Add-on - Preload
The add-on is designed to meet the requirements of the Google search engine in the matter of preloading the files of used fonts and images when loading store pages, due to which the site receives additional points in assessing the download speed according to Google PageSpeed Insights, which becomes very important with fine optimization of the site loading speed.
The add-on is included in the SpeedUP add-ons package for CS-Cart projects (supplied free of charge as part of the package).
What problems does the Preload add-on solve?:
- Provides technical implementation of preloading font files (direct requirement of the Google PageSpeed Insights audit service);
- Ensures that image files are prioritized when loading pages (improves FCP / LCP metrics, the importance of which has been repeatedly emphasized in Google's announcements of a change in search ranking algorithms in 2021)
Fonts Preload
The functionality boils down to the ability to specify a list of links to the fonts used by the storefront, the font format and the need to automatically add a time stamp and font processing status. All fonts with an active status added to the preload will be preloaded on page load, & nbsp; using Preload (regardless of their use), & nbsp; which will speed up page loading in general and solve the item of speed audit requirements from & nbsp; Google PageSpeed Insights & nbsp; (which seo experts consider one of the most significant metrics for assessing page load speed).
Prioritizing image loading when loading site pages
The module provides preloading of graphic files that are used by pages in the upper visible part of the site. Providing higher levels of stability of the layout on page load as well as faster rendering of important page content allows you to improve UX, your store will receive better speed ratings, and, therefore, & nbsp; and position in the search results.
How many additional points on Google PageSpeed Insights will give add-on?
On our demos, the module on different pages gives an additional 20 to 30 points in the assessment. (Metrics may vary from site to site, the developer cannot guarantee how many rating points your site will additionally receive.)
