WordPress performance and TTFB audit via Comet assistant

In short: This prompt asks your AI to act like a senior WordPress performance engineer for . Nothing to fill in: copy it as it is.

Act like a senior WordPress performance engineer for .

Audit:
- Google Search Console
- Crawl stats
- Core Web Vitals
- Server logs
- Cloudflare/CDN settings
- Caching headers
- HTML generation time
- Plugin overhead
- Database latency
- Image delivery
- Redirect chains

Goal:

Reduce high server response time (SRT/TTFB) and improve mobile performance.

Find the bottlenecks, explain WHY they’re happening, implement low-risk fixes first, then report:

- what was slow
- what you changed
- what still needs approval/access
- next highest-impact fixes

Additionally, go deeper into likely WordPress causes of high SRT:

- Check if full-page caching is active for anonymous users
- Check whether Cloudflare serves cached HTML or always hits origin
- Check slow plugins, theme functions, and heavy builders
- Check DB query time + autoloaded options bloat
- Check WooCommerce, forms, tracking scripts, or chat widgets delaying TTFB
- Check image optimization + hero image impact
• Check redirect hops + unnecessary 301/302 chains
• Check cron, Heartbeat API, or bot traffic overloading origin
- Check cache-control headers, Brotli/GZIP, HTTP/2, HTTP/3, Early Hints, and object caching

Expected output:
- Slowest pages/templates
- Root causes of high SRT
- Fixes already implemented
-Fixes needing approval/access
- Retest results + priority next steps

Fill in the [PLACEHOLDERS] before sending. Never paste real customer data into an AI tool you don't control.
