My new website sits on Amazon AWS Lightsail and every page drags—load times are slow all the time, not just during traffic spikes. I need someone who knows Lightsail inside-out to pinpoint what’s holding the server back and get the site running fast. Scope • Inspect the instance (CPU, RAM, disk I/O, network) and web service stack to locate bottlenecks. • Review database settings and query performance—even though the main pain point is page load times, database tuning may still be part of the fix. • Optimize web server configs (Apache / Nginx, PHP-FPM settings, caching headers, gzip, etc.). • Implement caching or a CDN layer if it solves the problem. • Deliver a concise before-and-after report showing key metrics (TTFB, full page load) so I can see the improvement. Environment Ubuntu-based Lightsail instance, standard LAMP stack, SSH access available. You should be comfortable with CLI tools like top, htop, iotop, MySQL slow query log, and AWS Lightsail metrics. Acceptance Pages should load noticeably faster for a first-time visitor, with reproducible test results in tools like GTmetrix or PageSpeed Insights. If this sounds straightforward to you, let’s get it done quickly—I’m ready to grant access as soon as we agree on the approach.
