PagePipe Site Tuning Services for Speed

Instead of band-aid approaches, we drill down to the root cause of your slow site. This is origin optimization. Also known as site tuning. To do this, we analyze site components:

Hosting
Theme
Plugins
Scripts and third-party services.
Images and media library.
We minimize globally loading plugin effects.
