<p>¿What is <a href="https://developers.google.com/chrome/whitepapers/prerender" rel="nofollow ugc">Prerender</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_prefetching" rel="nofollow ugc">Prefetch</a>? Nice question. It’s a new-navigators technique (ok i’m a liar, Mozilla do it from 2003!) that loads in background the next page you believe the visitor is going to visit.</p>
<p>This plugin puts the required metatag in your WordPress pages, based on settings you can change, allowing those compatible navigators to do a pre-load of the next page. When the visitor try to visit that page Boom! it just appears without need to wait for it!</p>
<h4>Testing Prerender and Prefetch Support in your navigator</h4>
<p>You can <a href="http://prerender-test.appspot.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">test here Chrome’s prerender</a> with any page.</p>

<p>*When installing, remember to set the server’s load limit on settings.<br />

<p>This plugin does only one thing: it allows you to prerender specific pages / posts on your WordPress site.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://developers.google.com/chrome/whitepapers/prerender" rel="nofollow ugc">prerendering</a> feature which will make your website faster, as the browser will fetch and render the entire next page on the background.</p>
<p>Therefore, if you know which page your visitors are most likely to visit next, you can preload it. The User Experience (UX) will therefore be slightly better.</p>
<h4>Getting Started</h4>
<p>If you want more in-depth explanations, we’ve written a mini-tutorial on our blog: <a href="https://themeavenue.net/behavior-flow-faster-wordpress/" rel="nofollow ugc">Behavior Flow: Speed Up Your WordPress Site</a></p>
<ol>
<li>Firstly, you need to determine how your users traverse and interact with your site. Simply <a href="https://www.google.com/analytics/web/#home/" rel="nofollow ugc">sign in to Google Analytics</a> and go to the Behavior Flow page (<a href="https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2785577?hl=en" rel="nofollow ugc">Analytics Help</a>).</li>
<li>Login to your WordPress site, install and activate this plugin.</li>
<li>Edit the page where most visitors land (<em>most likely your homepage</em>).</li>
<li>Scroll down to the meta box “Page to Prerender” and select the next page from the dropdown menu (the one that most visitors will browse next).</li>
<li>Hit the “Update” button!</li>
</ol>
<h4>Cons</h4>
<p>Enabling page prerendering will likely increase server load. You should figure out a good balance between prerendering and increasing the server load. Visitors that land on your site will request the entire next page even if they do not visit it…</p>
