My free plugin from wordpress.org now includes a Bot Analysis. Bots , good and bad, take up hosting resources. Most WordPress website owners have no idea how many resources are being eaten by bots. Some WordPress website owners are savvy enough to block the worst of the bots. Even those folk won’t have any idea […]
I just upgraded my WordPress plugin to support up to 25,000 concurrent user load test, for both WordPress and WooCommerce. It is using a high performance server, with up to 72 cores, using Intel Xeon Platinum processors, and 25 Gbit internet connection. This will totally smash any WordPress hosting server – it will burn the hosting […]
Now you can find out how many users your WordPress website can handle. You can try out my plugin ‘wp Hosting Performance Plugin’ here – or searching ‘performance check’ in the add plugins of /wp-admin/ on your site. Often it’s only you surfing your own website when you are testing. Sometimes there might be a bot […]

I’ve written a plugin that load tests your WordPress and WooCommerce website for free. You install my plugin choose how many simultaneous users you want tested, 10/50/100/500/1000 (up to […]
Sometimes it’s hard to know why your WordPress website is going slow. And your hosting company says it’s your fault ‘too many plugins’. The truth is shared web hosting is really only able to service very small WordPress sites. Once the WordPress site get a bit larger in terms of posts/pages or the number of […]

I am interested in what you think of the updated software and technology levels. Am I too harsh ? do you have software that needs a better rating ? Just updated the plugin that checks your WordPress hosting performance. Click here. The plug checks your underlying hosting, and gives it a rating. It measures […]
PHP 7.2 was released late last year, and is now recommended by https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/. 75% WordPress sites are still using PHP 5.x according to https://wordpress.org/about/stats/ I just thought I’d make a comparison of performance of a few recent versions of PHP. This is a comparison of the WordPress page load speed. This isn’t the whole page loading in the […]
NetRegistry hosting isn’t very fast. But with this little tweak you can get reasonable performance. You can ask support to do it for you, but there is about 5 simple clicks to do it yourself. The defaults at netregistry are not very good. They are old, slow and easily hacked. My test site http://netregistryreview.wpdone.com.au was taking around […]
Cherri owns an online store – selling retro clothes – peachy. As she spent more time advertising her store, the site spent more time crashing and going slower. This lead to a halt in online sales growth. Cheri know her eCommerce numbers – and has observed a dramatic uptick in online sales since moving to […]
I had the pleasure of working with Cheri from https://www.cheribombretro.com/. Previously her site was on a ‘business plan’ of a Crazy Domains – their cloud solution with 300% more performance … mmmmmm She was fed up with trying to keep the site working. It was constantly crashing , and causing her customers a lot of […]
It’s 70 pages – so it’s thorough. It does get fairly technical and a bit dry, but I’ve tried to make it a friendly read. It’s available on both kindle and as a pdf download. There is some introductory pricing for June here. This book is aimed at helping you make your WordPress website faster […]
We recently developed a plugin – the WordPress web content accelerator – to help WordPress websites load more quickly. The basics of how long a WordPress web page takes to load includes: how fast the base html WordPress page takes to load how fast all the assets on the page load – the images/js/css The […]
My client had a valuable landing page, and it was loading slow internationally. Slow enough that people let him know – it started at a load time of 12+ seconds. This is largely due to it being https, international, and he has a heavy theme with 94 assets on the page. But just installing my […]

I’m looking at creating a free WordPress plugin to help you speed up the content on your website. A CDN (Content Delivery Network) can help to speedup the loading of your web page for your customers. The plugin will be free, with unlimited usage , for all Aussies. I’ll make sure it’s super easy to […]
Cloudflare was a great product, and we’ve been using it, and recommending it for a few years now. Alas, we are now recommending against it’s usage. Instead of speeding up website access, Cloudflare is often slower. It seems Cloudflare have made some changes that impact Aussies and Aussie websites. To be fair, it’s not every Aussie, […]
Imagine a super librarian with an enormous brain (complete with wire rimmed glasses). The super librarian can remember any page a user reads. Every word, every picture. If another person asks for the same page – the super librarian says ‘no worries, and reads out it from memory’. If they haven’t read that page before, […]
Intro To Expires Headers Lots of people are onto using Google’s pagespeed insight and gtmetrix, You’ll often get a results saying some URLs need an expires header. It will be dragging down your score, and you hate the big fat F … FAIL .. Loser score you get attributed. But what do these expires headers […]
WordPress hosting is a complicated subject. A lot of people are wooed with low monthly prices for shared web hosting. These accounts are not usually optimized for hosting WordPress web sites. The hosting company doesn’t tell you , but the resources available to running your website are limited. When these resources run out, your site […]
Even though WooCommerce is immensely popular it struggles when you add thousands of products. Here is how we optimize for our customers. We recently had a customer who plonked 85,000 products into their database (thanks woo commerce import pro !). Our first observation, the pages were slow, starting at about 1.4 seconds per page. Then […]
Error 502 can be a drama – you’ve most likely found it through reports from jetpack, uptime robot or similar. It comes and it goes – by the time you’ve logged the error – it’s gone, and your support guys say everything is fine. Here is what causes error 502 the default configuration of most […]
This is one of the real problem areas of VPS hosting. You’re given certain resources on your VPS plan to manage (CPU, RAM, disk) – managed or unmanaged – in the end it’s up to you to solve if things start to crumble performance wise. You’ll probably notice slow sites first, then uptime robot or […]
I just worked out another reason to use .com.au for aussie websites, instead of .com (I see that question now and again). The .com site has another 0.3-0.6 seconds DNS lookup time, before the web page even starts to load. I have a few customer’s sites I am accelerating, but still suffering slow DNS times. […]
Your VPS performance is a combination of CPU speed, memory, and disk performance. Then it’s divided by how oversold the hosting is, how noisy your neighbors are (other VPSs on the same server) It’s really hard to know if your getting what you paid for. This is a test of IOPS (Input Output per second) […]
So you have https enabled on your site, or you’re thinking about it. If you are selling stuff – obviously https is a must have. But if your WordPress site is largely marketing – there is the promise of better google SEO rankings for https sites, so more folk are moving to HTTPS. Before you […]

Not everyone understands what a cluster is. It’s when you have 2 or more servers running your website. Something like this: Your WordPress website would run across all the servers in the cluster. A cluster is used for 2 mains reasons – for increased performance and increased reliability. Increased Performance Usually if you want your […]
Our WordPress plugin will help you keep track of your website performance. It’s difficult to know how well your website is delivering its content to your users. Checking the site your self doesn’t work too well, because of caching. Even if you clear your cache the test is a little artificial. And how about how […]
A lot of people check a few things when they are choosing their webhosting, including : price – cheaper is cool support – like when something goes wrong, there is someone to help nothing – yes, I’ll accept the hosting that comes with my website build Not a lot of people consider how the performance […]
I hate slow web sites , and it’s a bit tough to actually know how a site is actually going. Things happen like its quick when you checked, and cached, but later when your not looking its slower, or the hosting guys server goes slower . I am thinking of making a WordPress plugin to […]
