A fast-loading website not only enhances the user experience, but also improves search engine rankings, reduces bounce rates, and increases conversion rates. By optimizing your website's performance using Onepage, you can deliver a seamless browsing experience.
Here are some essential tips and instructions to help you improve the speed and performance of your website using Onepage.
Optimize Images
Large image files can slow down your site. To optimize them:
Resize Images: Ensure your images are appropriately sized for their intended use. Avoid using overly large dimensions.
Compress Images: Use tools like TinyPNG, Squoosh.app or JPEG Optimizer to compress your images without losing quality.
Use Correct Formats: Use JPEGs for photographs, PNGs for graphics, and SVGs for icons and logos.
Onepage is automatically compressing images that you add to your sites. The size is automatically reduced without affecting the quality of the images, to offer a better page speed.
However, if you want, you can compress the images even more before adding them in Onepage. For that, you can use any external tool to compress the images and then add them in Onepage.
For example you can use this tool:
