Technical improvements in the page design and functionality

to reduce the page load speed of the website.

1) Evaluate Current Performance:

Use tools like Google PageSpeed Insights, GTmetrix, or WebPageTest to analyze the current page load
speed and identify specific areas for improvement.

2) Optimize Images:

Compress images on the page using tools like TinyPNG or ImageOptim. Ensure images are in the
correct format and size for web display.

3) Minimize HTTP Requests:

Reduce the number of scripts and stylesheets loaded on the page. Combine CSS and JavaScript files
where possible.

4) Enable Browser Caching:

Set caching headers for static resources to allow browsers to cache them and reduce load times for
returning visitors.

5) Minify CSS, JavaScript, and HTML:

Minimize file sizes by removing unnecessary spaces, comments, and formatting from your CSS,
JavaScript, and HTML files.

6) Optimize Server Response Time:

Improve server performance by optimizing database queries, using caching mechanisms, and ensuring
efficient code execution.

7) Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN):

Consider using a CDN to serve static resources from servers closer to your users, reducing latency.

8) Optimize Critical Rendering Path:

Prioritize loading of critical resources needed for rendering above-the-fold content. Defer non-critical
resources to improve initial load times.

9) Reduce Third-Party Scripts:

Limit the use of third-party scripts and services on the page, as they can significantly impact load times.

10) Enable GZIP Compression:

Enable GZIP compression on your server to reduce the size of files sent over the network.

11) Optimize Database Queries:

Ensure that database queries are efficient and only retrieve the necessary data. Consider indexing
frequently accessed columns to speed up queries.
12) Use CSS Sprites:

Combine multiple images into a single image sprite to reduce the number of HTTP requests required to
load images.

13) Lazy Load Non-Essential Content:

Defer loading of non-essential content, such as images below the fold or off-screen, until after the
initial page load.

14) Optimize Font Loading:

Use the "font-display: swap;" CSS property to ensure text is displayed using a fallback font while
custom fonts are loading

15) Preconnect to Required Origins:

Use the "preconnect" resource hint to establish early connections to required origins, reducing latency
when fetching resources.

16) Reduce Cookie Size:

Minimize the size of cookies sent with each request to reduce the amount of data transferred over the
network.

17) Implement Server-Side Caching:

Use server-side caching mechanisms, such as reverse proxies or caching plugins, to cache dynamic
content and reduce server load.

18) Optimize JavaScript Execution:

Minimize the use of blocking JavaScript and ensure that scripts are loaded asynchronously or deferred
where possible.

19) Monitor and Iterate:

Continuously monitor the performance of your website using tools like Google PageSpeed Insights or
Lighthouse and iterate on your optimizations to further improve page load speed.
