Improving WordPress Speed by Removing CSS

Google’s PageSpeed ​​Insights benchmark says that a website is slow if the first content impression (FCP) is longer than 3 seconds. In contrast, a fast FCP is 1 second or less. Now more than ever, it’s vital to focus on page performance as much as content. Even a website with almost no SEO can attract a relatively larger audience if it prioritizes visible content first and makes a better first impression in terms of speed and performance.

What do you mean by stripping CSS?

The CSS code in WordPress is used by the Theme and the plugins, and if this code is too large it makes the website slow down and take a long time to load, that is why what we always do is Minify the CSS and compress it into a single file. But sometimes by doing this you can get a file of 400kb for example and it makes the website take more than 1 second to load this file.

What we do in Our service is to search through all the CSS files and separate the code fragments that are not used and put it all together in one file. This is a very tedious task and can lead to many problems if not done well, but we can reduce these 400kb to 20kb and that can mean a load of 1 second less.
