In the following, we will discuss each of the mentioned items in detail.

1. WordPress database optimization

Everything you need for your website is stored in the website database. WP-OPTIMIZE plugin optimizes your website database by removing all unnecessary items and recovering lost space. You must be asking what actions the WP Optimize plugin takes in order to optimize the WordPress database?

• Delete all unnecessary data
• Compress and configure MY SQL tables with the push of a button
• Fine control over which optimizations you want to perform.
• Automatic weekly cleaning
• Preparing automatic backup through the updraftplus plugin
• Display statistics and database status
• Database space management: When you edit the information of a post or a page, the WP-Optimize plugin automatically saves the modified database. If you edit your posts in short intervals, the edited items will be saved as a separate copy and will take up a lot of space. WP-Optimize removes unnecessary edits and increases speed and efficiency by freeing up space. It also removes all spam comments from the database.
• Check database tables: WP-Optimize will report you exactly which of your database tables have wasted space. It helps you keep your website fast and efficient.
• Continuous database monitoring: After WP-Optimize is activated, you can create a schedule to clean up unnecessary data on a scheduled basis.

2. Compression of images in WordPress

Uploading photos with large speed results in a significant slowness of the site. WP-Optimize has a tool to compress images, so it converts large site images that take a long time to load into compressed files. It allows you to compress images in different formats such as PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP, and TIF up to 5 MB. This plugin allows you to increase the speed of the site without losing the quality of the site images.

• Mass compression: the possibility of compressing several images at the same time
• Intelligent compression algorithm: delivers images with the least quality loss.
• Restore Originals function: Allows you to restore your original images whenever needed.
• Automatic compression function: automatically compresses the images added to the site.
• EXIF Data-Keeping: Image information is preserved even after compression.

3. Caching site pages

Depending on your settings, the page cache feature can make the biggest difference in increasing the speed and performance of your website. Caching involves storing dynamic site data in a temporary storage location so that it can be retrieved at a moment’s notice and is always a reliable method for loading site pages at high speed. Caching the site through the wp-optimize plugin is provided in the shortest possible time with minimal settings:

• Caching before loading the page: To ensure that the caching functionality is done well before loading the site.
• Gzip compression: compression of javascript, css and html files to reduce site loading time
• Device-specific caching: to ensure that an optimized version of the site is always presented for different devices and screens.
• Advanced cache deletion rules: You can cache anything, such as specific urls or cookies, except for logged in users.
• Browser cache: Caching site information in visitors’ browsers reduces the number of requests and increases loading speed.

4. Compress and combine CSS and JavaScript codes

In addition to the three main features, one of the most important main features of the WP-Optimize plugin is compressing and combining CSS and JavaScript codes and optimizing WordPress codes. Combining and minifying these files reduces the number of requests to your server and reduces their size. Combined with Gzip storage and compression, page load times are reduced. If you have any questions, you can read the tutorial on how to activate gzip in WordPress . The minify feature also enables you to delay the loading time of css and javascript. This will cause unnecessary items to be loaded after the main page is loaded, and as a result, the speed of the site will increase dramatically. Also, this topic is effective in increasing the score of site analysis tools.
