How to Improve Website Speed and Performance for Your Los Angeles Business

May 02, 2022

  1. Utilize a Content Delivery Network (CDN): A CDN takes your static files (such as images, JavaScript, and CSS files) and stores copies of them on servers around the world. This makes loading them much faster for visitors who are geographically close to the CDN’s servers.
  2. Enable GZIP Compression: GZIP is a form of compression that reduces website file size by up to 70%, resulting in faster loading times.
  3. Optimize Images: By default, images contain metadata about themselves (such as copyright or camera information). This metadata can quickly add up and increase the size of your web pages. You can strip this metadata from your images to reduce their size.
  4. Minify & Combine Files: Minifying files means removing all unnecessary characters, such as whitespace, from a file in order to reduce the size of the file. Combining multiple files into a single file is an efficient way to save bandwidth and reduce HTTP requests.
  5. Caching: Caching can be done both client-side (in the browser) and server-side (through caching plugins). Both types of caching can help reduce page load times and make your website run faster.
