WordPress speed optimization that moves the needle.
We fix slow WordPress sites at the source. Core Web Vitals tuned on real devices, asset pipelines rebuilt, queries profiled and caches layered correctly. You get a measurable Lighthouse lift, happier users and a ranking signal search engines already use.
Real numbers, real devices .
Most speed plugins chase synthetic Lighthouse scores while the real users on cellular phones still wait four seconds for a hero image. We measure with field data from CrUX, real device throttling and Server-Timing so the wins show up where people actually browse.
Every engagement ships a before and after report with LCP, INP, CLS and TTFB numbers, the fixes that moved each metric and the code, config or infra change behind it. Nothing gets marked done on vibes.
- Core Web Vitals measured on real mobile hardware, not lab only
- Query Monitor and Server-Timing profiling at the PHP layer
- Before and after report with numbers you can show the team
From audit to green scores in four steps.
A structured, measurable process. You see the baseline, the hypotheses, the fixes and the lift. No black box, no guesswork.
Baseline audit and measurement
We capture CrUX field data, run Lighthouse and WebPageTest on representative URLs, profile the backend with Query Monitor and Server-Timing and write a ranked list of hypotheses by expected impact on LCP, INP and CLS.
Quick wins and frontend cleanup
Images converted to AVIF or WebP with correct sizes, fonts subset and preloaded, render-blocking CSS and JS resolved, third-party scripts deferred or proxied, hero resources preloaded and layout shift removed at the source.
Backend, query and cache work
Slow queries rewritten or cached, autoloaded options pruned, object cache wired to Redis, page cache layered with stale-while-revalidate and an edge CDN configured with correct cache keys and bypass rules.
Verification, report and guardrails
We re-run field and lab measurements, deliver a before and after report, wire a performance budget to CI and show your team how to keep scores green when new plugins or content land.

“We love our brand and yes, we're total control freaks. Handing our website to someone on the other side of the world was terrifying. But WP Pro Devs absolute legend, exceeded our sky high standards. Calm, patient, and genuinely invested in the relationship as much as the code.”
Fixed quotes, measurable outcomes .
Pricing reflects scope and site complexity, not hours burnt. Pick a tier close to your needs or ask for a custom estimate after the audit.

Every engagement ships measurably faster .
We do not close a performance ticket on a lab score alone. Wins have to show up for real users on real devices over real networks.
LCP under 2.5s
Hero resource preloaded, image served in modern format at correct size, render path unblocked on mobile.
INP under 200ms
Long tasks broken up, third-party scripts deferred, main thread kept responsive under real interaction.
CLS under 0.1
Explicit dimensions on media, font swap strategy set and reserved space for late-loading widgets.
TTFB under 600ms
PHP profiled, slow queries rewritten, autoloaded options pruned and page cache serving the bulk of traffic.
Lighthouse 90+ mobile
Performance, accessibility, SEO and best practices all measured and documented before we close the job.
CrUX field wins
Improvement verified on 28 day field data, not just a single lab run you can cherry-pick.
Edge CDN configured
Cache keys, bypass cookies and purge rules set so logged-in and cart traffic never serves stale content.
Performance budget in CI
Pull requests fail if LCP, bundle size or long tasks regress beyond the threshold agreed with you.
Documented handover
Your team gets a runbook covering budgets, monitoring dashboards and how to diagnose the next regression.
Your clients. Our performance team. Your brand.
We are the silent performance team behind design and marketing agencies. Your client sees your audit, your report and your brand on every artefact. Our name never appears in the plugin header, the Slack channel or the handover docs.

How white label delivery works
Share the slow site
You send the staging access, current Lighthouse and any pain points the client has raised.
Audit and partner quote
We run the baseline, write the ranked hypotheses and send you a partner rate quote. Never shown to your client.
Add margin, quote your client
You mark up, brand the proposal and present it on your letterhead at your price.
Client approves the scope
Your client signs off on your terms, with your brand, and pays you directly.
We tune under NDA
Silent work on branded staging. No vendor credits, no email signatures, no footer links from us.
Deliver as your own
You review the before and after, accept handover and ship the report to your client under your agency name.
