Breaking the Speed Limit: Faster Websites Win

This document provides 10 tips to speed up a WordPress website. It recommends optimizing code by removing unnecessary elements, compressing files, reducing server calls by combining files, caching content, using content delivery networks (CDNs) to distribute content efficiently, upgrading servers, improving databases, optimizing .htaccess files, and using plugins to block spam. Images and other media should also be optimized, and unnecessary queries reduced. Implementing these tips can help speed up page loading and improve the user experience on WordPress sites.

This document provides tips to make a website 5 times faster in 10 minutes. It recommends updating PHP to the most recent version, enabling opcode caching, increasing PHP's memory limit, enabling HTTPS/HTTP2 support, and installing plugins like Autoptimize, WP Fastest Cache, EWWW Image Optimizer, and Jetpack Lazy Load to optimize assets, cache pages, optimize images, and lazy load images. Implementing these server configuration changes and plugins can significantly improve site performance by reducing processing, HTTP requests, file sizes, and loading times.

RackSpace vs Amazon EC2 stress evaluation of responding to user registration on a Drupal 6 ubercart ecommerce site test using LoadStorm. We have stood up an eCommerce site built with Drupal6 and ubercart and stood it up on two most popular cloud providers. We then built a stress test using LoadStorm and tried to push the sites and servers to the limit. Here are the results of our experiment.

Custom Coded Projects - When picking up a project you have many choices to make. Do you go for a premium theme and already builded plugins or will you write parts yourself. I will discuss what impacts custom building a project can have. I will focus on time, cost and speed to help you out with your decision making with future projects.

This document discusses ways to improve the speed of a website. It identifies several methods: checking loading times; selecting an appropriate hosting provider; optimizing content like images; removing unnecessary plugins; employing caching; using a content delivery network; and optimizing the database. Faster sites boost rankings, conversions and traffic. Regular maintenance is needed to ensure optimal performance over time.

The document summarizes strategies for optimizing local search engine results. It discusses using structured data to provide location and contact information, gathering reviews and testimonials, creating geo-sitemap files, and mobilizing websites. Plugins and tools are recommended for implementing structured data, collecting testimonials, and creating responsive mobile designs. The presentation provides specific techniques for local businesses to improve their search engine visibility and customer interactions.

This document discusses how caching can improve website speed. It begins by explaining how websites load files sequentially and sets a goal of under 2 seconds. It recommends getting a fast web host as the first step, then optimizing images, code minification/concatenation, and lazy loading. There are different types of caches like browser, server, and memcache caches that store content to reduce load times. Common caching plugins like WP Super Cache and W3 Total Cache are recommended, or paying for WP Rocket for e-commerce sites. The key steps are to get a fast host, optimize the site, then cache it to improve performance.

The document discusses strategies for optimizing WordPress performance and scalability as website traffic grows. It recommends optimizing the WordPress configuration, disabling heavy or unnecessary plugins, enabling caching plugins like WP Super Cache, and using a content delivery network to offload assets. As traffic increases, the document suggests moving from shared hosting to virtual private servers or dedicated servers to allow configuration changes. It advises a scale-out approach adding more web servers behind a load balancer and scaling databases for redundancy as needed. The key is optimizing WordPress for performance early and scaling infrastructure ahead of traffic growth.

This document discusses resource prioritization strategies to optimize loading performance. It explains that the browser processes resources sequentially and blocks on certain resource types. It then provides recommendations for developers to inform the browser of dependencies and priorities through techniques like preloading. The document also analyzes HTTP/1.x versus HTTP/2 prioritization and compares performance of loading scripts and fonts with different approaches. It evaluates tools for testing prioritization and discusses why prioritization can fail or appear broken. Finally, it offers suggestions for servers and networks to better support prioritization.

Speeding up a WordPress site involves optimizing images, using a content delivery network (CDN) to improve load times, selecting fast hosting, and implementing caching. Page speed is important for user experience and retention - users leave sites that take over 4 seconds to load. Optimizing images reduces file sizes while maintaining quality. A CDN stores content on globally distributed servers to deliver pages faster. Caching saves page content for quick retrieval to improve load times.

Some practical ways to speed up your WordPress website. Looking at plugins, configurations, do's & don'ts, server software and hardware changes.

This document is the presentation slides for a talk on caching for WordPress sites. It begins with introductions and then discusses the importance of measuring site performance. It explains different types of caching including browser caching, page caching, object caching, bytecode caching, and CDN caching. It highlights tools for measuring performance and common caching plugins. Example results are shown comparing no caching and caching configurations. The presentation emphasizes that caching is one of the easiest ways to improve WordPress performance and various options are available depending on needs and server environment.

The document discusses content delivery networks (CDNs), which provide advantages over typical hosting by distributing content storage across multiple servers located closer to users. This results in faster page load times, less bandwidth usage, and no single point of failure compared to traditional hosting with a single server. The document also provides tutorials and information on setting up CDNs with WordPress as well as listing several popular CDN providers.

The document discusses how deceptive online advertisements are rampant and how ad networks like Yahoo facilitate their spread. It describes how Right Media, which is owned by Yahoo, initially classified ads into detailed categories of deceptive tactics but then reduced these and renamed "deceptiveness" to "ambiguous attributes". The document also provides examples of deceptive ads, such as those promoting get-rich-quick schemes or free items that actually involve recurring subscription charges. It concludes that scams using advertisements can be highly profitable for scammers and that better user empowerment and community management is needed to curb abusive ads.
