Why choose FastPixel Website Accelerator?

  • Website Performance Boost: Just activate the plugin and within seconds the optimized webpages will start to be served.
  • Lower the CPU/RAM Impact: Using the plugin will reduce the impact on the resources used by your website. All the CPU intensive processing is done in the cloud and resulting pages will generally be served from a cached version and the optimized images from the CDN.
  • Automated Core Web Vitals Optimization: All the technical aspects are taken care of by FastPixel in a fashion transparent to you.
  • Smart Cache Warmup/Update: The cache warmup and update are taken care of automatically in a smart way. Pages are cached as they are visited and also updated if you update the content.
  • Critical CSS: CCSS is automatically generated for each page for lightning-fast page loads.
  • CSS/JS Processing: CSS/JS files are combined and also minified and compressed before they are served from our CDN.
  • HTML Optimization: A single highly optimized HTML file is generated that can adaptively serve the ideal webpage depending on the visitor’s viewport/device.
  • DNS Preconnects: Accelerates resource fetching, reduces the access time to external resources.
  • Font Processing: All the techniques to accelerate the processing and delivery of fonts are employed, e.g. font subsetting, font loading control, font compression, font embedding (lower CLS result).
  • Image Resizing & Optimization: The images are automatically resized to the right size for their placeholder and then optimized and delivered via ShortPixel CDN.
  • Automatic Next-Gen Images Delivery: Depending on the visitor’s browser capabilities and support, the original JPG/PNG/GIF images are converted and served as WebP or AVIF whenever possible. For browsers that do not offer such support, the original format is served.
