In this episode, we zoom out and tackle the principles and philosophy behind truly fast WordPress — with @remkusdevries , a WordPress Performance Specialist and educator for 20+ years.
Instead of “tweak this setting” or “install that plugin,” we’re talking about how to think about performance across the full stack: from DNS and TLS/HTTP to CDN/edge, hosting, WordPress runtime, database, caching layers, and the frontend. You’ll learn why speed is more than raw numbers — it’s perceived performance, interactivity, and layout stability — and how those map to real users and consequential business goals.
