“WordPress Performance optimization,” is the first thing, that every WordPress user searches on the web. Once you finish installing WordPress on your site, chances are high that you may want to find ways to optimize your WordPress site and the best performance optimization plugin for WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve been there, back in the early days of my exposure to WordPress, I also used to be in that place. In those days, there used to be lesser plugins to optimize WordPress and relatively, pretty basic guides on how to optimize self-hosted WordPress blogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those guides used to tell, what to do but, an average WordPress user can’t do much on his own, due to the lack of required knowledge and a risk that he might break his site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Of course, we’re now in the Post-Managed WordPress hosting<\/a> era, where WordPress runs on steroids and even the under-optimized WordPress sites loads fast. But robust hosting specialized for WordPress is not the most efficient way to cut down the load time of your WordPress site, instead, you can achieve greater results by optimizing your WordPress site for speed with the help of a specialized plugin, such as WP Rocket<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WP Rocket made Blogosense.com Test site, 73% Faster<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Now in order to keep you hooked up with this WP Rocket review, allow me to show you what WP Rocket did to our Blogosense.com test site. The test site is hosted on shared hosting, “baby” plan at Hostgator.com<\/a> that costs roughly $4 a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Considering the fact that a large chunk of WordPress users relies on good old shared hosting platform for WordPress. Therefore, I cloned the exact copy of Blogosense.com on my test site, to first test the performance advancement on a shared host.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After finishing the cloning, without any further optimization I tested the Blogosense.com clone on a shared host with Pingdom Tools, and to my surprise, the site took 3.98 seconds to load completely. That’s a really slow website and don’t expect Google, to put this slow site rank high on SERPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, further, I installed WP Rocket plugin<\/a> and configure it fully, except the CDN module and again tested the load time of my Blogosense.com test clone, and the results were fascinating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
