This has to be the best plugin ever. Just found out about it through searching. Simple to use and already improved my GTMatrix grade. Thank you to the team behind this plugin!

The plugin is fairly easy to set up once you got the ImageEngine account registered. The load times, especially on mobile, has improved significantly! Compared to similar image optimization plugins, this has a couple of unique features: Also support css,js,fonts and other static files Built in CDN AVIF support Bonus for working well with Elementor and WooCommerce.

I’m a novice so I use Google Page Speed Score etc heavily… helps me benchmark my build and plugin quality so I can maximise the speed of my site and pages.. I use a lot of video so I use Bunny CDN… My Google scores had a lot of negative marks and I was stuck around 65 /100 with page load times around 1 second and 1 – 2 meg pages.. I plugged in ImageEngine and with the amazing help of Vysakh my scores went through the roof! 96 / 100, page speeds of 500ms! and page sizes of 370Kb!!! I mean what is not to like??? Would I recommend this 100% – 5 STARS! Thank you to Vysakh for setting it up and his Master Class on Google Chromes Inspect and Network tools 🙂
