    Unclear as to how to run audit. AI Audit failed to load. Didn't work for me.

  • A Game Changer Plugin in WordPress Performance Auditing

    I’ve been running BoltAudit on my WordPress site for the past few days, and it has quickly become an indispensable diagnostic tool for plugin and performance health. If you’re serious about site performance, BoltAudit is a smart and focused auditing tool that provides real insight without slowing things down. I was able to identify a bloated plugin, trim unused metadata, and spot environment misconfigurations - all within a couple of clicks. It’s lightweight, developer-friendly, and incredibly transparent. Highly recommended for site owners and agencies looking to understand exactly what’s impacting performance—and how to fix it.

  • An Essential Tool for WordPress Performance Optimization!"

    BoltAudit is hands down one of the most useful tools I’ve used for diagnosing performance issues on WordPress sites. The plugin gives a clear breakdown of what’s slowing down your website, from heavy plugins and unused add-ons to autoloaded options and database bloat. I especially appreciate the detailed plugin-level metrics, database insights, and server environment checks—all presented in a clean and easy-to-understand interface. The fact that it runs diagnostics on-demand without affecting front-end performance is a huge plus. If you’re serious about keeping your WordPress site fast and healthy, BoltAudit is a must-have. Kudos to the developer for creating such a thoughtful and comprehensive tool!
