Want to Improve Your WordPress Blog Speed? Don’t Miss to Read it.

Do you want to know how to make your WordPress Site super fast? If yes, this email is just for you. [We all love faster loading websites](. According to a study, 47% of visitors expect a page to load in under 2 seconds, and 57% of visitors will abandon a page that takes more than 3 seconds to load. Not only that, slow loading times hurt your website sales too as Amazon calculated that a 1 second slowdown of their page loading speed would cost them $1.6 billion in yearly sales.  In a nutshell, with faster websites, you can: - Easily improve your sales - Get higher conversions - Provide ultimate experience to your users - Also increase your search rankings (as Google takes site speed as a ranking factor, it’s been doing it since 2010) So how can you make your site blazing fast? Before diving into the details, you should answer one important question.  How fast does your WordPress website load? Do you know how much time does it take for your site to load? If not, you should find it out now. Fortunately, there are a few tools (which are completely free to use) to help you find out your site’s speed. The tools are: - [GTmetrix]( - [PageSpeed Insights]( by Google - [Pingdom tools]( - [WebPageTest](  For example, you can see our website speed (load time) on Pingdom tools which looks like this: [pingdom test]  As you can see above, it shows you loading time (your site speed, our site loads in under half a second according to Pingdom tools) along with a couple of suggestions to improve your overall website loading times. So there you go. That’s how you can easily find out your site speed. If it is taking more than 2 to 3 seconds to load, you should immediately start optimizing your site for faster performance.  Here are a few practical tips to improve your site speed in 2019: Use WPX hosting We’re using WPX hosting for more than 3 years. It’s expensive when compared to other shared hosting choices like Bluehost, HostGator etc but gives you superior website speeds as it offers cloud based hosting environment. It also offers supreme hosting features like free website migrations, free SSL certificates, super fast customer support, full backups for free, Enterprise-Level DDoS protection, staging area and the list goes on. If you’re interested in using their hosting, you can use our link to get some discount.  [Use this link to get 50% FLAT discount]( on WPX hosting (only for Bloggers Passion readers and offer ends shortly) Make sure to use promo code BloggersPassion (caps matter) as it gives you instant 50% discount on their first month hosting plan.  Use a caching plugin A caching plugin helps you easily minify all the unwanted junk from your website such as minification, clearing cache, minimising server requests and so on. Ultimately it helps you achieve faster page loading times. We are using WPRocket plugin at Bloggers Passion for around a year now and we’re extremely happy with it. It’s a paid plugin though and if you’re searching for free alternatives, we recommend you to give a try to W3 total cache as it is one of the most used caching plugins in the WordPress directory.  Limit your plugins usage One of the beautiful things about using WordPress is that it offers you a plethora of plugins ranging from free to premium. But it can also affect your site speed negatively if you’re using heavy loading plugins (or if you use too many plugins). Limit your plugins to under 10 or 12 (if you’re running a new site) and somewhere around 15 if you are running a decent traffic website. Regularly check for their updates and deactivate any plugin that’s not getting updated frequently.  Use a CDN CDN (Content Delivery Network) delivers your site’s content to your website users more quickly, based on their geographic location. It provides really faster website experience to the users no matter what location they are browsing your site from. So if you are targeting international audience and attracting traffic from all over the world, make sure to use a global CDN. When you’re using a web host like WPX hosting, you get it by default. But for the rest of the people, you can go for a free CDN option like Cloudflare. With Cloudflare, you can easily set the DNS for your domain to point to Cloudflare CDN. You can then use the DNS provided in Cloudflare to point to your hosting account. That's it! In a nutshell, when you use a CDN, your content gets delivered from a datacenter that is relatively close to the website user rather than end users receiving your content from one datacenter no matter where they are in the world (as it provides faster experience).  Loved reading this email?
