Hello Friends, In the previous post I was talking about Leverage browser caching issue in your website and explained you the solution. Today I am going to share another method which you should do to improve your website performance and decrease website load time which is Compression of resources which again you can do with the help of .htaccess file.
You can enable Compression with the help of .htaccess file and here is the code which you have to write in .htaccess to enable compression.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 |
## ENABLE COMPRESSION ## <ifModule mod_gzip.c> mod_gzip_on Yes mod_gzip_dechunk Yes mod_gzip_item_include file .(html?|txt|css|js|php|pl)$ mod_gzip_item_include handler ^cgi-script$ mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/.* mod_gzip_item_include mime ^application/x-javascript.* mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/.* mod_gzip_item_exclude rspheader ^Content-Encoding:.*gzip.* </ifModule> ## ENABLE COMPRESSION ## |
If above code does not work then another code which may work for you are:-
Enable Compression on Apache Server
