I carried out full maintenance, development and translation of TM Janeda's WordPress-based website, a structural engineering practice. When the collaboration began, the site was extremely slow.
The first page load took 10-15 seconds, which significantly harmed both the user experience and search engine optimisation.
Through targeted performance optimisation, I managed to cut the loading time drastically, and achieved this even though the site still runs on an outdated PHP version and less-than-ideal hosting. Once the hosting is switched and PHP is updated, speed can be improved even further, but even on the current infrastructure the site now offers a fast, modern user experience.
After the speed work, I also started on search engine optimisation. In the first phase, based on Search Console data and keyword research, I reworked the titles, meta descriptions and main headings of the main and project pages, and worked keyword-focused sentences matched to real searches into the copy. The results are currently being measured, and the next phase will build on them.
Work carried out:
- WordPress maintenance and updates
- Custom development
- Multilingual translation
- Search engine optimisation (SEO), phase 1: results being measured
Drastic speed optimisation (10-15 s → a fraction of a second)
