Optimizing your WordPress site ensures you get the most out of our cloud-native infrastructure.

Recommended Practices

  1. Go to my.websitely.com and login to your account.
  2. Navigate to your site’s Performance tab in the Websitely dashboard.
  3. Enable Server-Side Caching and CDN to offload requests from your cloud nodes.
  4. Regularly audit your plugin list—remove any that are inactive or redundant to keep your cloud environment lean.
  5. Compress all media files before uploading to maintain fast page load speeds across the multi-server network.

Best Practices Summary

  • Never use the “admin” username.
  • Maintain a consistent backup schedule.
  • Keep your environment clean by deleting unused themes and plugins.
