Images are no doubt a very big part of websites. Whether the image is for content purposes to illustrate the meaning of the page, or for decorative/design purposes to make it look better— images are essential. But images can also slow down your website more than anything else. However that doesn’t mean you remove all the images from your website. With proper optimization, you can have lots of great images AND have a fast loading Divi website too!
In this episode of Divi Chat, we discuss image optimization and why it’s one of the most crucial steps to speed up Divi. Plus, we discuss our preferred image optimization tools too!
Join the DC panel this week as we share our tried & true tips for image optimization.
