Hey Chris, it's clear that you don't have a deep understanding of website performance and the factors that can impact it. While it is true that WordPress has the potential to offer great performance, this can only be achieved if you use the right theme or page builder. In your case, it seems that your site has decent performance on desktop, but your mobile pagespeed scores are very poor. Mobile pagespeed is becoming increasingly important, as more and more users access the internet from their smartphones. Achieving good performance on mobile can be more challenging than on desktop, so it's important to prioritize it.
It's funny that you would make fun of WordPress without understanding the full picture. A simple website like yours should be able to achieve good performance with the right setup and optimization. I would recommend doing more research and gaining more experience before making assumptions about WordPress or website performance in general.
My biggest problem with WordPress is that every plugin requires a subscription now.
ОтветитьWhat are those graphics card boxes in the background?
ОтветитьPeople talking about slow websites with WordPress probably has never built a website with Gutenberg with a theme like Astra, for example. The page speed test results are similar to that of a static website. As for WordPress security, yeah it's weak., not because it's the fault of WordPress, rather the plug-ins that rely on WordPress sucks. The plugin publishers don't patch up their bugs often enough.
Those who complain about WordPress being slow need to build their website out with Gutenberg. Stay away from page builders like Elementor where their place in WordPress is fading away.
Where WordPress truly shines is the plethora of plugins that is unmatched compared to a static website.
Wordpress definitely needs some skill to configure properly but it can be done
my wordpress site loads in about 1-2 seconds and when cloudflare caches it that can go as low as 200ms
I am using a Thrive Themes for every WP needs. Basically lets you get rid of nearly all the other plugins. They focus on speed whether we talk website speed or speed of your work. My sites are all very fast on gtmetrix too but that also thanks to a cloudflare and image cdn. I understand what are you suggesting with this video and must agree. However I found my way around it and now I just make sites fast and they are static, too. I think its really about finding the style and the way. Once you understand what is actually WP downside and you eliminate it, the path is clearer. Then you find yourself rather making your own themes then buying them and you avoid those crappy frameworks, theme options, different scripts and junk. I believe once you find out how you gonna make it, you will stop messing around with tutorials, plugins, themes off the internet and learning all the frameworks. You just build it with the ones you know well - this is where I recommend Thrive Themes or similar. Something you can rely on and use for all purposes, without jumping around from theme to theme, plugin to plugin.
ОтветитьI went with one of the third options, NameCheap recently, but I’ve heard good things about WebFlow, which is less expensive than SquareSpace but more than NameCheap per month or year.
ОтветитьBest of both worlds: i love the wordpress templates. But i generate static html out of it. Did that 10 years ago using a “spider” plugin in firefox or chrome.
When you how to optimize pictures or use jpegmini or similar you reduce load times. Cheapo and easy and ultra fast and mega secure.
Hey, which distro is this?? Thanks!
ОтветитьYour Website got 50 Points on PageSpeed Insights and you're talking about performance LMAO
Ответить"WordPress is slow" Bruh it depends on how you work with WordPress 😂.
ОтветитьFor me Wordpress is ok, BUT third party themes could be a nightmare because of a different PHP version compared with yours, the docs can be confusing, they depend on many plugins to function, etc... Personally I prefer to develop sites on Rails or Sinatra.
ОтветитьOur website is static generated using github and netlfiy. We also push media from AWS cloudfront CDN. Our cloudmetrix score is A: Performance
100%: Structure 97%: Largest Contentful Paint 311ms: Total Blocking Time 0ms: Cumulative Layout Shift 0.01 =) I had no idea before this video, but was pleasantly surprised. We offer the same deal for our customers who want simple brochure style websites...super cheap to host, super quick to deploy and secure. But yes the downside is they can't make their own changes - but we are upfront with them about that, and our hosting fee includes basic changes.
Image Peter McKinnon sit down and code his website...yeah, not gonna happen
ОтветитьYou can't build complicated websites by yourself at almost no cost without using software like wordpress.
ОтветитьAka. The anti-sponsor video.
I loaded your website and its load time is glorious. Sincerely an appreciative web dev.
WordPress is so popular because it's fundamentally free and anyone (with word processor level skills) can use the admin backend to create content. For some simple brochure sites, I use a wget bash script to mirror static pages and use them as the main site and keep the real WP on my LAN. WP has its place. Try to add a simple contact mail form to a static site without involving 3rd party sites, let alone comments and ecommerce!
ОтветитьAnother huge problem with wordpress is it makes it very difficult to mirror a website because of the PHP bullshit. A few of the "all rights reserved" crowd may think it's a feature, but this means the website and the potentially useful information it carries will be a mess to archive with missing assets. It really should be as easy as 'wget -m' to download a website. If you run a website to spread useful technical or other information, please don't use Wordpress, Blogspot and all that crap.
ОтветитьOne of the principle reasons to use Wordpress are its plugins. It offers features and logic, i.e. extensibility. That's very compelling. If your content is static, a static page regenerator makes a lot of sense. Otherwise, the slower page load speed in Wordpress is a reasonable compromise to gain the ability to have it do so much other stuff.
ОтветитьAll right for static sites.
But even brochure sites today need enough back end for customer reviews/testimonials.
WordPress is plain stupidly slow. And so many faulty functionalities, never mind the security holes.
All fixed framework back ends and CMSs have performance drawbacks.
Need an adjustable and headless CMS and a tunable modular back end. Nice if Netlify went free on small business sites too - but they won't 😁
