Install a cache plugin to help your blog run fast
Yes, a cache plugin can help your blog load faster than it already is.
How a cache plugin works: It helps store your blog’s data on your reader’s web browser so future requests for your blog can be served faster.
What’s the best cache plugin to use? There are many WordPress cache plugins out there, but one of the cache plugin I’ll recommend you use is W3 Total cache.
W3 total cache might be hard to set up, but put your worries at rest because I have written a post on how to set up W3 total cache.

Or if you are that type of blogger that don’t want another plugin to your plugins, you can easily follow the below tutorial to learn how you clean your database manually.
Make sure you don’t use much third-party advert on your blog…
One other thing that makes your blog run slow is simply because of the third-party ads you’re running on your blog.
If you are using Google AdSense, Infolinks to monetize your blog, your blog will load slowly, why? Because those codes are JavaScript and JavaScript’s slows down your blog server.
I am not telling you not to use a third-party ad network that uses JavaScript to serve ads, but do use it to its minimal so you won’t scare your readers away 😉
