I'm going to share 5 tips and tricks on how to make your Wordpress Blog or Website to load faster and therefore get a better score from Google increasing its ranking potential. As we all already know, website's speed is a ranking factor for Google Search.

My solution is pretty simple and direct, I won't hide between the lines:
But to see your themes full potential you'll need a bigger and beefier server that can load a page up in milliseconds.
Some bigger themes will load pretty slow if not paired up with a decent hosting plan. I've done tests in the past with the same exact theme but on 2 different hosting plans. One of the plans was a shared hosting and the other was on a dedicated server. Each loaded properly and worked just fine, but the shared hosting setup loaded a lot slower since you aren't getting the full potential of the server. I think the dedicated server was at least twice as fast with it's load time than the shared hosting.
Now if you can't afford a dedicated server at $50+ a month then don't worry too much about putting your website on a shared hosting plan. Don't use Godaddy for your shared hosting because it feels like they have 500 websites on each server. Go with namecheap or t35hosting and you'll notice that your shared hosting setup will load much quicker than a crumby setup on Godaddy lol :D But to see your themes full potential you'll need a bigger and beefier server that can load a page up in milliseconds.
About the images. I've actually had clients make their designers create huge images for everything, like 5000x5000 and it would compress slightly for where it was showing, but it would still slow down the page load timing. After I reduced the image size to fit without compression the page was a bit speedier :D
Also, the CMS updates. You can set it to auto update and I would highly recommend that since Wordpress will only update if something needs to be optimized or fixed. So it's a good thing to have these updates go through automaticaly :D

Also as you know with themes it can be a minefield trying to find the right one. It can be a big step for your site. And it can be quite a pricey one as well. So when buying a WP theme one should check to make sure it comes with a refund policy first so that if you're not happy with it, if you discover that it simply slows your site down too much or comes with very hard to understand setup and usage instructions or it's not working how it you thought it might be even, you can get a refund for it so that you can get your money back and buy another one.
That said, this is happening less these days because developers are doing more to fully optimize their themes for speed as well these days. Although there are literally millions of WP themes out there still that haven't and the older they are the more installs they get too making your site less and less unique for every other site that installs and uses that theme on it!
Using a CDN with premium DNS is just a misnomer these days and no serious site should be running without it. I think most hosts provide this nowadays but it can seem quite daunting to set up but really isn't once you get into it.
