Secret source:
- Select a WordPress default theme to be used for your website. Not to worry if it is ugly theme because Thrive Architect has many beautiful pages that you can use to enhance your WordPress default theme!
- Install Thrive Architect. Turn Your Ideas Into Pages with the Fastest, Truly Visual WordPress Page Builder. The company promised that and they delivered it.
- Delete all unused themes and plugins to reduce the load of your WordPress. Another tips to have a fast loading website is to keep your plugins less than 10 companies or providers. When you use the plugins from the same company or provider, their plugins are optimize for page speed loading already and you do not have to install another plugins to optimize them. You will create more loads to your WordPress for the codes already optimized. I do not use any SSL plugin or cache/image optimize plugins.
That is it. 3 simple steps to make your WordPress website load and run faster.
