Hello there,

I am new to Google Cloud Platform and recently deployed a WordPress woocommerce website hosted on Google Cloud Compute Engine. the website isn't fast. When I check using Google PSI, I get 30 for mobile view and 55 performance for desktop view. Please anyone with recommendations on how to achieve 90 performance on both mobile and desktop? Thanks very much

Hi,

Here are some recommendations to achieve a higher performance score on desktop and in mobile for your website hosted on Google Cloud Compute Engine.

  • Optimize your website's images, large images can significantly slow down your website.
  • Enabling caching on your website can load much faster by saving files locally, browsers can easily access your website without having to request your site files multiple times.
  • Consider upgrading to a higher performance plan if your website does not meet the desired performance. A higher-performance VM on Google Cloud Compute Engine will help your website perform better.
  • Consider using Google Cloud CDN, it can help distribute your website's content globally, reducing the load time for users in different regions.
  • Lastly removing unnecessary data on your database will help improve performance.
