Why most WordPress sites are slow — and how we avoid it
| Common cause | Symptom | Our approach |
|---|---|---|
| Multipurpose theme | Loads code for features you never use | Lean custom theme or a minimal block theme |
| Page builder overload | Div soup, huge CSS, poor CLS | Native block editor with custom patterns |
| 30+ plugins | Conflicts, security holes, slow admin | Under 12 vetted plugins, each justified |
| Unoptimised images | LCP over 4 seconds on mobile | WebP/AVIF, responsive sizes, lazy loading |
| Cheap shared hosting | Slow TTFB regardless of front-end work | Managed hosting plus CDN recommendation |
The maintainability test
A site is only fast if it is still fast a year later. We build patterns your editors can reuse, so adding a page does not mean bolting on another plugin.
