Wordpress Optimization
 

Hello everyone I would like to offer my services to fellow warrior forum members.

My main line of work focusses on optimizing wordpress blogs and wordpress based sites.

I have worked with some well known bloggers online such as Pat Flynn at smart passive income and Kim Roach a fellow warrior on this forum.

I do this job because quite simply I just love what I do.

You can find out more about my services here on my blog at diywpblog

I also provide a newly launched monthly optimization service for those looking to take the tech out of blogging. Which you can find here.

I look forward to answering your questions and working with you.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Matthew

hey dude.... when you say optimizing wordpress... what exactly do you mean?

Re: Wordpress Optimization
 

Hi Daviz, by optimization I mean the following.

• Optimizing your images
• Add image dimensions where possible
• Optimize the order of styles and scripts
• Defer parsing of javascript where possible. (some scripts are required to load in the head)
• Reduce total page size
• Reduce total number of requests
• Database optimization
• Setup CDN (if the user required or has purchased already)
• Configure caching via the server or by plugin (I prefer via the server)
• Enable and configure Gzip Compression
• Server optimization ( applicable to VPS and Dedicated servers only)

WordPress i generally quite heavy and in terms of optimization for speed and efficiency, lack of maintenance over time can bring your site to a crawl. My job is to tweak and refine wordpress sites to make them more efficient, faster and also advice any of my client with any change they could make to improve their site.

This include advice for server upgrades if their server is not up to the task their site is tasked to do.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

hey dude.

Nice. can you go thru the blog's code/templates and optimize for SEO?

we got a review from an SEO expert and had a lot of issues with our blog that needed to be changed (coding issues etc.).

is that something you can also do?

thanks
