When optimizing a WordPress website, I don't just focus on themes and plugins—I also review the settings running behind the scenes.
Some of the settings I commonly optimize include:
✅ Disable XML-RPC (when it's not needed)
✅ Disable unnecessary Emojis
✅ Limit Post Revisions
✅ Enable GZIP Compression
✅ Remove unnecessary Query Strings (where appropriate)
✅ Disable RSS Feeds if they're not being used
These small tweaks can help improve:
⚡ Website performance
🔒 Security
📈 SEO readiness
😊 User experience
Performance isn't about one big change—it's about making lots of smart improvements that work together.
