Description
Kind of development: Customization of existing website
Description of requirements/features: I need to fix and speed up the loading time of my large news/magazine website without affecting post views.
Wordpress back end is slow.
There is a definite issue with social media sharing. Facebook for example does not feed through titles and feature images - every new post needs to be debugged and it takes a while.
For instance, a previous developer tried to speed up the site using cache but I lost post view counts.
My website is monetised by post views and therefor it is priority.
Extra services needed: Customization

Hi Chris, caching plugins do help with speed, but some fundamentals you should always consider is eg the optimisation of your images. Also, what are/were you using to count post views? Thanks

Joe P.26 Feb 2017Thanks Chris.
I just ran the site through the GTMetrix analysis page. Here's the results:

There are a few things there to try that don't involve caching - whilst caching is often a good tool it's not a universal panacea and I've seen the issue with losing page counts crop up before.
Anyway - have put a proposal in - thanks for the information.
Joe
