What you get

How Website speed optimization in Vancouver actually works

Concrete deliverables — no vague SaaS jargon. Each engagement is sized to your business and reviewed monthly.

Core Web Vitals

Fix LCP, INP, and CLS with real-user data — not just synthetic scores that drop under real traffic.

Caching & CDN

Server-level page cache, object cache, HTTP/2, and Cloudflare caching tuned for your stack.

Image & asset diet

Modern formats, responsive sizes, lazy loading, and font delivery cleanup that shrinks page weight.

Code-level fixes

Database, plugin, and template cleanup — the actual root causes most "speed plugins" cannot fix.

Before/after reports

Clear field-data reports so stakeholders can see what changed and why it matters.

Conversion impact

We prioritize the pages and interactions that drive revenue — not just the homepage.

Who it is for

A strong fit for

  • Shops losing conversions on slow mobile checkout
  • Sites flagged in Google Search Console for poor Core Web Vitals
  • Businesses where the site feels slow but no one can point to the cause
  • Marketing teams running ads where a slow landing page is wasting ad spend
  • WordPress sites bloated with page builders, stacked plugins, and heavy themes
  • Organizations whose SEO dropped after the Core Web Vitals became a ranking factor

Our process

How a speed engagement usually runs

  1. 1

    Baseline audit

    Capture real-user field data, Lighthouse runs on key pages, and a waterfall trace — so we know exactly what is slow and why.

  2. 2

    Prioritize fixes

    Rank fixes by impact vs. effort. Most engagements land the top 3 wins first — usually caching, images, and a handful of plugins or scripts.

  3. 3

    Stage & validate

    Apply changes on a staging clone, measure before / after, and verify nothing broke for editors or site search.

  4. 4

    Ship to production

    Release in small safe steps. Monitor real-user metrics to confirm improvements carry over into the field.

  5. 5

    Report

    Clear before / after dashboard — LCP, INP, CLS, TTFB, page weight — plus what changed and why.

  6. 6

    Keep it fast

    Optional monthly monitoring and a simple guardrail so the next plugin install or image upload does not undo the work.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does page speed actually affect conversions and SEO?
Yes — Core Web Vitals are a ranking signal in Google, and every extra second of LCP measurably drops mobile conversion. A 68% improvement in Skyline Ziplines was directly tied to both rankings and booking volume.
How much faster can my site get?
Most WordPress sites we take on improve LCP by 30–70% once caching, images, and code issues are addressed. Results depend on the starting point — we will give you a realistic target after the audit.
How much does a speed engagement cost?
Typical fixed-price audits start in the low four figures CAD, with implementation quoted based on scope. Simple WordPress sites are often fully optimized in one or two short engagements.
Will speed work break my site?
No — we work on staging, verify with tests, and only push when the field data confirms the improvement. Any change is reversible.
Do I need to rebuild the site?
Usually no. Most gains come from caching, images, database cleanup, and removing a few problem plugins. Rebuilds are only recommended when the current theme is genuinely past saving.
Can a caching plugin do all this?
It helps, but caching plugins cannot fix bloated themes, heavy plugins, oversized images, or missing CDN / server tuning. The real wins usually sit outside the plugin.
Do you work with WooCommerce and Shopify?
Yes — and we know where each platform is genuinely flexible vs. where theme changes are required.
Do you measure results in the field, not just Lighthouse?
Yes — we use real-user (CrUX) data wherever possible. Lighthouse is a starting point, not the deliverable.
