Always love your stuff.

How do you deal with images compression, what plugin are you using do I even need a imagine optimization plugin. Currently, using the free version of optimole is there a better one out there?

[@Cloudways]

Hi @TheNamesJT, We don't perform compression for images server-wide; this needs to be done on the application level; what we do is we cache requests via Varnish and serve via a high-performance nginx web server. For Your question, you may need to upload the compressed images to the media library using any plugin, e.g, Webp Media Converter. It will convert the images in the webp format and then proceed to embed them to your site; you may refer to this guide. support.cloudways.com/en/articles/5799334-how-to-use-and-serve-webp-images-in-wordpress To even reduce the load time, you may use Cloudflare Enterprise to server images and other static content via Cloudflare CDN. To know more about Cloudflare Enterprise, kindly refer to this guide support.cloudways.com/en/articles/6082303-cloudflare-why-you-should-use-cloudflare-enterprise To Activate Cloudflare Enterprise, kindly refer to this guide support.cloudways.com/en/articles/6009152-how-to-integrate-cloudflare-with-your-application or watch kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXyqqoefhJeNn80 I hope the following will help to get the best core vital results/grade/score.

Yeah, my websites are all still slow on mobile. No irl but in test. Images optimized, all these settings applied, fonts local.

@Joe-ss9cr Hi Joe, Please raise a support ticket for assistance.

@@Cloudways when I say slow I mean often < 80 while using a lean tool like Bricks, while others using Bricks seem to get 90+ scores without effort.

Awesome video! Helped a lot! Although i couldn't fine the Object Cache Pro plugin?

[@Cloudways]

Hi Daniel, It's good to know that video was helpful for you 🙌 For your query: In case When users launch a new server and application: Users launching new servers and applications will have Object Cache Pro pre-installed, so they don't have to enable it on their servers through their settings. To check if Object Cache Pro is installed on your server, navigate to WordPress dashboard > tools > site health. On the platform, you can look up Object Cache Pro from Server Management > Tools > Site Health. In case users with existing servers and applications: Customers with existing servers and applications on Cloudways will have to install Object Cache Pro from the platform. Navigate to the Cloudways Server Management Panel > Setting & Packages > Packages and click Install Redis. Note: Users who already have Redis installed on their servers will have to disable Redis and enable it again. For more details, You can have a look at our Knowledgebase article 👉support.cloudways.com/en/articles/5723061-speed-up-your-wordpress-application-using-object-cache-pro

Thank you for your intention and effort but... The video is very weak. It didn't help at all. You didn't show How to Optimize Wordpress Site Speed on Cloudways... It just showed the server settings in the dashboard. I didn't get any important information.

It was too simple too and didn’t show anything of value. It’s a great video as a whole , but the information inside is too weak im sorry. You could have wrote a blog post of 20 lines.
