Database optimization
This should be done on every website to make their website healthy. With the help of Perfmatters, you can just delete the unwanted database rows and maintain them with just a click.
CDN rewrite
By storing your assets on many servers (POPs) across the world and delivering them locally from the cache, a content delivery network (CDN) can speed up your WordPress site. Your WordPress site can be connected to a CDN with the help of the Perfmatters plugin.
Perfmatter’s CDN rewrite has the following characteristics:
- When you provide your CDN URL, all of your assets, including photos and other files, are rebuilt to link to it.
- Which WordPress directories you choose to include are entirely up to you.
- Exclude rewriting certain file types and even assets that contain strings.
Defer and delay JavaScript
Are you familiar with the warning to “eliminate render-blocking resources”? This indicates that JavaScript is delaying (blocking) the initial page load of your WordPress website. Deferring JavaScript is a simple approach to speeding up website rendering, as Google suggests. Delaying the use of JavaScript until user engagement is another effective strategy. With the Perfmatters plugin, both are possible.
Remove unused CSS[New]
When you have code being loaded by a plugin or your theme that isn’t needed or used on a page, PageSpeed Insights will minimize unnecessary CSS warnings. Typically, stylesheets are only enqueued by developers when they are in use. However, extra styles that might not be necessary are frequently also included. As a result, your WordPress site will load slowly and include a lot of unnecessary CSS. Additionally, render-blocking warnings may be triggered. With Perfmatters, you can automatically delete unneeded CSS.
Host Google Fonts locally
It’s quicker to host your Google Fonts locally (or on your CDN) with Perfmatters because Chrome, along with all browsers, has changed to HTTP cache partitioning, which means that Google Fonts are now redownloaded for every website, regardless of whether they have already been cached in a user’s browser.
