Why WordPress Performance Optimization Is Important

Even if you were to ignore WordPress page speed, imagine you’re shopping online and the website takes more than a few seconds to load.
What do you do? Exactly. You click away.
Now think about your own site.
Every extra second it takes to load could mean losing potential customers or readers.
Speeding up wordpress site isn’t just about keeping people happy; it’s about survival.
A fast website ranks higher on Google, gets more conversions, and keeps visitors coming back.
So let’s roll up our sleeves and dive into how you can optimize your WordPress site with WP Adminify.
7 WordPress Performance Optimizations Using WP Adminify
Here’s a step-by-step guide to making your WordPress site blazing fast using WP Adminify’s features.
These aren’t just random tips; they’re battle-tested strategies that we’ve used to transform sluggish sites into speed demons.
1. Cut the Bloat: Minimize Unnecessary Scripts and Styles
Think of your site like a backpack.
The more junk you carry, the slower you move.
WP Adminify helps you lighten the load:
Remove Dashicons for Public Visitors:
Unless you’re a logged-in user, Dashicons serve no purpose. Turn them off for frontend visitors under WP Adminify > Performance.
Disable Emoji Scripts:
Emojis are fun, but the scripts they load? Not so much. Disable them to shave precious milliseconds off your load time.
Remove jQuery Migrate:
If your plugins don’t rely on outdated jQuery, disable this script to cut down on unnecessary processing.
2. Defer JavaScript for Faster Page Loads
JavaScript is essential, but it’s also a resource hog.
WP Adminify lets you defer parsing JavaScript to the footer, so your critical content loads first.
Just go to WP Adminify > Performance and toggle the "Defer Parsing JS to Footer" option. Boom, faster site.
3. Clean Up the Head Section: Less Clutter, More Speed
Your site’s head section often becomes a dumping ground for unnecessary elements. WP Adminify can help you declutter by:
Removing WordPress Generator Version and other metadata that serves no real purpose.
Disabling XML-RPC and limiting REST API access to authenticated users.
Cutting out redundant feed links to reduce server requests.
Head to WP Adminify > Security to activate these options.
4. Kick Gutenberg Scripts to the Curb (If You’re Not Using It)
Gutenberg is great for some users, but if you’re using a different page builder, its scripts and styles are just dead weight. WP Adminify allows you to:
Disable Backend Gutenberg Scripts for posts and pages.
Plus, Remove Frontend Gutenberg Styles to streamline CSS loading.
These settings are under WP Adminify > Performance.
5. Disable Embeds: Say Goodbye to Slow External Requests
Every time someone embeds a video or tweet, it adds extra requests to your site. With WP Adminify, you can:
Completely disable embeds to prevent external scripts from slowing down your site.
Stop REST API embed results from being processed unnecessarily.
Find this feature under WP Adminify > Performance.
6. Declutter Your Dashboard and Widgets
Unused widgets not only waste space but also consume resources. WP Adminify lets you:
Remove Dashboard Widgets to keep your admin area lean and mean.
Turn off Sidebar Widgets to avoid unnecessary queries and script loads.
To find this feature just go to WP Adminify > Productivity. Scroll to the bottom.
