What We Want To Do Is Compare These 3 Platforms As They Differ Considerably


Let's Test PageSpeed With Google Developer Tools

1/ Click on the link above, if it doesn't work, here is the URL: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/

2/ Once the page opens in your internet browser, in the empty field, type in the URL of your website e.g. eduwreck.siterubix.com, then click on the blue Analyze button.

3/ Once it's loaded and tested the page, there will be two tabs, Mobile and Desktop. This is so you can see the results from either platform used to view your website.


4/ It will look something like the image above. Take note of the percentage of the results on each tab, as we will compare them once we are done tweaking the pages info with plugins.

Now that we know How To Test PageSpeed With Google Developers, let's move on to GTMetrix PageSpeed.

Nicely done Edu!

... particularly given the warnings others had given on the plugins' comments pages. Test the plugin before taking it to your production website.

Great work!

Many thanks Dennis! It ALWAYS good to test it on a wreck site first!

Be very careful with the auto optimization tools, they will basically use min. or less to transfer the code into a better web-speed and size value... As not all wordpress and siterubix codings are ment to be optimized or if you code yourself, you can destroy functionality, accessibility, user experience and content completely.

Take out the main tips that you can follow... thanks for the course by the way.

Keep at it... and always be vigilant

I previously used auto-optimize which did not work well for me. It increases the speed but has a negative side too.

For example, if you have a Wa comparison table within your content, it appears as the footer.
Thank you for the training.

This is good to know! Thanks for sharing your findings with us. Could you perhaps add your comparison table as a graphic?

I could not keep the plug in anymore. I disabled it.

Here is my blog after my experience. Thanks.

Thanks for your input regarding the use of Autoptimize. What was your whole scenario? Would you care to elaborate for us so that others reading can make their educated decision based on what you and others share? Looking forward to your response.

Will the effect be instant after activating the plugins?

Yes, see my graphics for before and after. The only one I didn't have for a before was GTMetrix. But you can see the before and after of the others.

I've just done this on my REAL site and it seems to be working fine. I believe one has to be REALLY careful when installing similar plugins. Make sure you don't have a similar plugin installed already, it's GUARANTEED TO CRASH!

If you have any doubt, PM me.
