Masbro, please discuss about WAF (Web Application Firewall). I'm facing issues even though I've already used security plugins; my website is still vulnerable.

Thank you. I had WP Rocket installed already, but it needed some tweaking. I had to turn off some of the JS options again, though, as WP Forms warned me that something wasn't right. However, the speed has gone up significantly, especially with the use of Imagnify.

Hey Matt! Thank you for this amazing free content! Everything is clear and well explained! Results are massive! I'm about to use WP Rocket for my company's website but I still have one question regarding Imagify. In the optimisation section, "Create WebP version of images" > Use "Pictures" tags > "if you use a CDN, specify the URL" ; what is the URL I should insert? This is the only doubt I have, the rest is amazing! Thank you for your time and help!
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words, I’m glad you liked it! This only matters if you are using a CDN network. If you have that, the CDN can provide a link to you where you can grab the images from. However, most people don’t have this, it’s only needed if your target audience is somewhere else than your server is located!
Clear explanation, thank you. Following the step-by-step explanations my site no longer displays translations in certain places following the recommendation. I can't figure out which configuration change is causing this WPML anomaly. Do you have any suggestions?
Hi Marc, thanks for the question. Yeah normally never use WPML but TranslatePress; ruclips.net/video/VJo2HtiEEvU/видео.html works way better 😃 But other than that, they both say it should work perfectly with each other... did you clear all caches?
Hi Daniel! Thanks for your question. Just the same! If you notice that ads are not loading, just check the box as shown here: docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1493-google-adsense-ads-are-not-displaying good luck 😀👍🏻
Hi there! Thanks for the question! I don’t have a video about it, but I don’t like it because it makes the site goes slow. Also the way it translates is just… unnecessarily complicated in my opinion 😄 Just like WPML, also a complicated machine…

hi Dr. sir~ good day~ i would like to know if you can teach us about creating Staging website(for revamping with new template) while the old website is still live. not using plugin thingie...
@@WPressDoctor oohh ! That is the name ! Create subdomain~ thank you !! I'll check it out. I've been searching for it but nothing proper shows up huhuhu. Thank you sir !
I'm not sure what hosting company you're using, but more and more companies out there offer staging environments these days. That is where you want to work on your site in the meantime. And with a staging environment, all you have to do is click 1 button and it will all be moved over to your live site. Personally, I'm using Cloudways for my hosting and they do offer this standard.
Merhaba! Soru için teşekkürler. Evet, Polylang'ı sevmiyorum. Bu öğreticiye göz atabilirsiniz, eski ama sistem hala harika çalışıyor: ruclips.net/video/zPZAUs-7W2o/видео.html
Cheers for the video! Also, I purchased WP Rocket from another video (catching plugin video) of yours, thinking it was an affiliate link; checking back again, I saw it was a direct link. Sorry!
HI there! You are very welcome! I'm glad you liked the video and WP Rocket! That's no problem at all, I'm just glad you can speed up your website! Have a great day and stay safe 😁
Hi! Thanks for the question! I did update plugins eventually but they had some plugins that the subscription ran out and they had to purchase it again…. That’s why 😀
You are really amazing dude, Just want to see more videos from you. but please also teach to resolve the issues in details e.g. you exclude the image and logo in mobile device in last. I just want to know more about every and its resolution e.g. paint issue, and the resolution you exclude the image something like this ... can you please elaborate all issues one by one with its solution.
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate it! Just subscribe and hit that notification, then you should be good. Yeah so you should optimize every image before uploading to your website in Photoshop. Max size 2000px width and around 200kb. But for small things like logos, make it the exact site you would need, like 150px width for example or SVG.
Did exactly what you said and my speed got slower and the page looks a little different too. Really like the way you presented it, therefore i stuck around till the end. Am confused what i should do now that the result are even slightly worse.
Hi there! Thanks for the comment! That does not sound good. What I would do is to change and turn off every setting one by one so you can pinpoint the problem 😊
@@WPressDoctor i only activated the plugin and prompt the flag became big. So weird. Ok, i will try that and see what happens. After saving do i have to do some kind of emptying the cache or something?
Hi Matt, great video. We have everything "green" in page speed insights except "performance" PLUS we are "failed" in CWVs. Consequently our rankings how bombed out terribly. We did switch from a Weebly platform to a WP/Elementor platform Autumn last year, We, also dropped the "www" from our URL. I "hope" the page speed (which is pitiful at the moment) "should" get us our CWVs back to a pass when we improve this! On your video where you show the "removing" of lazy load in PSIs out of the 8 slides typically the 1st 4 to 6 are blank! Do I remove the lazy load on everything on the page that "should" show? Many thanks, Keith
Hi Keith, Thanks for your questions. So the CWV's are a bit different than Google Page Speed. Personally I only focus on the Page Speed.. What hosting do you have?
