Option to remove the NitroPack badge from your site.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nFor those with over 1,000,000 monthly page views, NitroPack also offers tailored plans. Contact their team for more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Besides these, the features that really stand out in NitroPack’s Growth and Scale plans are Adaptive Image Sizing <\/strong>and Font Subsetting. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nAdaptive Image Sizing: <\/strong>This feature smartly adjusts image files to suit the viewing device (mobile, desktop, tablet), optimizing pixel count without burdening your website.<\/li>\n\n\n\nFont Subsetting: <\/strong>This removes all unused fonts and symbols from the WordPress site database so they don\u2019t interrupt loading speed. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nI chose the Business Plan for my website (ferdykorpershoek.com). To link it to NitroPack, I:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nLogged into my NitroPack account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Visited the Billing section to review available plans and their details.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Selected the Free Plan, clicked on ‘Manage’, then ‘View Websites’, and chose the site for the upgrade.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nAfter these steps, my main website (ferdykorpershoek.com) was successfully connected to NitroPack’s Business Plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the same way, you can connect more websites. But remember: NitroPack paid subscriptions are limited to one website for each plan. So for each additional site you want to connect to NitroPack, you must purchase a separate subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Navigating NitroPack\u2019s dashboard<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nCurious to see what NitroPack\u2019s dashboard looks like, I took a deep dive into the NitroPack dashboard for my primary website. Let me walk you through some of the insights and features I discovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhen you land on NitroPack’s main page, you’re greeted with tabs like Dashboard, Cache Insights, Cache Settings, Analytics, and Integration.<\/strong> I like how everything is laid out clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\nCheck out the image below. You’ll see my Dashboard displaying the Service Results<\/strong> for my site. It’s fascinating stuff! <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nJust a day ago, I purged my site, and now it\u2019s sitting at a cache size of 25.88MB<\/strong>. That’s the total size of my website in HTML. Pretty impressive, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nUnder the Optimization Status<\/strong> tab, there\u2019s a clear view of the total pages on my site, the ones NitroPack has optimized, and those in line for a makeover. I find this incredibly handy for keeping track of the optimization process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nAnd here’s something essential for anyone on a free plan or just keeping an eye on usage \u2013 the same page shows metrics for page views<\/strong> and CDN bandwidth.<\/strong> It’s useful for monitoring how much of those resources you’re using.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nNow, onto the Cache Insights<\/strong> tab. This is where the magic happens! It shows the breakdown of cached pages on your site by NitroPack. We\u2019re talking everything \u2013 HTML, JavaScript, CSS, fonts, images \u2013 all neatly cached by the plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nAs I scrolled further, I stumbled upon a list of web pages NitroPack optimized, complete with their metrics. The best part? You can see how each page performs on Google PageSpeed Insights right from this dashboard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s a game-changer for pinpointing pages that might still be lagging behind and figuring out how to boost their performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, that\u2019s a quick tour of what NitroPack’s Business plan brings to the table for my site. It\u2019s like having a supercharged toolkit at your fingertips, making sure your website is not only running smoothly but also blazing fast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fine-tune your website\u2019s performance with cache settings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nMoving on from the dashboard, I clicked on the Cache Settings<\/strong> tab. Let me tell you, this is where NitroPack really flexes its muscles with some of the most critical settings for your site’s optimization.<\/p>\n\n\n\nLet’s talk about the Optimization Mode <\/strong>first. You might remember me mentioning the \u2018Ludicrous\u2019 mode earlier \u2013 that’s NitroPack’s default powerhouse setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nOn their website, there\u2019s a handy comparison of the different modes. From what I’ve seen, both Ludicrous<\/strong> and Strong<\/strong> modes are the real MVPs in NitroPack\u2019s lineup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nBut hey, customization is key! You can tweak these settings based on how your site performs. There\u2019s a whole buffet of options in the drop-down bar, covering everything from images and JavaScript to fonts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nTake the Images<\/strong> tab, for example. It\u2019s got powerful features like toggling lazy loading<\/strong> on or off, and other nifty tweaks to compress your images just right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nNow, I\u2019m a curious soul, so I couldn’t resist playing around with the settings. I switched the Image Optimization<\/strong> from high<\/strong> to low<\/strong>, just to see what would happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAs proof, I\u2019m attaching the screenshot of the Google PageSpeed Insights report for my website prior to making this change:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe difference was subtle when I ran my site through the PageSpeed Insights Tool again, but it was there. As shown in the image below, notice that the FCP of my website has increased to 1.1s (1.2s previously).<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis is where you can get experimental. Play around with these settings and watch how they transform your site. Each option even comes with a brief description and examples, making it super easy to figure out what\u2019s best for your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The beauty of NitroPack is that it understands every website is unique. There’s no cookie-cutter approach here. You have the freedom to adjust the settings to match your site’s specific needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And remember, with every tweak you make, keep a close eye on how your site is doing. A mix of manual checks and insights from Google’s tools will help you nail that perfect setup for your site’s unique digital identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nWrapping it up, I can confidently say that NitroPack is a game-changer for website speed optimization. It’s safe, efficient, and wallet-friendly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don’t just take my word for it, give it a try on different types of websites and see the remarkable improvements for yourself. Plus, you can start for free. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
