Frequently asked questions
Common questions about WooCommerce performance optimisation. If you have a specific question not covered here, feel free to get in touch.
Improvements vary by current store condition. Typically see 40-70% reduction in page load times. Checkout performance often improves significantly. I provide estimates after initial audit based on your specific bottlenecks.
No. All optimisations are tested to ensure visual quality and functionality remain intact. Product images maintain quality, and all features including cart, checkout, and account pages continue working correctly.
Most optimisation projects take 1-2 weeks depending on store complexity and product count. Larger stores with many products or complex customisations may take longer.
Yes. Checkout optimisation is a key focus area. This includes reducing unnecessary fields, optimising payment gateway integration, improving session handling, and streamlining the overall flow.
Yes. I implement caching strategies and optimisations specifically designed to handle traffic spikes. This includes object caching, page caching for non-dynamic content, and CDN configuration.
Yes. I can set up ongoing monitoring with alerts for performance regressions. Regular reports help ensure your store maintains optimal performance over time.
