🚀 WordPress Speed Optimization – Full Guide

1. Use a Lightweight Theme

Choose fast-loading, clean-coded themes like Astra, GeneratePress, or Neve to ensure minimal load time and smooth performance.

2. Install a Caching Plugin

Reduce server load and speed up page loading with caching plugins. Recommended plugins include:

• LiteSpeed Cache – ideal for Hostinger hosting
• WP Rocket (Premium)
• W3 Total Cache

3. Optimize Your Images

Large images slow down your site. Use WebP format and tools like Smush, ShortPixel, or TinyPNG to compress images without losing quality.

4. Use a CDN

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) speed up your site globally by serving content from servers near your visitors. Cloudflare is a popular free option.

5. Remove Unused Plugins & Scripts

Deactivate and delete unnecessary plugins to reduce bloat. Use Asset CleanUp or Plugin Organizer to disable scripts on pages where they aren't needed.

6. Use High-Performance Hosting

Your hosting impacts speed a lot. Choose Hostinger’s WordPress Optimized Hosting with LiteSpeed technology for maximum performance.
