A faster site with a 90+ score, and a before/after report
On a slow site, visitors leave before they see anything, and Google counts that delay in rankings. We optimize layer by layer, from server and cache to images and code, to bring load time under 2 seconds.

Nothing changes on the site before it is measured. And it gets measured again at the end.

- AuditThe site is measured with the Lighthouse engine to find where the time actually goes.
- PrioritiseOut of the eight layers, only the ones that move the needle on this site get picked.
- ImplementServer, cache, images, CSS, JavaScript and fonts. Without changing how the site looks or behaves.
- Before and afterA comparative PageSpeed report plus a maintenance guide, so the speed does not drift back down.
Speed has a capacity ceiling on weak hosting. If TTFB is the bottleneck, the hosting infrastructure has to change first, and that constraint is stated before the contract, not three months in.
Test your site with Google's Lighthouse engine
Enter your URL and we'll measure speed and Core Web Vitals with the same engine Google uses. A full analysis takes 20 to 60 seconds.
If Google's servers are busy, our own analysis engine takes over.
The three metrics Google measures speed by
Since 2021, these three metrics have been part of Google's ranking.
INP, responsiveness
Target: under 200ms. Usual cause: heavy JavaScript and third-party scripts.
CLS, layout stability
Target: under 0.1. Usual cause: images without set dimensions and late-loading fonts.
The optimization layers
Depending on the audit, we work on a mix of these layers, without changing how your site looks or works:
Server and cache
Web server tuning, PHP version and server-side caching, plus a move to stronger hosting if needed.
Images
WebP/AVIF conversion, lossless compression and proper lazy loading; usually the biggest win.
CSS and JavaScript
We remove unused code, minify the rest and inline critical CSS so pages render without waiting.
Database
We clean bloated tables and index slow queries on WordPress sites.
Speed optimization pricing
The price depends on the type of site and how deep the optimization goes. If the site was not built properly from the start, part of the work goes into fixing that base, and we tell you this before we begin.
Prices are in US dollars and don't move with exchange rates, so there's no need to call for the "real" price.

A 90+ PageSpeed score
On a slow site the visitor leaves before seeing anything, and Google counts that delay in ranking. We optimise layer by layer, from server and cache to images and code.
A before-and-after report
We measure with the Lighthouse engine before any change, and again at the end. You also get a comparative PageSpeed report and a maintenance guide so speed does not slip again.
Prioritising from eight layers
Of the eight layers we choose only those that matter for this site, not all of them.
No change to look or function
We optimise the server, cache, images, CSS, JavaScript and fonts without changing how the site looks or works.
Honesty about hosting
On weak hosting, speed has a ceiling. If TTFB is the bottleneck, the infrastructure has to change first, and we say so before the contract, not after three months.
A live speed test
Type your site address and we measure speed and Core Web Vitals with the same engine Google uses. The analysis takes 20 to 60 seconds.
Innovative solutions for every speed layer
Google's three metrics and four optimisation layers.
Tap any solution to see exactly what it includes.
LCP: main-content speed
Target under 2.5 seconds.
- Usual culprit: heavy images
- And a slow server
- Part of Google ranking since 2021
INP: responsiveness
Target under 200 ms.
- Usual culprit: heavy JavaScript
- And external scripts
- Mobile and desktop measurement
CLS: layout stability
Target under 0.1.
- Usual culprit: images without set size
- And late-loading fonts
- One of Google's three metrics
Server and cache
Web-server tuning, the PHP version and server-side cache.
- A move to stronger hosting if needed
- The PHP version
- Server-side cache
Images
Usually the biggest gain comes from this layer.
- Converting to WebP/AVIF
- Compression without quality loss
- Proper lazy loading
CSS, JavaScript and database
Removing unused code and Critical CSS, plus database cleanup for WordPress.
- Removing unused code
- Minification and Critical CSS
- Indexing slow queries
Six steps of a standard speed project
We set the web.dev and Lighthouse yardsticks beside the pages of two optimisation tools and lined our work up against each step.
1
Measure first
Lighthouse treats the score as a weighted average of several metrics; 90 to 100 is green and good.
With us We measure with the Lighthouse engine before any change and again afterwards.
2
LCP: how fast main content shows
web.dev: up to 2.5 seconds is good, at the 75th percentile of visitors.
With us Target: under 2.5 seconds. Usual culprits: heavy images and a slow server.
3
INP: responsiveness
web.dev: up to 200 ms is good and over 500 poor; INP replaced FID and measures all interactions.
With us Target: under 200 ms. Usual culprits: heavy JavaScript and external scripts.
4
CLS: layout stability
web.dev: up to 0.1 is good and over 0.25 poor.
With us Target: under 0.1. Usual culprits: images without dimensions and late-loading fonts.
5
Optimisation layers
WP Rocket names caching, lazy loading, critical CSS, JavaScript delay and database cleanup; NitroPack images, fonts and code.
With us From eight layers we pick those that matter for this site, with no change to look or function.
6
The host ceiling
web.dev: TTFB up to 0.8 s is good; site-side tuning hits infrastructure past a point.
With us If TTFB is the bottleneck, the host must change first and we say so before any contract.

What we don't do
We don't remove things blindly
We test every change on a staging copy first and move it to your live site only once forms and checkout work.
We don't guarantee 90+ on every site
It is achievable on most corporate and WordPress sites. On large stores with heavy scripts, the realistic goal is passing all three Core Web Vitals, not necessarily the number 90.
Speed optimization FAQ
Clear answers to common questions.
How long does speed optimization take?
Usually 3 to 7 working days. Your site stays live the whole time, because we apply changes on a staging copy first.
How much does speed affect SEO?
Directly: Core Web Vitals are part of Google's ranking algorithm. Speed is a prerequisite for any serious SEO project.
Which caching plugin is recommended?
A plugin is only one part, and the right one depends on your host and site. Images, fonts, third-party scripts and the database also need hands-on work.
How do I know it is really faster?
With a before/after PageSpeed Insights report, plus the tool above, which you can rerun at any time.
