About the WordPress speed optimization course for Elementor websites

A slow website loses visitors and loses rankings on Google. This WordPress speed optimization course is for anyone who already has a site built with Elementor and wants it to load fast, on desktop and on mobile.

You start with a site diagnosis, install only the plugins that make a difference and tackle the three most common culprits: heavy fonts, uncompressed images and poorly configured hosting.

This course is also part of the WordPress + Elementor Program [3 courses in 1], which combines three courses into one program.

What you will learn

  • Why optimization improves the visitor experience and your position on Google
  • Diagnose your site and find what is slowing it down
  • Choose and configure the essential optimization and caching plugins
  • Adjust the basic WordPress settings from the start
  • Cut load time by handling your website fonts
  • Compress and optimize images without losing quality
  • Configure your hosting to help with speed
