5- Use joins instead of subqueries when possible for better performance.

6- Create CTEs instead of multiple sub queries , it will make your query easy to read.

7- Join tables using JOIN keywords instead of writing join condition in where clause for better readability.

8- Never use order by in sub queries , It will unnecessary increase runtime.

9- If you know there are no duplicates in 2 tables, use UNION ALL instead of UNION for better performance.
