Now head to your WordPress dashboard and install the plugin, by uploading it to your website. 00:00 Intro 00:27 Install my plugin installer 02:30 W3 total cache W3 Total Cache is a caching plugin that will improve drastically your page speed.
W3 Total CacheAnd in summary caching works like this. Let’s say a user arrives to your website’s home page. Usually WordPress would make a request to the database to show the content to the user, but instead this plugin creates a static HTML page of your home page beforehand, and shows this to the user. Since there are no calls to the database it’s much faster to load. So let me show you in the tutorial how to adjust the settings for the best performance. 05:19 Resmush.it
reSmush.it : the only free Image Optimizer & compress pluginThe second plugin is resmush.it, it’s an image optimization plugin that will compress your images automatically when you upload your image into WordPress. Smaller images mean faster page load! 07:39 Yoast SEO
Yoast SEOThe third plugin is Yoast SEO, and this plugin will optimize your website so that search engines like Google can find & index your website easier. It has all the essential SEO features included so you can start ranking on Google search. 09:13 Updraftplus
UpdraftPlus WordPress Backup PluginThe third essential plugin is Updraftplus, which is a backup plugin. You really need to set up automatic backups because you never know when something goes wrong on your site. The best part is that you can connect the plugin to Google drive or dropbox and everything is saved in a remote location, for extra peace of mind! 11:47 Akismet anti-spam
Akismet Spam ProtectionThe next must-have plugin is Akismet anti-spam, and if you allow comments on your website this plugin will prevent all the spam making into your inbox. 12:55 Limit login attempts
Limit Login Attempts ReloadedThe last plugin is creatively called “limit login attempts”, but basically it can prevent brute force attacks against your site. Because it limits the login attempts to your website. Extra mentions WPS Hide login – this plugin will hide your /wp-admin page by creating it on a new URL. This way only you know how to reach this page. https://wordpress.org/plugins/wps-hide-login/ Better WP security – It has multiple security features that you can utilize for free! https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-wp-security/
Sick! I have all of them already and I think I found out about the Total Chache from you, Robert. Thanks for the vid 🙂
Oh that’s awesome. Yeah these are the essentials in my view. After these it depends on the type of site you have. For webshops you need some set of plugins, for blogs another, and so on.
Do you think I missed any plugins in this video that should be in the list?
@tipswithpunch iis it time to make essential plugins for webstore ?))
Great tips. I would love you to recommend your favorite shipping/mailing plugin, and show how it works best. Also, if you have a favorite image carousel plugin, that would be great to hear about.
Great to hear that! I’ll be honest I haven’t worked that much with shipping plugins.
Regarding the image carousel, there are some plugins that can do it nicely, but… the industry recommendation is not to use a carousel at all. Here is some info why: https://cxl.com/blog/dont-use-automatic-image-sliders-or-carousels/
Thank you

Friend please I’m having a little problem, I have a problem in signing up in freenom , why I can’t sign up in freenom
Hey Joel, try to see if this video helps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubBCeUNHzPs
hi sir i check your video its very nice but when i follow the same steps my website speed page doesn’t work i dont know why ? can you help me about this please
Hi Oliver, try to reload your page few times. The way cache works is that it’s generated when someone visits the page for the first time after cleaned cache. And then run the test tool.
If that doesn’t help then check in the test tool that it shows that you have browser cache enabled (on most assets)
@tipswithpunch thanks for the reply i appreciate it. do you have a video how to build a website step by step with a good structure for a website?
What do you mean with structure in this case? Just like the page layouts etc?
I have an in-depth video that starts from scratch and builds a website with wordpress: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBv6J-X3cXM
But I feel like the structure of the page really depends on your field and brand.
What is the best newsletter subscriber plugin for WordPress with gdpr ?
do you already have a email marketing service?
I think depending on what you have, some of them have dedicated WP plugins
@tipswithpunch for woocommerce
@Razva Cos MailChimp ?
Hi. I was wondering if there was a plugin or a way to make visitors choose layouts or designs they want for their website pages from my website. The layouts or designs will be provided by me for visitors to choose from. Thanks.
not that I know of, but you might want to look into that. You can create a plugin for specific theme (or page builder) that would do that. But I’m not sure you can create a plugin that will create exactly same demo site on any theme.
@tipswithpunch thanks bro

Do you have cache plugin? If you do, clean the cache, then you should see updates.
