# clean up and optimize your wordpress database

When you remove a plugin, WordPress will still retain the data. Actually, it isn’t fully removed. The issue is that those plugins might leave behind tables and rows in your database, and over time this can accumulate quite quickly, which in turn can make your WordPress slower.

If you’ve uninstalled unused plugins or been using WordPress for a while, then your database absolutely needs a cleanup.

\*\*My service includes:\*\*
 – Optimise MySQL
 – Clean up uninstalled & orphaned plugin tables
 – Clean up unused rows from wp\_options table
 – Clean up orphaned WooCommerce tables
 – Delete orphaned cron tasks
 – Clean up old revisions of posts, orphan post meta, auto-saves, spam, orphan post meta, orphan user metadata, orphan comment meta, orphan relationships, dashboard transient feed, orphan term metadata, expired transients, pingbacks, trackbacks, etc.
 – \*\*A detailed PDF report about improvements on your database!\*\*

\*\*Before placing an order, please uninstall inactive plugins you no longer need.\*\*
