WordPress does not have a system for speed optimization by default. That’s why you need a powerful plugin that speed up WordPress with technical and advanced features, yet accessible to everyone.
WP Speed of Light starts with an advanced static cache, plus, you got a file minification and group tools, a database cleanup system, a .htaccess optimization, an auto-cache cleaner and a full CDN integration.

When it comes to performance loading time, it requires some test to identify which plugin, theme, page may require more attention.
WP Speed of Light also includes a speed loading test and compare, and a database queries test. To go one step beyond with your WordPress speed, a PRO ADDON upgrade (optional) with custom support is available.
