WordPress performance scanner FAQ

Common questions about running a free WordPress performance audit, what we measure, and how the scores are calculated.

Is this WordPress website performance scanner really free?

Yes. The scanner is 100% free to use. No signup, no credit card, no email required. We run a limited number of free scans per browser per week to keep the service fast for everyone.

How is this different from Google PageSpeed Insights?

PageSpeed Insights only measures rendering performance. HyperPress Scanner combines PageSpeed + GTmetrix + hosting quality detection, security header analysis, image optimization audit, CDN detection, DNS timing, and a WordPress-specific fit score — in one report.

Is this just GTmetrix for WordPress?

No, but GTmetrix is part of it. We run a full GTmetrix test (desktop, Chicago) and a full Google PageSpeed Insights test (throttled mobile) under the hood, then layer WordPress-specific analysis on top: plugin/theme attribution of CPU and bandwidth, hosting-tier detection, page-builder impact, security-header and directory-listing checks, image-format audit, and a WordPress fit score. GTmetrix tells you a page is slow; we tell you which plugin to look at.

What's a good Core Web Vitals score for a WordPress site?

Google considers LCP under 2.5s, CLS under 0.1, and INP under 200ms as 'good'. Most WordPress sites struggle with LCP because of unoptimized images and slow hosting. Our scanner measures all three and tells you which need attention.

Does the scanner work with WooCommerce, Elementor, Divi, or other page builders?

Yes. The scanner detects your tech stack automatically and runs the same performance audit regardless of which theme or page builder you use. Page builders often add overhead that hurts performance — the scanner shows you where.

Why does my WordPress site have a slow LCP even when the server is fast?

LCP usually fails because the largest visible element (often a hero image or banner) loads slowly. Common culprits: oversized images, no lazy loading, missing modern formats (WebP/AVIF), and render-blocking JavaScript. The scanner identifies all of these.

How accurate is the HyperPress Fit Score?

The Fit Score estimates how much your site would benefit from migrating to managed HyperPress hosting. It weighs the WordPress detection signal, performance gap vs. our client benchmark, current hosting tier, and infrastructure findings. It's a directional signal, not a guarantee.

Will running the scanner slow down my WordPress site?

No. The scanner makes a small number of requests to your site (homepage HTML, a few common asset paths) plus calls to Google PageSpeed and GTmetrix APIs. The impact on your origin server is comparable to a single visitor.
