How Do You Keep Your CMSMS Sites Clean and Fast Over Time?

Post by racuda »

Hey everyone,

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about long-term maintenance and performance in CMS Made Simple projects. It’s easy to launch a site that’s fast and clean, but over time things can start to slow down—especially as clients request more features or content grows. :-\ :-\

What are your go-to practices for keeping your CMSMS websites lean and speedy months (or even years) after launch?
Every turn on the Escape Road is a choice — speed through the chaos or crash into it. The only way out is forward.

- use only CMSMS modules you really need
- host the webcontent/database on SSDs
- optimize images (webp/avif) before uploading to CMSMS
- follow best practices, e.g. https://pagespeed.web.dev/
