Optimize your images to make your browser do less.
- The first version of the home page is now saved as Elementor.
- Next up came Big images, which uses the same images but the page is constructed using the block editor and shortcodes, where necessary.
- The third version is WebP images. Each image was manually edited to scale to a maximum width of 1120 pixels then saved in WebP format with a quality of 60.
The performance of the home page was still poor, so I moved on to Tip 4: Minimize your homepage.
