How to Speed Up Your Website, Part 1: Images and WordPress Plugins
Resizing your images is the most effective way to make a website load faster. If you run WordPress, a plugin can speed it up even more. Here are three to try.
web design jakarta - Sometimes, even when a good web design vendor builds it, a website is still “a bit” slow to load. Loading speed is one of the most important things in web design. So what web design technique should you remind your vendor about to speed up your website? One of the main things to do is shrink the images on the site. During the web design process, we often want to use very large print-resolution images, or images that are simply too big for the web. That makes the site slow to load. The biggest worry is that a potential customer who wanted to learn about our product through the website will give up because they can't wait for the page to open. The most effective fix is to resize every image on the website to a more web-friendly size. For the exact sizes, ask your web design vendor.
If your site runs on WordPress, there are now plenty of ways to speed it up with a plugin. Here are a few WordPress plugins to speed up your website:
1. W3 Total Cache
W3 Total Cache is a WordPress plugin that helps speed up your website's loading performance. I put it at number one because I use it myself and it's easy to configure. It's free, and it can make your site 80% faster than before. Nearly 1 million users is pretty impressive.

2. WP Super Cache
WP Super Cache is a speed plugin that works much like W3 Total Cache. The main difference is its control menu. It has also been installed by more than one million WordPress users. It's free, easy to use and needs very little configuration. Search online for a few ways to configure it.
