Hey folks,

I am trying to optimize speed on my quiz website which naturally runs with alot of images .

I have tried several plugins to optimize speed but it seems website is just getting bloated with needless plugins and watsed resources.

Can anyone suggest 1-2 plugins that would get the job done , while not consuming alot of resources and time in config ?

I am currently using Cyberpanel with Open Litespeed , i have tried litespeed cache plugin which doesnt really work for the images,

my website is very lightweight as i chose to use a very lightweight theme , so the images are the only concern when it comes to optimization.


cant want to hear from you.
 
WP Rocket + Shortpixel is a good combination. Easy to configure, as well.
 
Idk if you know this or not but look into lazy loading images. It speed up page load alot. Could also use cdn for statics assets like images.
 
Also forgot to add, host images on a seperate server as the Media serving vost alot of resources and if hosted on same server will slow the website down. Caching image is done by using cdn. Digital ocean offers cdn and i use it and it's very good compared to aws and google.

Make sure that Litespeed cache is configured with QUIC.cloud, their image optimization service is quite good. If you want an additional layer of optimization, convert and display your images in webp. There are other valid cloud solutions such as Smush that won't waste your resources.
 
Smush is also a good option
 
Shortpixel is just optimization software right ? They dont offer free cdn ?

If so any free cdn ?
 
You have to use lazy loading and cdn for images. Plugins are not going to help.

Also I would suggest you to manually resize and compress images before uploading. Lets say your theme is showing only 500px wide image. There is no point in uploading 1000px wide images. Manually resize them. This will reduce image size considerably.

Cloudflare offers free cdn.

If you are looking for cheap cdn, you can try bunnycdn or stackpath.
 
You may be considering just a few of the factors that may affect the speed. I would start by having a CDN like Cloudflare first. Then consider the default speed optimization features on my theme. I noticed, if you install some other third-party speed optimization features on top of your default theme, you will experience slow speeds. I use imagify for image optimization.
