The WP-Optimize database is a medium for storing important information and data. WordPress uses a MySQL database to store various information and data, and this database has a significant role. As the website owner, you must always do backups to secure and keep the database working correctly. The growing blog with continuously updated articles affects the number of tables, so that it will be redundant and cause database overhead in MySQL. You have to regularly perform optimization and delete table data so that the database continues to work correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WordPress has essential features that are very useful for users, such as post revision and auto-draft, which function to keep writing stored or can be returned when a problem occurs while writing (for example, there is a power outage and the laptop also shuts down but the writing in the WordPress editor is not yet saved, then the auto-draft feature will automatically keep your writing). But using this feature also harms the WordPress database because it adds excess size to the database, and you have to empty all the tables to keep the database size low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Features revisions post or post revision could you limit so that the database does not occur overhead, how to add a single line of code, you can limit post revisions to any revisions 2-3. But if your blog is extensive and continually updated, it will certainly not be effective.To solve the above problems, you can use the easiest and practical way, namely by using the WP-Optimize plugin to clean everything with one click, and you only do it once a month.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/span>Why Should You Optimize Your WordPress Database?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each website with a database can run fast or not depending on how many queries (the calling process data) the database was performed and how long it takes the question. If by any chance, you have been a WordPress user for a long time, your database may be full of useless things such as revised posts, spam comments, trash, new metadata, etc. Database files can also get more significant if you often install plugins to create their tables in your WordPress database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These files can increase the database’s size and make your site slow, primarily if the code used to retrieve data from the database is inefficient. Cleaning up these data, especially if it’s done for the first time in a long time, can significantly reduce the database’s size. This can improve database performance, speed up the database backup process and reduce disk space usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