Hi Assaf! I'm glad you liked the video about Speeding up your WordPress website! I don't have a video about that, sorry! But you can just add it in manually?
Why did you remove banner and logo from lazy load? Can you please explain the reason, so I can learn this powerful technique with a logical reason. Thanks!
Hi there! Thanks for the question. I thought I did explain this in the video 🤔. However, you do this to prevent layout shifting when loading 😃 This will boost user experience and the score of course 👍🏻
Hi Jitx! Thanks for the good tip for everybody here. That's true, they use Bunny CDN now 😁 Do you have good results with Bunny CDN? Thanks again and have a wonderful day!
@@WPressDoctor yes I am serving images and videos for my website and results are pretty good. I am currently serving 1GB/month traffic with 100% uptime and 138ms(uptime robot)
Hi Artur Szynkowski! You are very welcome. I'm glad the video was useful! I hope my other video's are also useful for you 😁 Have a great day and stay safe 💪🏼
Hi Dominique! Thanks for your question. CloudFlare is a different kind of system. Yeah it protects you against DDOS attacks, and also helps improving speed, but the best route is to go CloudFlare, WP Rocket AND Solid Security for securing your WordPress website: ruclips.net/video/VL5j_YJgnLM/видео.html good luck!
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you liked the video 😁. You are very welcome! I hope my other video's will also help you out. Have a great day and stay safe 💪🏼
great sir good tutorial of the year its help me alot one question plz Answer me usually I face (Eliminate render-blocking resources) issue in speed how to solve it by WP Rocket Tell me in simple words plz
Hi there! You are very welcome, I’m glad I could help you out with his video. So the render blocking issue is automatically done by WP Rocket if you turn it on, so don’t worry about that. Learn here more about it: docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1407-eliminate-render-blocking-resources
hey, this was very useful. I have a question. I already have these plugin installed on my wordpress: 1. LiteSpeed Cache 2. Jetpack . Can you please suggest me if I can uninstall these first before installing wprocket and then proceed with the optimzation as shown? Will it cause any issue? Do I need to be mindful of anything apart from what is told by you in the video?
Hi there and thanks for the good questions! Yeah in this case I would definitely uninstall LiteSpeed and Jetpack. Then proceed with the video, should all work good then 👍🏻😀 let me know how the score improves!
WP Rocket released a new version (3.16) which can now automatically exclude from lazyload images which are in the viewport. It seems to be the only to make it automatically without further settings.
Hi Jonathan! Thanks for your comment. Sure thing, I have seen that update and I welcome it very much! I think a little birdy told them to do that 😎 Have a great day and take care, greetings
Ok great video. Every video I’ve seen you teach this stuff very concise. In the beginning this website had 57 plugins which you said was a lot. So what is a good number of plugins to have for a woocommerce website? I know there’s not really a definite answer to this but if you saw let’s say 20 plugins for a woocommerce website is that an ok number of plugins to have? Or is that still too many? No sure is this helps but I built my woocommerce website using the Kadence theme. Everything was done with Kadence. And of course I put woocommerce on there to make the shop.
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words and your questions. So yeah there is no exact amount, but my webshops with physical products have no more then 20 plugins mainly WooCommerce addons indeed…
Hi there! Thanks for your question! I’m glad you like this video. Well I’m glad you like my video editing skills, but this is a channel about WordPress and online marketing. Video editing is not something the community is interested in 😃 Plus there are a lot of channels out there that do that 😄 Have a great day and stay safe!
Hello Mat! Thanks for all the info! After having problems with litespeed and when being very fast but eliminating my menu, I wanted to try again with wprocket. Sadly wprocket when turning reduce activity at CDN, it crashed my website, and the same for trying to exclude media. I already had imagify. Because I am a photographer, I have a lot of images on website (and for ok quality I try to make them at least 100-200kb). My normal speed now is 75-80 for mobile. Is there another way for me to get good FCP and LCP for mobile test? Does it make a big difference for google if you have 80 or 90 on the speed test?
Hi Bogdan, thanks for the question. Well the mobile speed is always a challenger. but ranking higher in Google is not only speed, it has to do with a LOT of different kind of things. But if you are at the same in SEO 'points' than yes, speed will make the difference in the end. You could try asking WP ROcket for help, they might want to check it out for you!
