Rivac LabsWordPress Performance Engineer
A slow WordPress site is almost always a combination of uncached pages, unoptimized assets, and plugins doing more work than they need to on every request — all fixable once you actually profile it instead of installing another caching plugin and hoping. We do caching, query and asset optimization, and plugin performance tuning aimed at real Core Web Vitals improvements on high-traffic WordPress sites. This is for sites where growth in traffic or content has made page speed a real problem, hurting conversion and search visibility. You get measured before/after performance data, not just a should-be-faster-now guess.
How We’d Approach This
A clear, staged plan — not a black box
- 1
Profile the site's real-world load times and identify which plugins, queries, or assets are the actual bottleneck.
- 2
Test caching, asset optimization, and plugin changes against a staging environment under realistic load.
- 3
Review the performance gains and any functional trade-offs with you before pushing to production.
- 4
Deploy optimizations to production and confirm Core Web Vitals gains hold under live traffic.
