How to increase pricing tier or server performance in MySQL Azure server?

Question

I had created a mysql server with basic pricing tier of 2vCores and 10GB Storage to use it for hosting a wordpress site. But seems that the server is too slow with a loading time of more than 10 secs everytime i open a page in my. Wordpress. I can't change the pricing tier after server creation as the options are locked. Please help on how to increase performance or unlock higher pricing tiers.