Thanks for the video! This was really helpful and made my website much faster. I have a question towards the end of your tutorial: My Largest Contentful Paint is also slowing things down, so I want to exclude this imagine from lazy loading. This photo is the Cookiebot Banner and not an actual photo on my website. How do I get the photolink to this banner? So that I can enter it into WP Rocket?
Hi Signe! Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad this video helped you speed up your WordPress website! Well you can get the cookiebot image URL by rightclicking on it and select "Inspect". Then you should see between all the lines of HTML and CSS, a URL to a image. Copy that one and exclude it in WP Rocket... Let me know if that works!
Hi, super tutorial, I did everything, and it worked very well on the desktop version but for the Largest Contentful Paint it's still 8.7 seconds for the mobile version, any idea why? I did follow each steps, though. Many thanks!
Hi there! Thanks for your question. That is always difficult to say from a comment. It really depends on the theme, how the page is build up and what kind of hosting you are using… so that’s hard to say for me, sorry 🤷🏼♂️
Hi there! Thanks for the question. Yeah that wait time is very long! It could be the hosting company or the DNS that is slow… what is the hosting company name?
You said you don't really like Polylang, when looking at the plugins list. I'm returning to WordPress after a few years (this time with some research first) and was considering using it for a multi-language website for a client very soon. Any reason why?
Hi Matt! Great tutorial! This is the only plugin which really worked for me, and I was finally able to get green scores on Page Speed Insights. I'm very happy with it, but I have one question for you. My landing page is loading very fast now, but the background slider (made with elementor) on the main header section is taking some time. I tried to exclude the images of the slider from lazy loading but that didn't work. Can you suggest another fix? Thank you!
Hi Paco! Thanks for your kind words, I really appreciate it. I'm glad you got high scores! Well done. Exclude them from Lazy Loading was also my first idea. Did you optimized those images so that they are really small? Like imagify or photoshop?
@@WPressDoctor Hey Matt, thank you for your answer! I did some testing and achieved what I was searching excluding the Elementor plugin from the delay Javascript execution 😉 The website is now a little bit slower though, so maybe I'll get rid of the slider...
Hi Matt - love your videos - well explained. I got my performance score on Page Speed Insights from 63 to 85 with wp rocket (awesome!). Then i added Imagify and the performance dropped to 65. :/ How to understand that?
Hi Raimond! Thanks for the kind words and your question. This happens sometimes due to a lot of reasons. Make sure after updating your images and converting them to WebP to clear all caches on your website again. Also make sure to preload CSS. After that is done, score should be higher than it was 😊 Let me know how that goes!
@WPressDoctor Thanks Matt for replying and giving some ideas. We ended up having some errors on the page and deinstalling everything and reinstalling all back. Have now installed WP rocket and imagify. Still cant get the performance numbers higher, stying at 65, LCP is 3,2 sec. Interesting that Imagify could not get it resized properly. Do you offer personal consulting?
Hey, thanks for the video, it is so helpful. I have a website with similar issues to this website you are reviewing, wanted to know if you can make a video about it so I can fix the issues on the website. Thank you 😎👍
Is it a good practice to use WP rocket on Litespeed Server? Because what I have learned that WP rocket is good for Apache or Nginx Servers. Please do clear this doubt. Thanks in advance
Hi there! Thanks for your question . I personally have never tried this, so I don’t know from experience. It seems logical though that on Litespeed servers we should use the LiteSpeed plugin instead of WP Rocket 👍🏻 But again, I never tried 😀
@@WPressDoctor Sure thanks for taking time to reply, because I tried both and WP rocket gave me better result but I am still confuse that is it safe to use Wp rocket on litespeed server🙁
@@WPressDoctor Alright thanks for your humble response 😊 I have tried WP rocket and enable combine JS and my site is not opening it’s taking to the downloading instead of opening 😭
Hi! I have purchased this plugin just because of your tutorial. My metrics on mobile went from 85 down to 77. Desktop went up only one point but it is fine from 91 to 92. Why this could be?
Hi Mia! Thank you for your question. Did the score went up now after these days? Sometimes it takes some time before everything works and the server has cleared it caches (not your website).
Hello, I need help with something. 34:35 I followed the next steps from now on. But I still have very high LCP value. My homepage's first image loads too late. Can you help me. Or do you have a more detailed video on this subject?
Hi there, thanks for the question. Make sure that image is very small in size, the exact dimension you need (dont resize with css) and in WebP format, that might solve the problem?
