How can I optimize a WordPress website except minifying files and compressing images?

I am trying to optimize a WordPress website. I already minified some js and CSS files. I already tried compressing images and videos and trying to eliminate render-blocking files but the website speed is just the same.

The issue that I found on the website is that it has files that are too long and even I enabled caching, some files are not being cached.

Any information or website that will be helpful to optimize the website?

    You need to follow the following instructions:

    1. take a backup of your file.
    2. Install a cache plugin like as [https://wp-rocket.me/[1]
    3. minify css,html,js of your wordpress file

    This plugin is working fine.

    First of all, take a backup of your site manually
    Go to public_html and compress all the files
    After that export a copy of the database by phpMyAdmin

    Then you can perform the following steps:

    • Clean the database where there is a lot of data that could be cached You can do this with several plugins (I recommend :WP-Optimize – Cache, Clean, Compress)
    • After you clean and optimize the database, deactivate this plugin and install the WP Fastest Cache plugin
      Include the following options (note that you must turn off any other speed booster plug-ins because including more than one speed plugin can cause negative interference):

    -cach system

    -preload

    -logged-in Users

    -Minify HTML

    -Gzip

    -Drowser caching

    -Disable Emojis

    *Notice:
    preload
    Enable – This tells the plugin to preload your pages. Upon firing, you’ll get a popup asking you which pages to cache.
    Check all the categories – Particularly Home
    page, Posts, Categories, Pages

    Leave the “pages per minute” at 4
    You may need to reduce this number depending on your hosting provider limits.

    Leave the “Restart After Completed” option unchecked.*

    After you do that, compress the images with any compression plugin (i use smush)
