Fast Sites Rank Higher.
Slow Sites Cost Money.

Google uses Core Web Vitals as a ranking factor, and research by Google and Deloitte shows every extra second of load time can reduce conversions by up to 7%. We diagnose your performance issues and fix them — measurably.

What We Optimise

Performance Optimisation Services

Core Web Vitals

LCP, FID, and CLS brought into the green. We identify and fix what Google measures — improving your SEO ranking and user experience simultaneously.

Image Optimisation

Next-gen formats (WebP, AVIF), responsive srcsets, lazy loading, and compression. Images are typically your largest performance bottleneck.

CDN Configuration

Static assets served from edge nodes closest to your users. Reduces server load and slashes time-to-first-byte for visitors across SA and beyond.

Database Optimisation

Slow queries identified and optimised. Indexes added, bloat removed, and query caching configured for data-driven applications and e-commerce.

Caching Strategy

Full-page caching, object caching, and browser caching configured correctly. Your server only does the work once per request, not once per visitor.

PageSpeed 90+ Target

Our performance engagements target PageSpeed Insights scores of 90+ on mobile and desktop. We measure before and after so you can see the improvement.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What actually gets optimised?

Images, caching, code minification, lazy loading, and the Core Web Vitals that Google measures — the things that make pages feel instant.

How do I know it worked?

We measure before and after, and report the numbers. Speed work should be provable, not taken on faith.

Why does speed matter so much?

Two reasons: Google uses Core Web Vitals as a ranking factor, and research by Google and Deloitte shows every extra second of load time can cost conversions. Fast sites rank better and sell more.

Is this a once-off or ongoing?

Either. A once-off optimisation project fixes the current state; the R199/month service keeps performance from degrading as content and plugins accumulate.
