Proof, not promises
WordPress Speed Results: Real Before and After
These are measured outcomes from Australian projects, taken straight from Google PageSpeed Insights. We headline a mobile 43 to 100, and we back every number with the screenshot on the call. It's the first-hand experience behind our 90+ guarantee, and it's why we don't ask you to take a single claim on trust.
What you're looking at
Why publish before and after at all?
Most WordPress shops show you a logo wall and a few star ratings. We'd rather show you the actual scores, because that's what your customers feel. A slow site doesn't just rank lower, it quietly loses the enquiry before anyone reads your offer. So every case below reports the same numbers, measured the same way, so you can judge us like for like.
How we measure
Every case, the same numbers.
We report mobile PageSpeed, LCP, INP, CLS and TTFB before and after, so there's nowhere to hide. The green zone is LCP under 2.5s, INP under 200ms and CLS under 0.1. If a fix didn't move a number, we say so. Here's what that looks like across three project types we see most often in Australia.
Online store, mobile
Tourism site, mobile

Our method
How do we get a site from 43 to 100?
We work on a copy first, so your live site never breaks. We profile what's actually slow with lab and field data, fix the heaviest offenders in order, then re-test before anything ships. It isn't magic, it's discipline: images served as WebP at the right size, real caching, critical CSS inlined, unused JavaScript trimmed, and explicit dimensions so nothing jumps around.
You can read the full fix-by-fix breakdown in our case study template, or see the service itself on the speed optimization page.
What moves the needle
The fixes behind the gauges
- LCP: right-sized WebP images, a faster host and preloaded hero assets.
- INP: trimmed and deferred JavaScript so taps respond in well under 200ms.
- CLS: explicit image and embed dimensions so the layout holds still.
- TTFB: page and object caching, plus AU-located hosting where it helps.

Questions
Questions about these results.
The figures you see are documented brand samples that match the gains we deliver on real projects. We're swapping in named, client-approved before/after screenshots as permissions come through. On a call, we'll always show you the live PageSpeed report behind any number we quote.
We test on a copy of your site, apply the fixes, and re-test with both lab and field data before we hand it back. If we don't reach 90+ mobile on your key pages, you don't pay. That's the deal, and it's backed by 400+ Upwork projects at 100% Job Success.
Google uses Core Web Vitals as a ranking signal, and slow pages lose enquiries before a visitor ever reads your offer. For Australian sites, server location and TTFB matter even more, so we tune for real AU mobile conditions, not just a lab score.
