Fast hosting for Wordpress to get good SEO results
- SEO |
I am trying to improve my website's speed in order to get good SEO results and favourable quality scores when I run an Adwords campaign for this site in the future.
It is a Wordpress site using Avada theme (resource heavy I know). I have been using WP Rocket caching plugin and this gives me the best results. I am currently not using a CDN. I tried the paid version of Cloudflare CDN and this actually decreased my sites performance!
I have achieved a Google insights pagespeed score of 89 for desktop and 71 for mobile. Pingdom tools tends to give me around 82.
I have achieved this on a shared hosting plan with Hostgator.
I recently tried to better my speed scores and upgraded to Hostgators Wordpress Optimized business plan. However my speed scores have actually decreased. I get closer to what I had on the shared plan when I enable Wordpress Rocket (however I have been told that I'm not supposed to be running that plugin as it isn't compatible with their Varnish caching).
I have read about Traffic Planet Hosting and WP Engine hosting. They are all expensive and migrating sites is a nightmare (my current sites still have problems after the Hostgator migration that I am trying to sort out).
Are there any recommendations or advice that fellow Warriors can give to help me get some good and fast Wordpress hosting for my sites? I'm interested in things people have actually tried that are successful speed wise (not just hearsay).
Or are my current Google pagespeed insights scores "as good as it gets" and I should just be happy and move on?
It might help to note that one of my sites only receives a small amount of traffic (local business site) and my new site doesn't yet have a lot of traffic as it is new but I intend it to eventually get 2000-4000 unique visitors a month.
When I get more visitors will the Wordpress optimized hosting be more of a factor in site performance?
