Aimy Speed Optimization v3.5.0 allows to optimize the loading of images using the well-known techniques of deferred loading and lazy loading.
Images are valuable content for a website. However, loading them takes time. As browsers download all images referenced on a page before rendering, your visitors need to wait for all images to be downloaded — even if some of them are initially out of your visitors' view and require scrolling to be seen.
Therefore Aimy Speed Optimization allows you to load a definable set of images after the page has already been rendered: Your website's visitors can start reading your content before all images are downloaded completely.
Aimy Speed Optimization allows you to choose between two well-known techniques:
Deferred Loading of Images
All selected images are loaded right after the page has been rendered by the browser.
Lazy Loading of Images
All selected images are loaded right before they get near the visitor's view (i.e. by scrolling).
Besides that, Aimy Speed Optimization allows to add missing image dimensions
(width and height attributes) to the images used on your website, which
further reduces the time required by browsers to render them and show them to
your visitors.
