We will immediately create a backup of your site in the unlikely event we encounter any performance improvement issues.
-

Evaluation & Planning

-

-
4
Communication
Don't worry, we'll be there via live chat or email during the whole process.
-
Image optimisationImages usually have unnecessary data that is saved within the image. By removing this unnecessary data, you can save up to 80% of page load time on your website.
-
Minification and deffered script loading
Minifying HTML, CSS, and JS files will remove unnecessary white space characters which will improve page load time. Deffering unneeded JS files until it is needed can reduce the inital load time of your website.
-
Caching - server and client
Websites usually use the same assets(Images, Styles, etc.) and by caching these assets, navigating through webpages can reduce load time by reusing these cached assets.
-
Compression
Enabling compression allows your web server to serve smaller file sizes which can make your website load faster.
-
Lazy loading
Enabling lazy loading for images, iframes, and videos can reduce the number of HTTP requests by loading all these as they enter the viewport.
