It’s first time for me, landing on your blog. I’ve start reading your posts recently and I am really enjoying it. Nice!
I think WP-Super Cache is important, I used it to make my blog load faster.

Hello Charity:

Since WP optimization plugins “All in One SEO Pack” and “SEO Title Tag” are no longer supported and maintained, I did a Google search “wordpress optimization” where I found you (ranked #9)… but read yours 1ST. Also appreciate the referral to “YSlow”, “Firebug” and “Clean Options.”

Thank you for a clean, well-written optimization article. :)

Fine resources. I think yslow can be a great tool for me.

Lauren – I can’t wait to see! I’m knee deep in the midst of reorganizing/redesigning basically everything on my site, and losing patience with myself over it too I might add. ;) I know you’ve been working on your redesign for a while too – I’m sure it’ll be gorgeous and worth the wait.

p.s. I just weeded out 120+ tags down to 60! It wasn’t until 2.5 when I saw them all in a list that I even realized I had so many!

Randa – Thanks for the correction. When a post sits for a while before anyone speaks up about something broken, I always wonder how many people click but don’t bother reporting it. Not very helpful to anyone so I’m glad you told me :)

Thanks for this Charity – esp. for the YSlow info (though your link is broken…) I was looking for something specifically like that to diagnose a client site, so I appreciate it.

Bookmarked on del.icio.us! I just updated WP, too, and going through and optimizing code sounds like a great idea. Thanks for the info, Charity! I want to definitely update categories and add tags to my posts. Gonna take a bit of time, but I’d like to have it ready by the time I launch my new theme (don’t get too excited, it’ll probably be a while!)

Wow, I didn’t have any idea about deactivated plugins being a problem. I will go and delete all the ones I’ve decided not to use any more. Thanks.
