The boss has gone mad! iGuRu.gr: Find the fastest news site in Greece and win the site :). Yes, maybe the title is after all clickbait, but you certainly won't find a faster Greek WordPress news site. For the sake of truth at the end of the publication we list some Results.
To get this speed on all of the following machines we had to:
-
- Remove almost all original images
- minimize the size of scripts and css
- remove all unnecessary code PHP, essentially rewriting the genesis child we use
- remove any unnecessary code from the css of plugins and theme
- use a trusted and fast server
- carefully select each plugin based on speed
- changes to the autoptimize code
- decrease in requests of the first page (9 only)
- Repairs for Best First Contentful Paint (FCP) and DOM Content Loaded (DCL)
- remove each ad from the original (because the speed counts more)
Let's see the results from GTmetrix, PageSpeed, pingdom and webpagetest:
GTmetrix
PageSpeed Mobile
PageSpeed Desktop
Pingdom
and iGuRu.gr on WebPageTest
So if you still find a faster page, we give you the site together with Dimitris .... :)
