Use Cloudflare (free plan is available) and plugins such as WP Rocket or WP Engine.

I'm using WP Rocket, and I always serve my images in AVIF or WebP format.

One thing I’ve noticed that helps maintain speed without breaking things is being careful with how many plugins you install. Sometimes even just one poorly optimized plugin can slow things down. Also, consider lazy loading videos and iframes if you haven’t already.

Website speed issues can be super frustrating. What really helped me was compressing images (I switched to WebP and used TinyPNG), setting up a caching plugin like WP Rocket, and minifying CSS and JS with Autoptimize. I also realized that bad hosting was slowing everything down, so I upgraded, and using a free CDN like Cloudflare made a noticeable difference. I always test changes with tools like PageSpeed Insights, GTmetrix, and WebPageTest to make sure I’m not breaking anything. Small steps really do add up!

In fact, my site is super fast (92% on mobile and 99% on desktop performance according to Google Page Speed).

I see that this question has already been solved. However, I do feel inclined to ask: If you're saying your site is already super fast, why are you also saying you're struggling to make your site faster, it's driving you crazy, and to please help you?

Either way, seems like a moot point.
