Why is my website slow?

Usually one of three things: slow hosting, heavy pages (large images, many plugins or scripts), or both. A quick check separates them: if the server takes seconds to answer, no page edit fixes that.

Can you speed up my site without rebuilding it?

Often, yes. Hosting, caching, image weight and plugin cleanup solve most cases. If the theme itself cannot perform on phones, we say so and quote a redesign instead of polishing a dead end.

Do I have to change hosts?

No. We can look after the site on the host you already have. If that host is the bottleneck, moving one standard site to hosting we look after is included in every plan.

How much does it cost to fix a slow website?

Diagnosis starts free with the health check. Ongoing care is $99, $249 or $499 a month depending on change time. One-off work beyond a plan is $125/hr, quoted before we start.

Slow website · find it, fix it, keep it fast

Your website is slow. Visitors leave before it loads.

People do not wait for a slow site, and search engines notice. We measure where the time actually goes (server response, page weight, or the site itself), fix what is fixable, and keep monitoring it so it does not creep back.

Signs speed is costing you work

The site takes several seconds to show anything, especially on a phone.
Customers say the site 'never loaded' but it works fine on your office Wi-Fi.
Pages feel fine but the first load, or the admin, crawls.
You added photos, popups and plugins for years and nobody ever took anything away.

What we do about it

Measure first

Server response time, page weight, redirects and what loads before the visitor sees anything. The free health check below does the first pass in seconds.

Fix the server side

If the hosting is the bottleneck, the site moves to hosting we look after, or we fix the setup where it is. Moving one standard site is included in every plan.

Trim the page

Oversized images, dead plugins and scripts that block the page are the usual weight. Small fixes are plan time; bigger work is quoted first.

Keep it fast

Uptime and security monitoring around the clock, updates applied for you, and daily backups if a change ever makes things worse.

Which plan fits

Essentials ($99/mo) covers hosting, monitoring and a half hour of small fixes a month, which is where most speed work lands. If the template itself is the problem, we will tell you: that is a redesign, quoted as a fixed price before work starts.
