Testing Homepage before buying license

  • I installed your free version plugin (demo) to be able to evaluate the improvement obtained on the homepage. However I see no difference in the PageSpeed Insights results!
    I have a website in 4 languages (IT/DE/FR/EN) with Woocommerce and WPML. This latest translation plugin generates a separate main homepage and 4 homepages, one for each language. I’ve tried monitoring both the main page and the 4 language homepages, but sadly I don’t see any difference!
    First of all I would like to ask if your plugin is compatible with multilingual sites managed by WPML. If so, I would like some help in locating the homepage where I can test before purchasing the license. Thanks for the help you want to give me.

    As a matter of fairness towards the next users who will read my request for assistance, I would like to clarify the following:

    I installed the WPSpeed plugin for the first time on my website. Unfortunately, after several attempts, I haven’t noticed any difference in the metric that the PageSpeed Insights tool detects. I admit that the first thought that crossed my mind was that I tested yet another plugin that doesn’t work or doesn’t perform what it promises. After all, from what transpires in the changelog, it seems to be a plugin in its infancy.

    However, having appreciated the recent positive comments of the few users currently present, I tried to rely on assistance via the support form.
    With pleasant surprise, after only a few hours I received the answer you read above. The consultancy then continued via private e-mails, following the welcome invitation of John, the developer.
    I gave him access to the site and let him make the necessary inquiries.

    The result of the investigation determined that it was not a plugin malfunction. It was simply the server’s internal caching system that prevented the PageSpeed Insights metric from detecting new page parameters after activating the WPSpeed plugin! I had concentrated on disabling the site’s caching system, but I hadn’t thought about the server one!

    All resolved in a handful of emails. Now I can appreciate the excellent properties of WPSpeed which I immediately purchased in the PRO version and which I strongly recommend.

    I thank John for his availability and patience with my request and I wish him all the best, as well as a long and profitable life for this interesting and innovative plugin.

    Conclusion: Before testing the Homepage after activating the free version of WPSpeed, clear the site cache well and also the one possibly active on the server! Alternatively, use the string “?nocache=1” at the end of the URL to test (example: https://mysite.com/home/?nocache=1).