@@WPressDoctor My problem is caused by the high lcp value. The images are not in webp format, but they are loaded in an optimized way. I have a problem with the loading delay in the Lcp section (Loading Delay 6900ms)
Hi there! Thanks for the question. Well you can of course exclude those scripts if those ads are not showing. Here is a guide to do this: docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1493-google-adsense-ads-are-not-displaying
I installed WP Rocket and followed your guidelines, which greatly improved my site's scores. However, I'm experiencing an issue: when I load my site in Chrome or in an incognito window, it takes a long time to load. But as soon as I touch the screen, it loads instantly. Can you explain what might be causing this issue?
Hi there! Thanks for the question. I’m glad you got your scores up, well done! That first time loading should be indeed way faster… you can look at the waterfall of GTMetrix, to see what is taking so long… it’s hard to tell from here…
Hi Matt im facing white screen issues when installing, my site goes up for 30 mins then blank again. i tried disabling manually optimising images to webp and adjusting each pic to correct dims, ive tried wp-optimize and now Seraphinite Accelerator but still same issue. when pics are available page insights reads error and when white screen page insights score 99. my domain name is with cloudflare, hosting with hostinger and DNS setup back in cloudflare. could that be the issue? Please help
Hi Jody, thats a pretty weird situation. How can your website be up for 30 min. and then goes blank? That sounds more of a PHP error problem than a caching problem. Check your error logs to be sure its not something completely else 😁
@@WPressDoctor Hi Matt, i changed the theme from PHLOX free to ASTRA free and it worked, i kept getting errors when running pagespeed insights. nothing could be read but seems good now. appreciate the feedback. stay awesome.
Hello Matt, I'm following your tutorial and in my WP Rocket there is no "Cache" tab so the first steps in Cache Settings I don't know how to set up, I think maybe it was an update issue. I have no way of activating User Cache: Enable caching for logged-in WordPress Users
Hi there! Thanks for your question. Yes I need to make a new tutorial about this topic! That is no problem, you can just skip the step and go to the next tab, would that work? Sorry! 🤷🏼♂️

Really loved your video, great explanation every step of the way. I have one question, should i exclude from lazy loading manually every picture is that is being loaded in the screen in mobile view?
Hi there and thanks for the question! If you see that the score on Contentful Paint is not that good, then yes, exclude the first images that are inside of your screen upon first load. Not when you scroll down, as they can be lazyloading without a problem 😀. Does that make sense?
@@WPressDoctor Yes, thanks for the clarification. I have a specific question for you. I have a plugin to enable Google recaptcha in my site to protect my eshop from bots. The js file loads 4 times and in every page and that drops my speed quit a lot. From your knowledge have you seen it anywhere else? It's even worse if I have contact form 7 with integrated recaptcha protection.
Hm yes I have seen that, not supposed to work like that. You could try to use reCaptcha v2 - it’s a checkbox “I’m not a robot” instead of V3 which actually is being loaded on every single page. See if that works?
Hi Matt, great video! Thanks for the detailed breakdown, it was super helpful. I’ve been using WP Rocket on my existing online shop, and I’m still seeing a low mobile and Windows speed optimization rate. Do you have any recommendations on what I can add to improve my mobile performance? Any advice would be much appreciated!
Hi there! Thanks for the question! Yeah what you probably see is the LCP rating is low. So make sure on mobile that you don’t load big images so that things “jump around” upon loading your website.

Thank you. I had WP Rocket installed already, but it needed some tweaking. I had to turn off some of the JS options again, though, as WP Forms warned me that something wasn't right. However, the speed has gone up significantly, especially with the use of Imagnify.
Hi there! I’m glad I could help you out with some tweaking here. I’m glad you could speed it up using Imagify! Good job 👍🏻😀

Thank You Matt!!! its such a great knowledge for using WP Rocket. should be WP Rocket can do case study like you did.
Hi Aviano! Thanks for your kind words, I really appreciate it! Yeah the problem with that is that it will always feel like 'staged' or 'fake' because it is then done from the company itself. I'm just using a client website and show you guys the steps I take on a real website 😃. Good luck with your website! Have a great day and take care. Greetings

Hey Matt! Thank you for this amazing free content! Everything is clear and well explained! Results are massive! I'm about to use WP Rocket for my company's website but I still have one question regarding Imagify. In the optimisation section, "Create WebP version of images" > Use "Pictures" tags > "if you use a CDN, specify the URL" ; what is the URL I should insert? This is the only doubt I have, the rest is amazing! Thank you for your time and help!
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words, I’m glad you liked it! This only matters if you are using a CDN network. If you have that, the CDN can provide a link to you where you can grab the images from. However, most people don’t have this, it’s only needed if your target audience is somewhere else than your server is located!
Great video, thank you very much!
