7 tips for making your WordPress blog load as quickly as possible

Posted on November 9, 2021

Do you have a WordPress blog that is slow to load in a web browser?

If so, I recommend that you take steps to speed it up right away, for two important reasons:

Why you should (almost) always login to WordPress using an ‘Editor’ account

Posted on October 13, 2021

Is your blog powered by WordPress? If so, you should know that you have a virtual target on your back.
