Speed and Core Web Vitals
Your site feels slow, and you can sense visitors slipping away.
People leave pages that hesitate, and search engines notice. The good news is that slowness almost always has specific causes, and they can be found and fixed.
Does this sound familiar?
- Pages take a long time to appear on a phone.
- Google PageSpeed or Core Web Vitals show red or orange.
- You installed a caching plugin and it barely helped.
- The site was quick once, and has slowed down as it grew.
What I do about it
- Measure what is actually slow, on real pages and not only a score.
- Fix the causes: images, scripts, database, server settings and theme code.
- Tune caching and, where it helps, the server itself.
- Re-test and show you the before and after.

A free call about what you've noticed and which pages matter most.
Step 2

Step 3
Fix
I work through the causes in order of impact, testing as I go.
Step 4
Show the result
You get the before and after numbers, and advice on keeping the site quick.
Plugins I built that help
Hosting matters here. I work with any host, and if you'd like a recommendation, I explain mine on the hosting page.
Questions you might have
Will you promise a perfect score?
I promise to fix what is slow and to show you the measurements. A perfect score isn't always realistic or useful, but real speed gains almost always are.
Do I need to change hosts?
Sometimes speed is a hosting problem. If so, I'll tell you. I work with whatever host you have, or help you move to one that suits you.
What are Core Web Vitals?
They are Google's measures of how fast a page appears, how soon it responds to a tap, and whether it jumps around while loading.