You are very welcome! I’m glad you liked the video. Good luck speeding up your own WordPress website 😀👍🏻
Clear explanation, thank you. Following the step-by-step explanations my site no longer displays translations in certain places following the recommendation. I can't figure out which configuration change is causing this WPML anomaly. Do you have any suggestions?
Hi Marc, thanks for the question. Yeah normally never use WPML but TranslatePress; ruclips.net/video/VJo2HtiEEvU/видео.html works way better 😃 But other than that, they both say it should work perfectly with each other... did you clear all caches?
Very good.

Do you have a video about why you don´t like Polylang? I would like to know more about that. Thanks!
Hi there! Thanks for the question! I don’t have a video about it, but I don’t like it because it makes the site goes slow. Also the way it translates is just… unnecessarily complicated in my opinion 😄 Just like WPML, also a complicated machine…

hi Dr. sir~
good day~
i would like to know if you can teach us about creating Staging website(for revamping with new template) while the old website is still live.
not using plugin thingie...
Hi there! Thanks for your question. That’s easy, just create a subdomain and work on that one 😀👍🏻
@@WPressDoctor oohh ! That is the name ! Create subdomain~ thank you !! I'll check it out. I've been searching for it but nothing proper shows up huhuhu. Thank you sir !
I'm not sure what hosting company you're using, but more and more companies out there offer staging environments these days. That is where you want to work on your site in the meantime. And with a staging environment, all you have to do is click 1 button and it will all be moved over to your live site.
Personally, I'm using Cloudways for my hosting and they do offer this standard.

Very valuable information.. Why you didnt update the plugins??
Hi! Thanks for the question! I did update plugins eventually but they had some plugins that the subscription ran out and they had to purchase it again…. That’s why 😀
ah okey thanks a lot@@WPressDoctor
You are really amazing dude, Just want to see more videos from you. but please also teach to resolve the issues in details e.g. you exclude the image and logo in mobile device in last. I just want to know more about every and its resolution e.g. paint issue, and the resolution you exclude the image something like this ... can you please elaborate all issues one by one with its solution.
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate it! Just subscribe and hit that notification, then you should be good. Yeah so you should optimize every image before uploading to your website in Photoshop. Max size 2000px width and around 200kb. But for small things like logos, make it the exact site you would need, like 150px width for example or SVG.
Thank you Matt, very helpful.
I'm using WP Rocket on one of my website hosted by a web host in France. As I'm based in Senegal, can I use RocketCDN?
Hi there! Thanks for the question. You can certainly do. The real question is, where is your target audience? So do you actually need a CDN?
@@WPressDoctor Our target audience is in Senegal (West Africa), which is why I'm wondering if I need a CDN given our geographical location.
Hm.. I would definitely try another hosting company closer to your area or indeed get a CDN in your case…
@@WPressDoctor Okay thanks for your reply
Did exactly what you said and my speed got slower and the page looks a little different too.
Really like the way you presented it, therefore i stuck around till the end. Am confused what i should do now that the result are even slightly worse.
Oh and the wpml flag on my site is now huge and i dont know how to change it back
Hi there! Thanks for the comment! That does not sound good. What I would do is to change and turn off every setting one by one so you can pinpoint the problem 😊
@@WPressDoctor i only activated the plugin and prompt the flag became big. So weird. Ok, i will try that and see what happens. After saving do i have to do some kind of emptying the cache or something?
Yeah you can do that, but most of the time it will do that automatically when changing settings 👍🏻😀
Hey nice job...
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words, I’m glad you like the video 😀 Have a great day and stay safe!
Hi Matt, great video. We have everything "green" in page speed insights except "performance" PLUS we are "failed" in CWVs. Consequently our rankings how bombed out terribly. We did switch from a Weebly platform to a WP/Elementor platform Autumn last year, We, also dropped the "www" from our URL. I "hope" the page speed (which is pitiful at the moment) "should" get us our CWVs back to a pass when we improve this! On your video where you show the "removing" of lazy load in PSIs out of the 8 slides typically the 1st 4 to 6 are blank! Do I remove the lazy load on everything on the page that "should" show?
Many thanks, Keith
Hi Keith, Thanks for your questions. So the CWV's are a bit different than Google Page Speed. Personally I only focus on the Page Speed.. What hosting do you have?
That was a great video, do you have a video on how to exclude a plugin (buttonizer) from "remove unused css"?
Hi Assaf! I'm glad you liked the video about Speeding up your WordPress website! I don't have a video about that, sorry! But you can just add it in manually?
