My guest today is Sondra Barker, She isn't just a social media agency owner/marketer but also a Food 🥂 and Travel 🌎 Connoisseur!

As you may expect, a large website with a lot of visual high-quality content comes with many challenges, and the chief challenge would be its speed! Sondra had discovered that her WordPress & Divi based website was not optimized at all and the page loading speed was slow even though she had good hosting and a good Caching plugin, so she embarked on this "long & painful" process of improving the speed and the overall page loading time of her website.
During this interview, Sondra shares her DIY website optimization experience and the approach she has taken - as a non-techie business owner - to make it 4 times faster! Brining it from an F to an A rating. We go over the good stuff as well as the mistakes to avoid when embarking on your website optimization journey.
