Our Optimisation Framework:
- Performance benchmarking before and after changes

We had the pleasure of working with Lauren Perrow, she was fantastic from start to finish. Our initial queries and calls were handled professionally and then quickly understood exactly what we were looking for our website and branding vision. Lauren created a beautiful and well engineered website from our initial calls/emails. Available at all times and very efficient with tweaks and changes needed to launch the website. Very friendly, professional and approachable. Thanks to Lauren and the Creative Ground team. Dylan & Ben AustralianBusinessFunding.com.auPosted on Google![]()

We have worked with Creative Ground on two businesses now and can not fault them. The websites they've created for us have been exactly what we were after, full training was provided so that I know how to update the website as needed and they take care of all the back-end technical stuff. Their costs are very reasonable especially for the quality of work and they're always contactable & efficient. Highly recommend.
Web Design FAQs
What counts as a good website speed score?
Google measures three Core Web Vitals: Largest Contentful Paint under 2.5 seconds, Interaction to Next Paint under 200 milliseconds, and Cumulative Layout Shift under 0.1. Those thresholds matter more than the single PageSpeed number everyone fixates on, because they reflect what real visitors experience rather than one lab test. Once a site passes all three with room to spare, chasing 100/100 rarely changes anything customers or Google notice — so we optimise to the thresholds and then stop.
How long does WordPress speed optimisation take?
Most sites take 3 to 5 business days from kick-off to the final re-test. Day one is the audit and benchmark, so we know your starting LCP, INP and CLS numbers. Implementation follows across hosting, caching, images, scripts and the database, then we re-test and hand you the before-and-after figures. Larger WooCommerce stores and sites with heavy custom code take longer, and we tell you that at the audit stage rather than halfway through.
Will speed optimisation break my website?
It shouldn't, because we don't change anything blind. How we work depends on the site: anything complex — WooCommerce, membership or custom code — is changed on a staging copy first and only pushed live once it has been tested. Simpler brochure sites are optimised directly, with a restore point taken before each change so it can be rolled back in minutes. Everything is re-tested afterwards, so a performance tweak doesn't leave a form, slider or checkout broken behind it.
How much does WordPress speed optimisation cost?
A full speed optimisation starts from $1,200, covering the audit and benchmark, implementation across hosting, caching, images, code and database, and a re-test with before-and-after Core Web Vitals figures. Sites with heavy page builders, large product catalogues or custom code sit higher, and we quote after the audit so the price reflects what actually needs fixing. Hosting is often the single biggest factor — if the server is the bottleneck we say so, rather than sell optimisation that can't help.
