QUESTION
I'm reviewing a WordPress website that has been running for four or five years. The website has a selection of WordPress plugins that they use to optimize the site's page speed, and I have a suspicion that they have just added multiple over time without thinking about the others. The plugins are the following:
- Autoptimize: A plugin that concatenates scripts and styles and has some inline and defer CSS features. Good customization settings. Currently active on the site.
- Smush Image Compression: Resizes and compresses most popular image formats for websites. Currently active.
- Better WordPress Minify: Combines and minifies CSS and JS scripts. Active on the site but only used to minify JS files.
- PageSpeed Ninja: Another compression and minification plugin. Is active on the site.
So recently I ran the site through Page Speed Insights and far and away the most recommended suggestion to help the page load faster was server response times. In WordPress they recommend removing unused plugins and I want to reduce the optimization tools down to ideally 2 plugins. I was wondering if anyone here has any suggestions on possible pairings that might work (or have previously worked) well or whether it's just going to be easier to go through every plugin one by one, tinkering with the settings and running tests? I am open to alternate plugins and strategies. Any wisdom would be appreciated.

Answered 2019-Dec-06 at 14:29A standard bag of tricks would be W3 Total Cache for optimising server response times via caching and minification of CSS and JS.
Smush
is ok for image compression (although you will probably need premium for it to be completely useful) but a lot of the time you will find that a theme is not correctly configured to take full advantage of it (they don't offer different image sizes for different screen sizes).
I roll my own image optimiser that does everything locally but most people seem to say that EWWW Image Optimizer gives the most flexibility for free. not a personal recommendation.
You only really need the W3 Total Cache plugin and an image optimiser, beyond that you are into actually learning how to optimise a site properly as all of the other plugins tend to make a mess.

Install smushit
PHP requires the Visual C runtime (CRT). The Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 is suitable for all these PHP versions, see visualstudio.microsoft.com. You MUST download the x86 CRT for PHP x86 builds and the x64 CRT for PHP x64 builds. The CRT installer supports the /quiet and /norestart command-line switches, so you can also script it.
