WordPress Web Performance | WordPress Tutor | WP Rocket | WP Expert

I am an experienced WordPress professional of more than 15 years. I specialize in WordPress page speed optimization, having spent 11 years with WP Rocket, providing technical support to customers and optimizing WordPress sites. While I believe in using caching and optimization plugins, I believe they should be the final step in the process. Underlying issues and improvements should be addressed first, to get the best possible results. When I optimize your site I will - Conduct a frontend audit using tools like PageSpeed, DebugBear and GTMetrix to establish the current performance levels. - Check for underlying issues and improvements that could be made - Conduct a backend audit - Create an optimization plan - Work on your staging site first to avoid any disruption to your live site. - If content changes would be advantageous, these will be discussed with you for approval or otherwise. - Manual fixes will be applied first. - Finally any needed optimization plugins will be used. This could include caching plugins (for example, WP Rocket or Litespeed), optimization plugins like PerfMatters, image optimizers like Imagify, database cleaners etc. - If you already have optimization plugins installed that you want to continue using, I will work with those. - I will make sure everything is compatible with your server cache and CDN if you use them. - If needed, I’ll get Cloudflare or your CDN of choice activated for you. - I’ll test the site with optimizations applied to make sure nothing is broken. - After your confirmation, the changes and optimizations will be applied to the live site. - I’ll provide a final report which explains everything that was done and provides before/after results, and recommendations for moving forward. == In addition to speed optimization, I also specialize in technical support and technical writing. I’m able to write clear documentation and tutorials, tailored to the intended audience from beginners to developers. I have expertise in: • Providing technical customer support for WordPress plugins, with 11 years at WP Rocket • Web performance for WordPress sites, including configuring caching plugins like WP Rocket, and auditing sites for performance issues. • Providing 1/1 and group WordPress training • Writing technical documentation for WordPress plugins, and internal documentation for technical teams including debugging/troubleshooting guide, feature descriptions, UX writing • Writing WordPress tutorials • Building and maintaining WordPress sites Some of the ways I can help you: • Write technical documentation or how-to blog articles and tutorials tailored to your audience’s needs and technical understanding • Improve your site’s PageSpeed scores • Configure optimization plugins like WP Rocket to improve performance, without breaking your site • Troubleshoot caching conflicts and performance issues • Help you understand the why behind your site’s performance so you can maintain better speed going forward • 1 on 1 training for WordPress, tailored to your specific needs and questions • WordPress site maintenance - backup, updates, content changes, design tweaks, feature implementation etc. • Troubleshooting issues on your WordPress site I have experience with many WordPress plugins, themes, tools and hosts.
