What influences speed?

Post by mdsojolh444 »

The theme forms the basis for the performance of your WordPress website. When choosing, make sure that the theme is developed and programmed to a high standard. The fastest WordPress themes are characterized by the following features:

Few HTTP requests : Unnecessary HTTP requests increase the server load and therefore the loading process.
Optimal page size : In addition to the code, page size is also influenced by elements such as images and content. The smaller the page size, the faster the page loads.
As little JavaScript and CSS as possible : You can also minimize JavaScript and CSS files later using WordPress plugins, for example with Autoptimize or Fast Velocity Minify .
In addition to the theme, there are many other factors that affect the speed of your website:

Load weight : This is the amount of data that is transferred when the website is loaded. The number and size of images and videos in particular have a major influence on this. In order to reduce the load weight and thus the loading time, heavy data should be compressed. WordPress plugins such as Optimus can help you with this .
Caching : Caching is a good way to reduce loading times and server physician database requests. Caching involves temporarily storing the website data. When the website is accessed again, the data from the cache is accessed directly instead of sending a new request. This means the page loads much faster. The function can be activated using a plugin (e.g. WP Super Cache). Hosters such as Raidboxes also offer caching directly on the server side - making an additional plugin unnecessary.
Plugins : Don't use too many plugins, as these can also have a negative impact on speed. Only install the extensions you really need, make sure they are of good quality and regularly remove those you no longer need.
Hosting : One of the most important factors is WordPress hosting. To ensure that your website performs well, it is best to use a specialized WordPress hosting provider with a fast and reliable server.
