What you get with PageSpeed Insights Optimisation
We test your key pages in PageSpeed Insights, find what is slowing them down and fix it. Here is what is included:
- Before and after PageSpeed Insights reports for up to five pages, on mobile and desktop
- Image compression, modern formats and correct sizing
- Render-blocking CSS and JavaScript tidied up and deferred
- Caching and unused plugin code reviewed
- Accessibility, best practice and SEO checks from the same report fixed where they fall in scope
Also, a real person at GBD does the work, in plain English, with nothing hidden.
Why a fast site wins more customers
Most visitors leave a page that takes more than a few seconds to show. Google also uses page experience as part of its ranking, so a slow site costs you both visitors and search visibility. PageSpeed Insights shows exactly where the time goes: oversized images, scripts that block the page and styles that are never used.
We work through that report line by line. Our own site went from a mobile score in the low sixties to 100 for Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices and SEO on both mobile and desktop this way, and we use the same method for clients. See the 100 case study. You see the numbers before we start and again when we finish.
What it takes to reach 100
A top score needs all of these in place together. This is the checklist we work through:
- A WordPress administrator login, plus access to your caching or CDN layer so changes reach Google’s test
- Full-page caching, long cache lifetimes and a correct cache purge
- Images in modern formats, sized for each screen, with set dimensions and the main image loaded first
- Fonts served from your own site and preloaded, so nothing jumps
- Scripts deferred and non-essential styles loaded after the page appears
- Unused plugin code removed page by page
- A lean page structure so the browser builds only what is on screen first
- Accessibility fixes: colour contrast, heading order, labelled controls, unique IDs and clear link names
- Clean SEO and best practice signals, and a page structure AI agents can read
- Repeat testing on mobile and desktop, because one run can be a fluke
What we change on your site
This is far more than installing a speed plugin. On our own site the work included:
- Converting and resizing images, and fixing images that downloaded twice
- Replacing heavy background photos with lightweight alternatives where the design allows
- Deferring jQuery and the scripts that depend on it
- Loading non-critical stylesheets after the page appears and removing unused inline styling
- Moving display fonts onto the site’s own server with matching fallbacks, bringing layout shift to zero
- Skipping off-screen sections until they are needed
- Fixing colour contrast, heading order, duplicate IDs and labels
- Setting cache lifetimes and refreshing the host’s edge cache after each change
Some changes affect how a page looks, for example a smaller hero image on phones. We agree those with you first.
Keeping it fast
Speed drifts as plugins update and new pages are added. PageSpeed Insights Maintenance is £24.99 ex VAT per month and checks and fixes it for you.
Does every page need testing?
PageSpeed Insights tests one page at a time, but most fixes are shared across the site. We test one page of each type, such as your home page, a service page, a product, a blog post and the shop, so the shared improvements carry across the rest.
Who it suits
Businesses whose WordPress or WooCommerce site feels slow, scores poorly in PageSpeed Insights or has lost ground in Google. It also suits anyone about to start SEO or advertising who wants the site to be ready first.
What we need from you
- Your website address and a WordPress administrator login
- The pages you most want tested, such as your home page and top services
We will tell you if anything is missing before we start.
Good to know
Scores vary a little between tests, and some third-party scripts such as chat widgets or ad tags cannot be changed. The score you reach depends on your theme, plugins, content and third-party scripts, so we explain anything that limits the result before we start and show you the before and after.

PageSpeed Insights Optimisation: common questions
How much does PageSpeed Insights Optimisation cost?
PageSpeed Insights Optimisation costs £119 ex VAT, billed one-off. Orders under £500 are paid in full today. Packages and orders of £500 or more pay a 60% deposit to start, and the 40% balance falls due when we finish or after a month, whichever comes first.
Will you get me a score of 100?
We aim for the highest scores your site can reach and show you the results. We cannot promise 100 on every page, because some scripts belong to third parties and test results vary slightly each time.
Does it help my Google rankings?
Page speed is one of several things Google considers, and it clearly helps visitors stay and enquire. It works best alongside good content and local SEO.

WordPress and WooCommerce sites are our specialty. Tell us about other platforms and we will say honestly what is possible.
