If you have not upgraded W3 Total Cache to Pro, then this is probably the best way for you to have your question answered by our team of experts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/plugin\/w3-total-cache\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">W3 Total Cache &ndash; WordPress Support Forum<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"pro-license-account-support\">Pro License Account Support<\/h2>\n<p>If you have upgraded W3 Total Cache to Pro, and are looking for account support then it is recommended you submit that request directly in your dashboard.

Since everyone&rsquo;s site, traffic and theme is different, there is no one-size-fits-all solution.<\/p>\n<p>This service also takes into account the idiosyncrasies of Web Performance Optimization (WPO) in a WordPress context. What this means is that WPO best practices have to be modified for WordPress because of how the application operates. The number of counterintuitive realities could fill a small book.<\/p>\n<p>This means that the best configuration for the site might not involve enabling minify, database caching, and other things that one might expect. As a matter of fact, it can actually hurt performance by implementing features for the wrong situation.<\/p>\n<p>The deliverable with this service is a faster site. It&rsquo;s impossible to predict the extent to which our work will improve performance (especially true for code we didn&rsquo;t write running on servers we didn&rsquo;t build), our promise is that we&rsquo;ll do our best.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, we&rsquo;ll send along a performance report that outlines the improvements, recommendations (if any), and what else we can do to help you reach and exceed your performance goals. There are many ways that we can help improve performance, you should think of W3 Total Cache configuration as the starting point for optimizing your site.<\/p>\n<p>Upgrading to W3 Total Cache Pro makes this work even more effective, as we&rsquo;ll have additional features to utilize in delivering the best possible results. It&rsquo;s best to upgrade before placing your order since we can do this for you, and you can upgrade right in the Dashboard on any W3 Total Cache page.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"plugin-configuration--125\">Plugin Configuration &ndash; $125<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">The deliverable with this service is a faster site.

The configuration depends on the availability of the resources on the server, pro license for W3 Total Cache (Plugin in Pro or community mode). Any configuration related to the W3 Total Cache including the CDN implementation if the CDN provider the user subscribed with offers this option.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"cdn-configuration-full-site-delivery--250\">CDN Configuration: Full-Site Delivery &ndash; $250<\/h3>\n<p>A Full Site Delivery (FSD) CDN is a type of CDN that not only caches static files but also serves entire web pages. This means that the CDN acts as a proxy server, retrieving web pages from the origin server, caching them, and delivering them to end users. FSD CDNs can speed up website load times by reducing the time it takes for the server to generate and deliver the HTML content of a page. The deliverable with this service is setting up the FSD CDN and connecting with the W3 Total Cache FSD CDN Pro option (only available in Pro mode) with the CDN providers that are offering this type of service Like Bunny CDN, Transparent CDN, Amazon, Cloudflare.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"hosting-environment-troubleshooting--200\">Hosting Environment Troubleshooting &ndash; $200<\/h3>\n<p>Investigation with full server access on the server restrictions for the W3 Total Cache configuration.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"eliminate-render-blocking-javascripts--150\">Eliminate render-blocking Javascripts &ndash; $150<\/h3>\n<p>Depending on the configuration and the website, some JS are flagged as render-blocking.
