Wordpress horsepower
This document provides 10 tips to speed up a WordPress website. It recommends optimizing code by removing unnecessary elements, compressing files, reducing server calls by combining files, caching content, using content delivery networks (CDNs) to distribute content efficiently, upgrading servers, improving databases, optimizing .htaccess files, and using plugins to block spam. Images and other media should also be optimized, and unnecessary queries reduced. Implementing these tips can help speed up page loading and improve the user experience on WordPress sites.
