How you can make WordPress faster with WP Rocket
WordPress is a software for creating and managing websites and especially online blogs. So that the work with the software is easier and also the visit of the website is pleasant for the users, it is important to use and design the software as effectively as possible. In most cases, web content is difficult to use when the structure of a website is poorly designed, or when the loading time becomes very long. In order to significantly reduce the load time of WordPress websites in particular, there are a variety of plugins available. Most of these small software extensions are quite useful and free. However, every free software has its limitations. However, if you care a lot about finding a professional and really high-quality solution for your website, then the paid plugin WP Rocket is the best choice.
What features does WP Rocket offer?
This plugin offers a variety of functions to make WordPress faster. In order for you to be able to work with it comfortably at all, it is first important that WP Rocket itself is easy to set up. This is the case, and the plugin can be set up intuitively and without any special additional knowledge. To improve your website's ranking in search engine results, the cache must be filled. This is usually done by site visitors. Since these will hardly be present, especially in the beginning, WP Rocket simulates them with a bot. The loading time of all pages is shortened by caching. Since the page is completely in the cache, it is immediately preloaded ready for retrieval. Also a synchronization with a sitemap accelerates the loading time significantly. The loading speed of your website depends on the internet connection of the visitor and his browser. To avoid delays, WP Rocket GZIP compresses the page to fit the browser and reduce the data volume. Another factor that negatively affects the loading speed by too large, especially superfluous, amounts of data, is an overcrowded Database. This can be regularly decluttered and optimized via a manual command or time-controlled. Images on websites often represent large data packages that also take up loading time. WP Rocket therefore loads only those images that are in the visible area of the monitor, optimizes them additionally by adding missing attributes, and thus saves long pre-load times. CSS, JavaScript and HTML files are minimized to save further amounts of data. The order in which files are loaded also plays a role. It's no use if individual files are already loaded before the basic structure of the page is built. WP Rocket therefore places especially compute-intensive JavaScript files at the end of the loading sequence and thus saves time in advance to build the page. In addition, WP Rocket is compatible with CDN, CloudFlare, as well as Multisite compatible and allows for hassle-free use on mobile devices. Furthermore, WP Rocket improves the DNS resolution time.
Further characteristics and conclusion
The summarized functions of WP Rocket show only a part of the total package you get through this plugin. As you can see, every imaginable vulnerability in the loading time of WordPress websites has been taken into account and optimized by an appropriate solution when creating this software. This way you not only make the visit of your website more pleasant for the visitor, but also optimize it for search engines. Websites with long loading times are also sanctioned by the algorithms with a worse ranking, as is the case with an unfavorable keyword density. This way your WordPress website will be further increased in the ranking than it would have been listed without optimizing the loading time. In addition to optimizing the loading speed of your website, WP Rocket offers several other functions that increase the functionality and usability of the website. Since the plugin is fee-based, it does not use advertising. If you wish, you can even use the white label function to remove all references to WP Rocket from your website. WP Rocket is also suitable for websites with e-commerce. In combination with various e-commerce programs, WP Rocket closes the check-out page when users have finished shopping online, as well as the user's shopping cart. In addition, WP Rocket provides a distinction between simple visitors and registered and logged in users of your website. Of course, the benefits of the WP Rocket plugin are made available especially to logged-in users. Another advantage for you, as the operator of the website, is the compatibility of WP Rocket with multilingual websites. By offering some common languages, but at least English, you can increase the reach of your website many times over. To make your website multilingual, you can for example use the plugins qTranslate, WPML, and Polylang and be sure that WP Rocket works smoothly with these and other translation plugins. If you want to integrate more features into WP Rocket and you have the knowledge to do so, this plugin offers you a variety of interfaces where you can further customize the code to your needs.
