Common Reasons for a Slow Site<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several possible reasons for a site to show slow performance, and we are going to share exactly how to speed up your WordPress site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sub-heading mb-1 wp-block-list\"><li>Choose performance optimized web hosting.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, you definitely want a host that offers PHP 7+. PHP 7+ offers massive performance improvements over the old version of PHP 5. We recommend using&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.a2hosting.com\/refer\/98595\">A2 Hosting<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<strong>Blue Host<\/strong>&nbsp;for all your hosting needs..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sub-heading mb-1 wp-block-list\"><li>Use Content Delivery Network(CDN)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>CDNs(Content Delivery Network) are great to reduce TTFB(theoretically). By offloading bandwidth to their data centers, you\u2019re lightening the load on your server which should improve its TTFB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sub-heading mb-1 wp-block-list\"><li>Clean up your database<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>A thorough database cleanup can help reduce TTFB in WordPress. You can clean database using a WordPress plugin such as<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-optimize\"> WP-Optimize<\/a>. &nbsp;WP-Optimize lets you go through your actual plugin tables and deletes tables left behind by old plugins you previously deleted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"alert alert-warning alert-light\">*Note: Please backup your database before doing this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sub-heading mb-1 wp-block-list\"><li>Delete unused Themes &amp; Plugins<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have many installed and activated plugins and themes that are not actually used, they can increase your TTFB.  Please remove themes and plugins that you are not using.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sub-heading mb-1 wp-block-list\"><li>Configure Solid Cache plugin<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Using proper cache plugins can help you and your site speed up.  Please read our blog here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"sub-heading mb-1 wp-block-list\"><li>Block unwanted Bots.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you checked your Wordfence live traffic report? Please check it and block all of the spam bots hitting your site. Spam bots increase CPU usage of your machine by hitting again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"mt-7 mb-3 wp-block-heading\">2.
