OPTIMIZING DISPLAY SPEED

Compress images to the most efficient formats

The new generation WebP and AVIF formats allow you to reduce the weight of images while maintaining optimal quality.

Adapt the display of media & images

Resize media and images depending on whether the user visits from a mobile or a computer.

Reduce the weight of page resources

Optimize your code via minification of HTML, JS and CSS files, or resource compression and concatenation.

Lazy loading

Load only what is visible on the screen instead of the entire page.

Optimize fonts

You can optimize the font format and display text even if it’s not yet loaded.

Avoid blocking the rendering of your pages

Instead, load resources asynchronously, especially for CSS, JS and fonts.

Adopt the right caching strategy

Cache static elements by identifying dynamic and static content, then define the rules for caching static content.

A FORMULA FOR IMPROVING INTERACTIVITY

Delay third party loading

Load and execute scripts after priority content.

Shorten JavaScript execution time

Favor short processing in response to user interactions.

Diminish the work of the main thread

Reduce the number of requests and the size of the exchanges.

Results

Instantly responsive pages allow visitors to enjoy an optimal experience and prevents a high bounce rate.
