Adding a Blog Page to My WordPress Website Impact on Speed?
Hi everyone,
I’m currently managing a custom packaging website and I’m considering adding a blog page to share insights, trends and tips about packaging. The idea is to enhance SEO and provide value to visitors. However, I’m concerned about whether adding a blog could impact my website’s speed or page load times.
For reference, my website is built on Magento: Packaging Houston.
Does anyone have experience with adding a blog to their Magento site? If so:
- Did you notice any significant changes in performance?
- Are there specific modules or extensions you’d recommend for a blog that balances functionality and speed?
- What are the best practices for optimizing a blog page to ensure it doesn’t slow down the rest of the site?
I’d appreciate any insights or advice on how to proceed while keeping my site performance intact. Thanks in advance for your help!