Why did you remove banner and logo from lazy load? Can you please explain the reason, so I can learn this powerful technique with a logical reason.
Thanks!
Hi there! Thanks for the question. I thought I did explain this in the video 🤔. However, you do this to prevent layout shifting when loading 😃 This will boost user experience and the score of course 👍🏻
About the CDN part just hook in Bunny CDN (even rocket CDN is now using bunny CDN under the hood)
Minimum charge is 1$/month so pretty affordable
Hi Jitx! Thanks for the good tip for everybody here. That's true, they use Bunny CDN now 😁 Do you have good results with Bunny CDN? Thanks again and have a wonderful day!
@@WPressDoctor yes I am serving images and videos for my website and results are pretty good.
I am currently serving 1GB/month traffic with 100% uptime and 138ms(uptime robot)
That was awesome! Thank you for putting the work Matt, much appreciate it.

Cloudfare plugin is not the best solution? Not only for speed but also for increased security?
Hi Dominique! Thanks for your question. CloudFlare is a different kind of system. Yeah it protects you against DDOS attacks, and also helps improving speed, but the best route is to go CloudFlare, WP Rocket AND Solid Security for securing your WordPress website: ruclips.net/video/VL5j_YJgnLM/видео.html good luck!

one question plz Answer me
usually I face (Eliminate render-blocking resources) issue in speed how to solve it by WP Rocket Tell me in simple words plz
Hi there! You are very welcome, I’m glad I could help you out with his video. So the render blocking issue is automatically done by WP Rocket if you turn it on, so don’t worry about that. Learn here more about it: docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1407-eliminate-render-blocking-resources
hey, this was very useful. I have a question. I already have these plugin installed on my wordpress: 1. LiteSpeed Cache 2. Jetpack . Can you please suggest me if I can uninstall these first before installing wprocket and then proceed with the optimzation as shown? Will it cause any issue? Do I need to be mindful of anything apart from what is told by you in the video?
Hi there and thanks for the good questions! Yeah in this case I would definitely uninstall LiteSpeed and Jetpack. Then proceed with the video, should all work good then 👍🏻😀 let me know how the score improves!
WP Rocket released a new version (3.16) which can now automatically exclude from lazyload images which are in the viewport. It seems to be the only to make it automatically without further settings.
Hi Jonathan! Thanks for your comment. Sure thing, I have seen that update and I welcome it very much! I think a little birdy told them to do that 😎 Have a great day and take care, greetings
Ok great video. Every video I’ve seen you teach this stuff very concise. In the beginning this website had 57 plugins which you said was a lot. So what is a good number of plugins to have for a woocommerce website? I know there’s not really a definite answer to this but if you saw let’s say 20 plugins for a woocommerce website is that an ok number of plugins to have? Or is that still too many? No sure is this helps but I built my woocommerce website using the Kadence theme. Everything was done with Kadence. And of course I put woocommerce on there to make the shop.
Hi there! Thanks for the kind words and your questions. So yeah there is no exact amount, but my webshops with physical products have no more then 20 plugins mainly WooCommerce addons indeed…
Great one. Please make a video of how you edit your video in detail.
Hi there! Thanks for your question! I’m glad you like this video. Well I’m glad you like my video editing skills, but this is a channel about WordPress and online marketing. Video editing is not something the community is interested in 😃 Plus there are a lot of channels out there that do that 😄 Have a great day and stay safe!
Hello Mat! Thanks for all the info! After having problems with litespeed and when being very fast but eliminating my menu, I wanted to try again with wprocket. Sadly wprocket when turning reduce activity at CDN, it crashed my website, and the same for trying to exclude media. I already had imagify. Because I am a photographer, I have a lot of images on website (and for ok quality I try to make them at least 100-200kb). My normal speed now is 75-80 for mobile. Is there another way for me to get good FCP and LCP for mobile test? Does it make a big difference for google if you have 80 or 90 on the speed test?
Hi Bogdan, thanks for the question. Well the mobile speed is always a challenger. but ranking higher in Google is not only speed, it has to do with a LOT of different kind of things. But if you are at the same in SEO 'points' than yes, speed will make the difference in the end. You could try asking WP ROcket for help, they might want to check it out for you!
Thanks matt
Hi there! Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it. I’m glad I could help you out! Have a great day and stay safe 👍🏻😀
Thanks for the video! This was really helpful and made my website much faster. I have a question towards the end of your tutorial: My Largest Contentful Paint is also slowing things down, so I want to exclude this imagine from lazy loading. This photo is the Cookiebot Banner and not an actual photo on my website. How do I get the photolink to this banner? So that I can enter it into WP Rocket?
