How to optimize your website database for better performance

Over time, databases can accumulate "overhead" (wasted space). Optimizing helps speed up your site .

  • The Process: In phpMyAdmin, select your database and check the boxes next to your tables.
  • The Command: From the "With selected" dropdown menu at the bottom, choose Optimize table.
  • Benefits: This defragments the tables and reduces the database size, leading to faster query responses on your Hostaday server .
