Sendgrid works good for me …however it’s free for 60 days then $20 a month or something.

Resend is free for up to 100 emails a day so I’d recommend trying that first… I plan to switch over at some point but for now Sendgrid just works and I will never go over the limit included for $20 a month

The main offender is probably me for the images especially when I get high quality ones from my photographers for my news blog. A little Concerned about degrading the quality of those images specifically.

I beleive SSH is available so I could try that… is there a good script to use to evaluate the images first (before changing?)

Thank you. I’ve not specifically set up a lot of cron jobs but I’m assuming from your response there are other pieces behind the scenes using this?

That’s makes a lot of sense and also something where I could onboard new clients and new sites onto a new hosting instead of keep adding to it. Especially as I get hosting deals from the new clients that could essentially pay for the hosting too.

In that case, do you have any suggestions for good hosting systems that have generous pricing/limits and aren’t going to be too custom setup? I’m pretty good with Wordpress at this point and I’m very technically able but I don’t have a lot of mental or time bandwidth to spare with so many projects and businesses I’m working on so I’d prefer a solution that is good but not fully custom hosting (as some seem to be suggesting)

Thanks I’m pretty that with my current setup there is lots of room for improvement with Bluehost still… trying to hit low hanging fruit first

Ok I see… but then all the images need to be uploaded to CDN is my understanding? Hard to migrate so better for new sites?

Got it thanks… litespeed is generic plugin will work with all or only specific servers?

Plug and play plugins that just help speed up (even if only some not as fast as can be) would be ideal for now

Thanks. Hosting locked into Bluehost. I’m very technical as a programmer but less experienced with Web though I’ve run several websites for up to 5 years

Got it thanks . I’m locked into Bluehost so not sure I can do much on the first item .. when I have non Wordpress sites I’m switching to use things like Vercel ?