Hi Signe! Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad this video helped you speed up your WordPress website! Well you can get the cookiebot image URL by rightclicking on it and select "Inspect". Then you should see between all the lines of HTML and CSS, a URL to a image. Copy that one and exclude it in WP Rocket... Let me know if that works!
Hi, super tutorial, I did everything, and it worked very well on the desktop version but for the Largest Contentful Paint it's still 8.7 seconds for the mobile version, any idea why? I did follow each steps, though. Many thanks!
Hi there! Thanks for your question. That is always difficult to say from a comment. It really depends on the theme, how the page is build up and what kind of hosting you are using… so that’s hard to say for me, sorry 🤷🏼♂️
Thank you so much, really helpful!
Hi there! You are very welcome! I’m glad I could help you out with this video. Have a great day and take care 😀👍🏻
Matt, Pingdom says my website has a wait time of 4300ms out of a total of 4500ms. Is this an issue with hosting? I think i'm using WP hosting...
Hi there! Thanks for the question. Yeah that wait time is very long! It could be the hosting company or the DNS that is slow… what is the hosting company name?
@@WPressDoctor Hi Matt, I'm using wordpress itself. I don't believe I'm using a separate host... Do you have one that you recommend?
Yes sir, try wp.discount/host/ for a cool discount. I use this hosting company and it’s fast, good service and very cheap 😀👍🏻
What about Litespeed on Divi?
Hi there! Thanks for the question. What about Litespeed? I have tested Litespeed in one tutorial, but I wasn’t impressed…. 🤷🏼♂️
You said you don't really like Polylang, when looking at the plugins list. I'm returning to WordPress after a few years (this time with some research first) and was considering using it for a multi-language website for a client very soon. Any reason why?
Hi Matt! Great tutorial! This is the only plugin which really worked for me, and I was finally able to get green scores on Page Speed Insights.
I'm very happy with it, but I have one question for you. My landing page is loading very fast now, but the background slider (made with elementor) on the main header section is taking some time. I tried to exclude the images of the slider from lazy loading but that didn't work. Can you suggest another fix? Thank you!
Hi Paco! Thanks for your kind words, I really appreciate it. I'm glad you got high scores! Well done. Exclude them from Lazy Loading was also my first idea. Did you optimized those images so that they are really small? Like imagify or photoshop?
@@WPressDoctor Hey Matt, thank you for your answer! I did some testing and achieved what I was searching excluding the Elementor plugin from the delay Javascript execution 😉 The website is now a little bit slower though, so maybe I'll get rid of the slider...
Yeah that's always a tough choice, speed or design.... 😉
Hi Matt - love your videos - well explained. I got my performance score on Page Speed Insights from 63 to 85 with wp rocket (awesome!). Then i added Imagify and the performance dropped to 65. :/ How to understand that?
Hi Raimond! Thanks for the kind words and your question. This happens sometimes due to a lot of reasons. Make sure after updating your images and converting them to WebP to clear all caches on your website again. Also make sure to preload CSS. After that is done, score should be higher than it was 😊 Let me know how that goes!
@WPressDoctor Thanks Matt for replying and giving some ideas. We ended up having some errors on the page and deinstalling everything and reinstalling all back. Have now installed WP rocket and imagify. Still cant get the performance numbers higher, stying at 65, LCP is 3,2 sec. Interesting that Imagify could not get it resized properly. Do you offer personal consulting?
Hi Raimond, that’s odd. At this moment no personal counseling yet, but maybe in the future 👍🏻😀 What theme and hosting do you have?
Hey, thanks for the video, it is so helpful.
I have a website with similar issues to this website you are reviewing, wanted to know if you can make a video about it so I can fix the issues on the website. Thank you 😎👍
Hi there! Thanks for the question. What kind of problems do you specifically mean? This site has a lot of problems 😎
Is it a good practice to use WP rocket on Litespeed Server? Because what I have learned that WP rocket is good for Apache or Nginx Servers. Please do clear this doubt. Thanks in advance
Hi there! Thanks for your question . I personally have never tried this, so I don’t know from experience. It seems logical though that on Litespeed servers we should use the LiteSpeed plugin instead of WP Rocket 👍🏻 But again, I never tried 😀
@@WPressDoctor Sure thanks for taking time to reply, because I tried both and WP rocket gave me better result but I am still confuse that is it safe to use Wp rocket on litespeed server🙁
Oh yeah it’s safe, don’t worry about that. Why wouldn’t it be? As long as you have Security in place like Solid Security, all should be good 😀
@@WPressDoctor Alright thanks for your humble response 😊 I have tried WP rocket and enable combine JS and my site is not opening it’s taking to the downloading instead of opening 😭
Hm try changing some settings turn of the JS day and minification 😀
Hi! I have purchased this plugin just because of your tutorial. My metrics on mobile went from 85 down to 77. Desktop went up only one point but it is fine from 91 to 92. Why this could be?
