A slow site quietly costs you visitors, rankings and sales. We tune your WordPress site so it loads fast, feels effortless, and gets more out of every click.
Speed is not one trick, it is a stack of them. We work through the things that slow a WordPress site down, one by one, and measure the difference at the end.
We test the site before we start, using Google’s PageSpeed Insights, then keep testing as we work, so we can see how each change affects your particular site. When the job is done, we run it one more time, so the result is something you can see in plain numbers rather than just take our word for.
Google PageSpeed scores from a recently optimised site, out of 100.
Every site is different, and no two are built quite the same, so we work at it incrementally. We tweak, test, refine and repeat until we have the best speed result your site can realistically give.
Images are usually the biggest weight on a page. We compress them with no visible loss in quality.
We set up caching so your pages are served ready-made instead of being rebuilt on every visit.
We strip and compress the CSS and JavaScript so the browser has less to download and process.
We move the scripts, styles and fonts that hold up the first paint, so the page appears sooner.
Images load only as they are needed, so the top of the page is ready while the rest waits its turn.
We serve your site from a global network, so it loads quickly wherever your visitors are.
Bloated, overlapping plugins are a common drag. We review what is installed and clear out the dead weight.
We check your hosting and server setup, since even the best-built site is held back by slow infrastructure.
Speed work is billed by the hour at $150 plus GST. Every site is different, so we give you a realistic estimate after a quick review rather than guess a fixed price. Most jobs land in one of these two.
The high-impact essentials, for most sites.
The full work-up, for larger or stubborn sites.
A fast website is one of the simplest, highest-return improvements you can make. It keeps people on the page, helps you rank, and quietly lifts almost everything else you spend money on.
People have almost no patience for a slow page. Every extra second of load time sends more of them back to the search results, often before they have seen a single thing you offer. On mobile, where connections are patchier, the drop-off is sharper still.
The frustrating part is that these are people who already wanted what you have. They clicked through, they were interested, and a slow page lost them anyway. Speeding the site up wins back visitors you were otherwise paying to attract.
Page speed is a genuine ranking signal, not a myth. Google measures how quickly your pages load and respond through Core Web Vitals, and a slow site competes with one hand tied behind its back.
A faster site gives you a better shot at ranking above competitors who have ignored it, and it helps every other piece of SEO work you do go further. Good content on a slow site never reaches the audience it deserves.
If you run Google Ads, speed hits you in the hip pocket directly. Your landing page experience feeds into your quality score, and a slow page drags that score down, which pushes up what you pay for every click.
Speed the landing pages up and the same budget stretches further: more clicks for the same spend, or the same clicks for less. For anyone advertising regularly, the work can pay for itself in reduced ad costs alone.
A fast, responsive site simply feels more trustworthy. Pages that appear instantly and react the moment you tap them give the impression of a business that has its act together, and that impression carries into whether someone enquires or buys.
A slow, stuttering site does the opposite, planting a seed of doubt at exactly the wrong moment. Removing that friction means more of the visitors you already have go on to take the next step, which is the whole point of the site.
Every website is different, so we start with a proper look before we quote. You see exactly where you stand now, what we recommend, and a clear before-and-after at the end.
We run speed tests and check your hosting, plugins and setup to find exactly what is slowing the site down.
You get a realistic time estimate up front, billed at our hourly rate, with the work tracked transparently.
We work through the fixes one by one, from images and caching to code and server tuning, testing as we go.
We show you the before and after in plain numbers, then check back in with a complimentary review six months on.
We can tune a site as hard as you like, but cheap, crowded or overseas hosting will always hold it back. The server your site lives on sets the ceiling for how fast it can ever be.
If your hosting turns out to be the weak link, we will tell you. Our fast, Sydney-based managed WordPress hosting gives your site the foundation it needs, and you can pair it with a tune-up so the whole thing flies.
We speed up WordPress sites whether we built them or not, starting by understanding what is there before we change a thing.
We test before and after and show you the difference, so the improvement is something you can see, not just take on faith.
If the server is the bottleneck, our managed WordPress hosting in Sydney gives your site a quicker foundation to build on.
We are a Sydney studio, part of the Jimmyweb Group, working with businesses right around the country.
The things businesses usually ask us about speeding up a WordPress site.
Because slow sites lose people, and people are the point. A faster site keeps visitors engaged, helps you rank in search, lifts your ad quality scores, and makes the whole experience feel more trustworthy. It is one of the highest-return improvements you can make.
There is no single switch. We work through a stack of improvements: compressing images, setting up caching, minifying code, handling render-blocking resources, lazy loading, adding a content delivery network, auditing plugins, and tuning the server. Together they make a real difference.
Because every site is different. A clean, simple site might need a couple of hours, while a large, image-heavy one with years of plugins might need a lot more. We charge $150 an hour plus GST, give you a realistic estimate after a quick review, and track our time so you only pay for the work done.
We will talk to you before we go over an estimate, never after. If we find something unexpected, we tell you what it is and what it would take, and you decide how far you want to go.
As fast as it can reasonably be. The gain depends on where your site starts and what is holding it back, so we will not promise a magic number. What we can say is that the before-and-after is usually a clear, noticeable improvement, and we show you the proof.
The Speed Package covers the high-impact essentials that most sites need. The Turbo Package adds the deeper, more involved work, like a content delivery network, render-blocking fixes, server tuning and database clean-up, for larger or stubborn sites that need to be squeezed harder.
Absolutely. The Speed Package is a great starting point, and the work carries over. If you want to push further later, we pick up where we left off with the Turbo work. Nothing is repeated or wasted.
We take a full backup before we start and test carefully as we go, so problems are rare and easy to undo. If anything misbehaves, we put it right. Your site is in safe hands.
A complimentary check-in six months after the work. Sites change, plugins update, and content gets added, so we run the numbers again to make sure your site is still performing the way it should.
Hugely. Hosting is the foundation everything else sits on, and cheap, crowded or overseas servers add delay no amount of tuning can fully fix. We review your hosting as part of the work, and if it is the weak link we can move you to our fast Sydney-based hosting.
Yes. Most of the sites we speed up were built by someone else. We start by understanding how the site is put together, so we can make it faster without breaking anything.
We are a Sydney team, but we speed up WordPress sites for businesses right across Australia. You do not need to be local to work with us.
Send us your website and we will take a look, tell you where it stands, and what it would take to speed it up. No pressure, no jargon, just a straight answer.
