My site has been hacked! Can you help?
August 11, 2016What is a responsive or mobile-friendly website?
August 12, 2016My website is slow. Can you help?
Absolutely! There are a number of reasons why a website may be slow. Through a series of tests, we are often able to isolate the problem and make recommendations on how to fix the issue. Sometimes the issue is with the WordPress theme itself, in which case you may need a new design. But more often than not, we’ve found the culprit to be too many plugins. Simply by uninstalling a few plugins, the problem can significantly improve.
Another reason why a website may be slow is the hosting environment. Your current host may not be a good fit for the number of users visiting your website or the amount of photos or videos you have on your website. If that’s the case, we would be happy to copy your website over to our server and do some speed tests so you can see if moving your website to our server would help improve your website speed.
We have also found that some clients have unrealistic expectations about how fast their website should load. You may notice that websites like Amazon load almost instantly. That is because they have a really large budget and spend a lot of money on their hosting environment to make sure their website loads quickly. Unless you have the budget of Amazon, your website just won’t load that fast. We are happy to have a look at your website and let you know if there are ways to improve your website speed. Please see our à la carte prices page for speed analysis pricing and contact us today.
