New Guy 4 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Aside from the typical caching plugin, check your theme out. Make usre it's using valid markup. If your not on a shared box, try using nginx/varnish . Also, start using a cdn if you aren't already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kev123 132 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 optimise images.wp smushit or http://luci.criosweb.ro/riot/ delete non essential plugins and do a bit of research before installing a theme some are really bloated. install https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/follow some guides on this you will get the most benefit with a proper setup(takes a bit of tweaking) just installing and enablingisn't a great advantage. there some of the free options and effective for very little work. You can obviously start to look at hosts,vps,cloud etc if you want ot spend more money Quote Link to post Share on other sites
