Performance Optimizations
Improving site speed and responsiveness is essential for both user experience and SEO. The Performance Optimizations section in RebelBoost helps enhance loading times and interactivity by addressing key performance bottlenecks. The following automated optimizations are available:
- CSS: Prioritize Critical CSS on the Initial Load – Queue non-critical CSS after LCP elements is loaded
- JavaScript: Minimize Inline JS – Optimizes inline scripts to enhance performance and maintain cleaner code.
- Images: Lazy Load Non-LCP Images – Delays loading of non-critical images to speed up initial page rendering.
- LCP: Prioritize Main LCP Element Loading – Remove main LCP element Lazy Loading (if necessary)
- INP: Optimize Response to User – Improves responsiveness by optimizing user interactions for a smoother experience. Pause non-critical parts of tasks to allow the main thread to run, resuming them later as a prioritized task to maintain responsiveness.
Metadata and Indexing
Proper metadata and indexing settings are essential for ensuring search engines interpret and display your content correctly.
- Meta Tag: Viewport – Add If Missing – Ensures a responsive design by defining how a page scales on different devices and screen sizes.
- Meta Tag: max-image-preview:large - Add If Missing – Allows search engines to display larger image previews, improving visibility in search results. When the og:image is larger than 1200px, adding this tag makes it possible for a larger image preview in search results.
- Structured Data: Move the Code to the Top of the <Head> – Prioritizes structured data placement to enhance indexing.
Content Modification
Structuring content correctly is essential and the Content Modification section in RebelBoost helps maintain a well-optimized heading structure.
- Automatically Force Single H1 – Ensures each page has only one H1 tag keeping the first H1 and relacing the subsequent H1 tags with H2, improving content hierarchy and SEO best practices.
