PrestaShop Cleaning and Optimization

 

Just like any website using and saving information in databases, your PrestaShop e-shop contains errors and obsolete information (unused carts, old statistics, old logos...). This interfere with the performance of your website, even slowing down loading times. The PrestaShop cleaning and optimization module is the answer to this issue.

Before making your site live, it's essential to run a deep clean of your PrestaShop database. This will avoid emails being sent to customers by mistake, you will freeup some space on your server and also gain processing time.
