This checklist is designed to optimize website performance, ensuring fast load times, improved user experience, and better SEO rankings. Each step focuses on specific actions to enhance the overall speed and efficiency of the website.
Use tools like Google PageSpeed Insights or GTmetrix to analyze the current loading speed and performance metrics of the website.
Compress and resize images without losing quality to reduce loading times.
Remove unnecessary characters, comments, and spaces from CSS and JavaScript files to decrease file sizes.
Set up caching to allow browsers to store static files, reducing load times for returning visitors.
Implement a CDN to distribute website content across multiple servers globally, improving accessibility and speed.
Limit the number of elements on the page to decrease the number of HTTP requests made when loading.
Use lazy loading for images and videos to load them only when they enter the viewport, saving initial loading time.
Regularly clean and optimize database tables to improve query performance and reduce load times.
Re-analyze website performance after implementing all optimizations to ensure improvements are effective.
