds up the loading of a webpage, helping improve the overall website experience.
  1. Secondly, we disabled WordPress Dashicons and Feed URLs. This also helped our website to load faster.
  1. Enabled Script Manager using the Perfmatters Plugin and disabled some scripts from the Home Page.
  1. Enabled Lazy Loading and excluded the first 4 images from being lazy loaded – so it doesn’t break the design in the first contact.
  1. We implemented a JavaScript execution delay of 7 seconds to speed up the website.
  1. Lastly, we enabled the Preload cache.

Outro

All of the above steps took just 5 minutes, and the website’s performance score is now 92 on Mobile and 99 on Desktop.
