Hello WA,
It's been a great first seven months. This is my very first blog post in WA and I don't want to miss the opportunity to thank everyone who has helped me so far.
I've learned a lot, accomplished a lot, made friends, and enjoyed many aspects of affiliate marketing. I had never imagined in my life that someday I will do online business and I will be having my own website. Today I feel very happy about myself that I joined a wealthy affiliate.
The reason I was looking forward to the school holidays was totally different this year. I decided to work on my website since it's been 7 months and I feel I am far behind.
The agenda for these holidays was working on the following parameters:-
1. Complete the Training.
2. Optimize the images.
3. Improving Design.
4. Increasing the Speed.
I managed to complete the Affiliate Bootcamp training in the first 5 days of the holidays excluding the last part lol..(publishing 6 posts and 6 product reviews takes time..right.They are still in the process ).
I optimized the images using the plugin called 'Imagify'.
Yesterday, I Installed the plugin '10WEb Booster'. It optimized my website speed and performance by compressing CSS and JavaScript. This plugin has optimized my homepage and increased the website performance from 83% to 97% drastically. But the worst part is that it optimizes only 6 pages in the free version. But I would say it's worth using the free version as my website performance improved with that.
Today, I purchased Generate Press Premium, and literally, it solved both problems. Along with the design, It also increased the speed. Below are the Screenshots before and after installing the plugins 'imagify' and '10Web Booster'.

GeneratePress Premium is the lightweight theme out of all and it really helps in terms of website speed. In GeneratePress , I choose the 'Marketer' . In terms of website speed, GeneratePress Premium is the fastest theme.
Happy Holidays to Everyone and Merry Christmas.
Thank you,
