Case Study: Pomagajprvi.si

The loading speed of the Pomagajprvi.si website improved by 93.28%.

Pomagajprvi.si

The owners of the Pomagajprvi.si website were looking for a solution to make their site operate faster. The situation was truly concerning, as the website, hosted by a foreign provider (on a server in the USA), was loading for visitors from Slovenia in an average of a whopping 15 seconds. Such a high response time has an extremely negative impact on website traffic, as most people leave the site before it even fully loads.

We are pleased that the Pomagajprvi.si team decided to transfer their website to us. A significant improvement in operating speed was visible immediately after the transfer to our server, and then at NEOSERV we performed basic speed optimization. Now the total loading time of the website is just 1 second. Are you interested in how exactly we achieved a 93.28 percent acceleration with the transfer and optimization?

WEBSITE SPEED OPTIMIZATION PROCESS

ABOUT THE WEBSITE

Pomagaj prvi is a project of a young team of experts from various fields. The goal of the project is to bring knowledge of first aid to people in a simple and modern way.

The team consists of doctors, journalists, graphic designers, and economists. Together they create online content in the form of videos and e-books, with which they educate people about all elements of providing first aid.

Currently, there are four programs available on the Pomagajprvi.si website: 1. Master the First Aid for Novice Drivers, 2. Refresh First Aid and e-book, 3. CPR and AED, 4. First Aid e-book for Drivers. Additionally, there is also a quiz-style test on offer, which includes more than 100 questions about first aid.

After purchasing the selected program, the subscriber has access to the content for 30 days. During this time, video content and e-books are available, with which knowledge can be acquired at home.

1. SPEED WITH THE OLD PROVIDER

The operating speed of the Pomagajprvi.si website was concerning with the foreign hosting provider. Hosting on a server in the USA meant that response times for visitors from Slovenia were considerably longer, and the server was obviously also oversaturated or poorly configured. Measurements with the Google Chrome DevTools tool showed that the website was loading in 14.57 s. The PageSpeed Insights score (15) was accordingly low.

  • Time of the first request: 13.39 s
  • Loading time of the website: 14.57 s
2. SPEED IMMEDIATELY AFTER TRANSFER

After transferring the Pomagajprvi.si website to the NEOSERV server, a more than noticeable improvement was visible immediately. Even without testing, it was clear that the page was loading much faster. We, of course, substantiated this with tests: the Google Chrome DevTools web tool showed a total page loading time of 2.51 s, which meant an 82.77-percent acceleration in operation. The time to the first request (TTFB) improved significantly, but we knew that website speed optimization could yield an even better result.

  • Time of the first request: 1.31 s
  • Loading time of the website: 2.51 s
3. SPEED AFTER NEOSERV OPTIMIZATION

The basic speed optimization of the Pomagajprvi.si website included the installation of a WordPress plugin for effective page caching, optimization of the .htaccess file, and image optimization, where compression was used without visible losses in image quality. Especially with the caching settings, we achieved a significant acceleration of the time to the first request, which consequently is also reflected in the total page loading time. The total loading time, compared to the original time (14.57 s), is now lower by as much as 93.28%.

  • Time of the first request: 32 ms
  • Loading time of the website: 979 ms

Additional Explanations on Speed Optimization

  • Which web tools did you use to test the website's operating speed?

    For the purpose of testing website responsiveness, we used the following tools:

    • Chrome DevTools – a tool that is part of the Google Chrome web browser, primarily intended for web developers.
    • PageSpeed Insights – a Google corporation tool that analyzes the website, assesses the operating speed with a value from 0 to 100, and provides recommendations on how to optimize the site for speed.
  • Why do my results slightly differ from yours?

    Firstly, we advise you to perform the speed test multiple times and then extract an average value based on the results. If your results differ only slightly from ours, this is completely normal. However, if the deviations are larger, there are several possible reasons for the difference in results. Let's list some of the most likely:

    • changes have been made to the Pomagajprvi.si website (e.g., new images have been installed);
    • additional plugins have been installed, which require more requests;
    • a caching plugin has been disabled or another one used that performs worse;
    • a plugin for merging and minifying CSS and JS files has been disabled;
    • you are performing the speed test from outside Slovenia, so access times are longer.
  • Which plugins did you use to optimize the speed of the website?

    The speed optimization of the Pomagajprvi.si website included, among other things, the use of two plugins:

    • WP Super Cache (a plugin for efficient website caching);
    • Merge + Minify + Refresh (a plugin for merging and minifying CSS and JS files).
  • What would you advise the owners of the Pomagajprvi.si website if they wanted to further speed up the site?

    We primarily advise them to check the list of installed WordPress plugins and deactivate and delete all that are not needed. It also makes sense to delete inactive plugins.

    We also recommend optimizing the database, for which, for example, the plugin Optimize Database after Deleting Revisions is intended.
