<p>Site speed and performance optimization don’t have to be a complex task. With Solid Performance, simply install and activate, and the plugin will incrementally create static versions of each URL of your website for an instant performance boost.</p>
<h4>How Solid Performance Increases Your Site Performance and Page Speed ✅</h4>
<p>You’re busy, and you need to spend time building your website. In order to build well you need a solid foundation. Installing Solid Performance lets you optimize your site performance right away and start building sooner and faster without having to spend time configuring dozens of options.</p>
<p>A solid caching solution should not cause breakage with your favorite plugins. Solid Performance comes out of the box with smart plugin exception rules for pages that have dynamic content created by these plugins:<br />
* WooCommerce<br />
* GiveWP</p>
<p>With these smart defaults and page caching in place automatically, you can focus your time and energy on building and enhancing your website instead of struggling through dozens of caching settings.</p>
<h4>What is Caching and how does Solid Speed leverage it ❓</h4>
<p>There are several different types of caching</p>
<p>Solid Performance focuses exclusively on page caching, grabbing the HTML of your WordPress URLs and storing that in a secure directory. Then, when your visitors arrive at your site, the browser doesn’t need to run through PHP or hit your database again, it just serves up the desktop or mobile (if enabled) versions of static HTML, CSS, and JS files fast and simply.</p>
<h4>How Page Caching Benefits Your Website Performance 🚀</h4>
<p>As soon as you activate Solid Performance, your site will get an immediate boost. You’ll see benefits like these:<br />
🚀 Improved site performance (content delivery speed)<br />
🚀 Reduced drag on server load<br />
🚀 Measurable, quantifiable stats: lower bounce rates and higher conversion rates</p>
<p>When a site developer or manager is able to improve site performance for a client (for example), they are able to provide improved SEO results and meet a widely accepted expectation that well-run sites do not have slow download or content delivery times.</p>


Solid Performance – Your No-Code Caching, Performance, & Page Speed Solution


Disclaimer: I do work for StellarWP. BUT, this plugin did speed up multiple sites I've installed it on, including my personal site devin.org



I suggest it for a "solid" page caching solution


Installed and it's like woah, fast fast fast

Solid Performance is a no-code solution for increasing the page performance of your WordPress website.

<p>Most WordPress sites load unnecessary CSS and JavaScript files, making pages slower than they should be. <strong>Strip the “fat” first and get a faster website!</strong></p>
<p>Faster page load = Happier Visitors = More Conversions = More Revenue 🙂</p>
<p>When using a theme and multiple plugins, many styles and scripts are loaded on every page, even when they are not needed. Preventing unnecessary assets from loading makes your website faster and the HTML output cleaner.</p>
<p>For example, a contact form plugin may load its CSS and JavaScript files on every page, even if the form is only used on the contact page.</p>
<p>Asset CleanUp scans your page and shows all loaded assets. You can then unload the ones that are not needed, reducing page bloat and improving load speed.</p>
<p>The plugin works best alongside a caching plugin or CDN (e.g. Cloudflare) for maximum performance.</p>

Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster

This plugin has to be activated on every website I create (it will be 3-digit count now)

Must have plugin


It does not remove unnecessary code from CSS, only complete CSS files can be disabled. This also helps quite a lot.


Good enought


I knew this plugin for a long time but didn't realize how good it is. I used this recently to speed up a stubborn website and now all my websites are way faster and better, saving lots of unnecessary loads every page. you got to understand it first to use it in a best way. I no longer need paid WP Rocket, even standard catch is enough for my websites. Purchased pro and website speed is all green for Desktop, way better on Mobile. Absolutely awesome.


This is what I needed to do to speed up


This Plugin is great! Absolutely useful!


Great Plugin!


Sitedeki hız sorunun eklentilerden kaynaklı olduğunu sanıyordum. Aslında sabit kaynaklardaki cssler nedeniyle sorun yaşadığımı görmeme yardımcı oldu. 70 tane Hardcoded (non-enqueued) Styles & Scripts küçük basit css dosyası sayfa açılırken siteye ızrıdap yaşatıyordu. Şimdi bunların ne olduğunu biliyorum. Pro versiyonla kolayca tüm siteden engelledim. Ancak artık onların kaynağını bulup silme zamanının da geldiğini görüyorum. Kaynakları bulmak için tüm site dosyalarını indirip içerisinden aradığım kodu bulup gereksiz css komutlarına elveda diyeceğim. Pro versiyona kaynağını iletme imkanı da sunulursa harika olacaktır. 


Sitedeki hız sorunun ne olduğunu bulmamda yardımcı oldu

Great

Make your website load FASTER by stopping specific styles (.CSS) & scripts (.JS) from loading. It works best with a page caching plugin / service.
