Woocommerce can be viewed by many as a slow alternative to other ecommerce platforms. But if you take a few actions and optimize its speed, you can make it as fast as the top platforms.

Speed up the Woocommerce backend

When running a Woocommerce store, the backend is as important as the frontend. Every query from customers navigating the store needs to be fast, and it depends if you have a healthy database.

Cleaning up the database of junky queries is the first step in making the database healthier. You can use Advanced Database Cleaner.

To identify high-resource usage assets in the backend of Woocommerce, install the Query Monitor plugin and check for plugins using many resources, or doing many tasks/actions. High resource usage will appear with red warnings.

CodeProfiler also analyzes your backend performance and provides insights from each plugin installed.

Another way to solve backend issues is by using 3-party plugins for crucial parts of your store.

SuperSpeedyPlugins offers three products to speed up and scale these much-needed features:

  • Super Speedy Search:  fast and relevant search results.
  • Scalability Pro: key indexes to speed up slow queries.
  • Super Speedy Filters: WooCommerce filtering plugin.

Use a CDN for images

CDNs(content delivery networks) host your assets on their servers, which are distributed across the world, and deliver them to users using their closest server, making the loading time faster.
