Easy Optimizer – Lazy-load images, videos & iframes

Easy Optimizer is a simple and lightweight plugin that helps improve your website’s performance by:
– Lazy-loading images, background images, iframes and videos
– Preloading pages to speed up navigations
– Optionally rewriting image URLs to a ShortPixel CDN for next-gen format delivery (WebP/AVIF) and optimization

Key Features

• Serve images in next-gen formats via ShortPixel CDN (WebP/AVIF when supported).
• Lazy-load images and iframes to reduce initial page weight.
• Lazy-load background images and HTML5 videos.
• Page preloading to improve perceived navigation speed.
• Elementor compatible.

External Services

This plugin optionally rewrites image URLs to ShortPixel’s CDN to serve optimized images:

• Service: ShortPixel CDN (https://cdn.shortpixel.ai/)
• What it does: When “Image Optimization” is enabled in plugin settings, image URLs on your site (for example, https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/image.jpg) are rewritten so that visitors’ browsers request images from ShortPixel’s CDN (for example, https://cdn.shortpixel.ai/spai/…/https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/image.jpg). This enables ShortPixel to serve optimized, next-gen formats like WebP/AVIF where supported.
• What data is sent: Only the image URL requested by the visitor’s browser is requested from ShortPixel’s CDN. No additional site data or personal user data is sent by the plugin itself.
• Why: Using the CDN can reduce image weight and speed delivery of images.
