Fast, stable, and looked after.

The WordPress Speed Fix — £795 fixed: measured diagnosis, vendor-neutral fixes, and both before-and-after numbers shown to you. Plus fault-finding, integrations and ongoing maintenance to keep you fast, secure and online.

A slow or broken site quietly costs you customers and rankings. I diagnose what’s actually wrong — rather than guessing — and fix it, whether that’s a performance problem, a plugin conflict, a server issue, or an integration that’s stopped talking. And if you’d rather not think about any of it, I’ll look after the site for you.

What does a WordPress speed optimisation service cost?

Mine is £795, fixed — the WordPress Speed Fix. Most providers won’t print a price; the ones that do range from £50 gig-work to £2,000+ agency projects. For £795 you get:
  • A measured diagnosis first — WebPageTest and real-visitor data, so the money goes at your actual bottleneck rather than someone’s favourite plugin.
  • The fixes the measurements justify — caching done properly, images served right, weight cut — applied and verified.
  • Both numbers, before and after. You see exactly what moved. The last shop I did this for went from a 2.9-second server response to 0.22 seconds.
  • An honest ceiling: if the diagnosis shows your theme needs rebuilding rather than tuning, I’ll say so — and the £795 credits in full toward that work.
Complex WooCommerce builds get a firm quote after the measure. No score-guarantee theatre — scores are lab estimates; your customers are the measurement that matters.

What happens when I get in touch?

A fixed sequence — measurement first, promises after.
  • Measure. WebPageTest plus real-visitor data against your site, so we find the actual bottleneck rather than guessing at one.
  • Diagnose. You get the findings and what I recommend. If the diagnosis shows your theme needs rebuilding rather than tuning, I say so here — and the £795 credits in full toward that work. Complex WooCommerce builds get their firm quote at this point.
  • Fix. The changes the measurements justify — caching done properly, images served right, weight cut — applied and verified.
  • Re-measure. Both numbers, before and after, shown to you.

What does performance work involve?

Finding the real bottleneck and removing it — slow server responses, oversized images, render-blocking scripts, bloated plugins. I work to Core Web Vitals and aim for fast server response times, so the site feels quick and Google rewards it.

My site’s broken — can you fix it quickly?

Usually, yes. Critical errors, broken layouts, plugin conflicts, white screens and server issues. I’ll diagnose it, tell you plainly what happened, and get you back online — then, if it’s worth it, harden things so it doesn’t recur.

What’s included in ongoing support?

  • Software and plugin updates, applied carefully.
  • Automated backups and security monitoring.
  • Performance kept in check over time.
  • A real person to ask when something needs doing.
