Many wordpress blogger always spending some time for speeding up there blogs. In this aritcle I will tell you how you can speed up your wordpress blog with easy steps. Loading your website is very important. If your blog or site not more fast then bounce rate of your website will be high.
There is apache module called zlib. which is used for compression.
zlib is a lossless data-compression library that will help you to serve your pages faster. This will compress the static data of your website. like images, css and media and javascript files. It compresses the PHP that WordPress sends to your visitor’s browser so that it displays much more quickly. Compressing and sending is much faster than sending the PHP in its full size format.
If you are using dedicated hosting service then easy to make changes in your files but if you are using the shared hosting then first you need to check zlib compression is available or not.
For checking zlib library create the phpinfo() file and see the zlib is there or not.
Mostly 99% shared hosting gives zlib compression facility. Just open your header.php file from your wordpres theme folder and following code in that file in top of file section.
<?php ini_set(’zlib.output_compression’, ‘On’); ini_set(’zlib.output_compression_level’, ‘1′); ?>
This change will save your bandwidth and webpage will load faster. you can see the result after doing this change. In my site I saw the difference.
Website will load 3 to 4 times faster than earlier.
How to speed up the wordpress blog
Hi! I just thought I would share this with You… it’s an interesting website! Good job!
“there is apache module called zlib”
You probably mean mod_deflate.
What you describe is PHP’s compression. You can add zlib.output_compression = to your php.ini configuration file. This will compress the output regardless of mod_deflate.
But this will only work with files passed through the PHP handler. Apache’s mod_deflate can work on any text content (PHP output, CSS or JS).
This is a common mistake, to enable compression for PHP output and not to enable it for CSS and JS.
Check your site with http://siteloadtest.com
You have to configure compression in Apache settings, not in php.ini
I agree with our comment.
