Why Is My WordPress Site So Slow (and Tricks to Fix It)
If your website is turtling - and not in the good ninja turtle way, but in the slow-crossing-the-highway way - everyone's noticing and cringing.
Here's the deal: while you're sitting there wondering why your site is loading at turtle speed, your competitors' sites are loading in milliseconds and stealing your sales. That sucks.
But figuring out what’s wrong can feel like rocket science.
Tyler, Rebecca and Monica just did a deep dive into the 8 most common things that slow down WordPress sites - plus how we fix them.
As you’d expect, we did get a little nerdy, but we translate the tech speak and label everything by skill level - Beginner, Intermediate, or 'Call a Professional’…and we color-coded everything in the blog post, so you're gonna be fine!
What we cover:
Why Monica’s week-long optimization marathon failed (spoiler: it wasn't the website)
How too many plugins are secretly slowing your site down
Why your cheap hosting might be the real culprit
How CloudFlare uses lava lamps for security (yes, really)
Identifying the "digital freeloaders" slowing down your site
Tyler's love/hate relationship with caching (it's complicated)
And friend, if you hit the halfway point and realize you'd rather be doing literally anything else with your time - even helping actual three-legged turtles cross actual highways - that's what we're here for.
