Claude Code + WordPress = Client Sites FIXED INSTANTLY

I connected Claude Code directly to a live WordPress client site — one prompt, and it created a WordPress app password and hooked itself into the REST API. From there it fixed client feedback across the whole site, diagnosed why the site was slow (LiteSpeed server, zero caching), installed LiteSpeed Cache, removed unused plugins, and took load times from 1.4 seconds to 0.04 seconds — every page responding in 46ms. Then it warmed the entire cache from the sitemap and minified the CSS. About 10 minutes of work, most of it watching. 🎯 Get a 14-day semush trial → https://semrush.sjv.io/JkmbYa (huge thanks to semrush for sponsoring this video) Thanks to semrush for sponsoring this video and giving me access to the their tool ! After the speed fixes, I plugged in the Semrush connector + Google Search Console data and let Claude Code one-shot the SEO: pulling real search volumes, rewriting meta titles, descriptions and H1s around the keywords that actually get searched, planning new high-intent pages, and checking indexing in Search Console. This is the WordPress version of what I've been doing with Shopify — and honestly, it's even smoother. 🚀 What Claude Code did on this WordPress site: • Connected via WP app password + REST API (takes ~2 seconds) • Fixed client feedback issues across every page • Diagnosed the slow site: no full-page cache — every visit rebuilt the page in PHP • Installed LiteSpeed Cache + removed unused plugins • 1.4s first load → 0.04s (46ms cached responses on every page) • Warmed the full cache from the sitemap so it's fast for everyone, not just me • Pulled Semrush search volumes + GSC data, then rewrote meta titles/descriptions/H1s • Found new page opportunities (high-volume, high-ticket keywords the site never targeted) • Checked + submitted pages for indexing in Search Console ⏱️ Chapters: 0:00 Connecting Claude Code to WordPress (app password + REST API) 0:40 Fixing client feedback instantly 1:08 "The website is really slow" — let's
