Site speed help

[Melanie]

Hi, I am getting a really low site speed score for Leverage browser caching, Enable compression, Optimize images and Serve scaled images. Is there a plugin that takes care of all of these things? I don’t have any CND or image optimisation plugins. Thanks

Hi there,

Using a plugin like Autoptimize is a good first step: https://generatepress.com/fastest-wordpress-theme/

As for your images, you’ll want to:

1. Run them through some sort of optimization. A service like this can be helpful: https://imagecompressor.com/

2. Make sure the image size isn’t way larger than what it’s displaying at. For example, if an image is within a 500px wide area, the image should be 500-1000px wide (no larger).

Let me know if you need more info 🙂
