Just like a home or office, your WordPress blog also needs a little cleaning from time to time. It is necessary because there is an addition of multiple data and files, from the time you created your WP site. Over a period of time, the fresh site has become messy and grown in size. Now, its loading time has slowed down, which is not a good thing in terms of ‘User Experiences’. 

It is wise to clear unnecessary data and content, and optimize files and images. It can help you enhance the site loading time, without eliminating anything essential. 

Plugin and themes developers may need to de-clutter their WP site because of the level of testing they perform in the creating phase. They may be tempted to launch a new WP website, which is time-consuming. However, they can reset the WP database, where all its information gets stored and organized, and is retrievable.
