WordPress speed FAQs

There are several steps that you can take to make your WordPress site load faster, including:

  • Enable caching: If your host didn’t pre-install a plugin for this, you can install and activate one.
  • Optimize images: Make images as small as possible, without compromising quality, and convert them to WebP formatting. 
  • Choose the right theme: Some WP themes are optimized for speed. Here are seven of the fastest.

WordPress can be fast, but it depends on how you use it. A WordPress website built on the fastest hosting service available, using a streamlined theme and plugins, well-compressed and lazy-loading images, and a CDN can be very fast.

There are several good, free tools you can use to check a WordPress website’s speed. One of the best is Google’s own PageSpeed Insights. Enter the domain of your WordPress site, and the PageSpeed Insights tool will give you detailed scoring and solutions for improvements.