Hi Mia! Thank you for your question. Did the score went up now after these days? Sometimes it takes some time before everything works and the server has cleared it caches (not your website).
Hello, I need help with something. 34:35 I followed the next steps from now on. But I still have very high LCP value. My homepage's first image loads too late. Can you help me. Or do you have a more detailed video on this subject?
Hi there, thanks for the question. Make sure that image is very small in size, the exact dimension you need (dont resize with css) and in WebP format, that might solve the problem?
@@WPressDoctor My problem is caused by the high lcp value. The images are not in webp format, but they are loaded in an optimized way. I have a problem with the loading delay in the Lcp section (Loading Delay 6900ms)
Hm… could that be because of hosting? What does the waterfall says on GTMetrix?
How does this affect revenue of blog websites that are monetized by google adsense and display ads that uses javascript?
Hi there! Thanks for the question. Well you can of course exclude those scripts if those ads are not showing. Here is a guide to do this: docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1493-google-adsense-ads-are-not-displaying
I installed WP Rocket and followed your guidelines, which greatly improved my site's scores. However, I'm experiencing an issue: when I load my site in Chrome or in an incognito window, it takes a long time to load. But as soon as I touch the screen, it loads instantly. Can you explain what might be causing this issue?
Hi there! Thanks for the question. I’m glad you got your scores up, well done! That first time loading should be indeed way faster… you can look at the waterfall of GTMetrix, to see what is taking so long… it’s hard to tell from here…
Hi Matt im facing white screen issues when installing, my site goes up for 30 mins then blank again. i tried disabling manually optimising images to webp and adjusting each pic to correct dims, ive tried wp-optimize and now Seraphinite Accelerator but still same issue. when pics are available page insights reads error and when white screen page insights score 99. my domain name is with cloudflare, hosting with hostinger and DNS setup back in cloudflare. could that be the issue? Please help
Hi Jody, thats a pretty weird situation. How can your website be up for 30 min. and then goes blank? That sounds more of a PHP error problem than a caching problem. Check your error logs to be sure its not something completely else 😁
@@WPressDoctor Hi Matt, i changed the theme from PHLOX free to ASTRA free and it worked, i kept getting errors when running pagespeed insights. nothing could be read but seems good now. appreciate the feedback. stay awesome.
Great! Sometimes the server clears its own cache and all is good 😊 I’m glad it works now 😁
Hello Matt, I'm following your tutorial and in my WP Rocket there is no "Cache" tab so the first steps in Cache Settings I don't know how to set up, I think maybe it was an update issue. I have no way of activating User Cache: Enable caching for logged-in WordPress Users
Hi there! Thanks for your question. Yes I need to make a new tutorial about this topic! That is no problem, you can just skip the step and go to the next tab, would that work? Sorry! 🤷🏼♂️
Cool

Really loved your video, great explanation every step of the way. I have one question, should i exclude from lazy loading manually every picture is that is being loaded in the screen in mobile view?
Hi there and thanks for the question! If you see that the score on Contentful Paint is not that good, then yes, exclude the first images that are inside of your screen upon first load. Not when you scroll down, as they can be lazyloading without a problem 😀. Does that make sense?
@@WPressDoctor Yes, thanks for the clarification. I have a specific question for you. I have a plugin to enable Google recaptcha in my site to protect my eshop from bots. The js file loads 4 times and in every page and that drops my speed quit a lot. From your knowledge have you seen it anywhere else? It's even worse if I have contact form 7 with integrated recaptcha protection.
Hm yes I have seen that, not supposed to work like that. You could try to use reCaptcha v2 - it’s a checkbox “I’m not a robot” instead of V3 which actually is being loaded on every single page. See if that works?
Hi Matt, great video! Thanks for the detailed breakdown, it was super helpful. I’ve been using WP Rocket on my existing online shop, and I’m still seeing a low mobile and Windows speed optimization rate. Do you have any recommendations on what I can add to improve my mobile performance? Any advice would be much appreciated!
Hi there! Thanks for the question! Yeah what you probably see is the LCP rating is low. So make sure on mobile that you don’t load big images so that things “jump around” upon loading your website.
Hey Matt can help to setup after installed?
Hi there! Well just follow the video and do it step by step. Way cheaper than hire me to do it for you 😂
