## Descripción

Speed up your WordPress site by optimizing page performance with Jetpack Boost. 
Easily activate one-click optimizations to boost your Core Web Vitals.

Did you know that a faster website:-

 * Ranks higher on Google.
 * Improves bounce rate (people stay on your site for longer).
 * Increases your conversion rate.

Increase your website performance and speed up your website with one-click optimizations
that supercharge your WordPress site’s performance and improve core web vitals scores
for better search engine listings.

Improving Core Web Vitals helps you rank higher on Google. A faster website also
improves your SEO, helps you reduce your bounce rate and increase your ecommerce
conversion rate.

 * Largest Contentful Paint (LCP): Measures loading performance. Improve your LCP
   and improve your website loading speed.
 * First Input Delay (FID): Measures interactivity. To improve user experience pages
   should have a low FID.
 * Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS): Measures visual stability. Lowering your CLS helps
   improve your user experience.

### Performance Modules

Optimize your website with the same techniques used on the world’s most successful
websites.

Each technique that is used to increase website performance is packaged up as a 
module that you can activate and try out.

Currently, the plugin has 6 performance modules available:

 1.  _Optimize CSS Loading_ generates Critical CSS for your homepage, posts and pages.
     This can allow your content to show up on the screen much faster, particularly
     for viewers using mobile devices.
 2.  Read more about critical CSS generation at [web.dev](https://jetpack.com/redirect/?source=jetpack-boost-critical-css)
 3.  _Page Cache_ speeds up your site by saving pages as static files. These files 
     are quickly served to visitors, reducing load times and enhancing user experience.
 4.  _Defer Non-Essential JavaScript_ moves some tasks to after the page loads, so 
     that important visual information can be seen sooner and your website loads quicker.
 5.  Read more about deferring JavaScript at [web.dev](https://jetpack.com/redirect/?source=jetpack-boost-defer-js)
 6.  _Image Guide_ is a must-have feature for anyone who wants to optimize the images
     on their website. With this guide, you can ensure that the images on your site
     are the right size and dimensions, which is critical for improving user experience,
     page speed, and site ranking. Following the tips and best practices outlined in
     the guide, you can reduce image file sizes and speed up your site. Check out our
     [support page](https://jetpack.com/support/jetpack-boost/image-performance-guide/)
     to learn more about this feature and how it can help you achieve a faster and 
     smoother website experience for your users.
 7.  _Image CDN_ allows your site to serve automatically-resized images in modern web
     formats directly from Jetpack’s worldwide Content Delivery Network.
 8.  Read more about Image CDNs at [web.dev](https://web.dev/image-cdns/)
 9.  _Concatenate and Minify CSS and JS_ combines and shrinks your JavaScript and CSS
     resources to reduce the number and size of requests to your server, ensuring your
     content loads faster.
 10. Read more about minifying files at [web.dev](https://web.dev/minify-css/)

Don’t want to have to manually generate your critical CSS each time you update your
site? Let us do the heavy lifting for you with automated critical CSS – each time
you update your site we will automatically regenerate your critical CSS and update
your performance scores. Upgrading also gives you dedicated email support access.

## Preguntas frecuentes

### What does Jetpack Boost do to help speed up my WordPress site?

Jetpack Boost makes small changes to the way that data is sent from your WordPress
site to your users’ browser, to enable the browser to display your site faster.

Jetpack Boost includes a growing number of separate features which can be turned
on individually to improve your site’s performance. These include:

 * **Optimize CSS Loading**: This feature determines the most important CSS that
   your site needs to display your site’s initial content as quickly as possible,
   and embeds it directly into your site header.
 * **Page Cache**: This feature stores your website’s pages as static HTML files,
   bypassing the need for dynamic generation. This means visitors receive pages 
   faster, reducing wait times and improving overall site performance.
 * **Defer Non-Essential JavaScript**: This feature forces all of the JavaScript
   which is not deemed essential to displaying your site to load after your site’s
   main content has been loaded.
 * **Image CDN**: This feature automatically resizes images to a more appropriate
   size for your visitors’ screens, converts them to modern image formats, and serves
   them from Jetpack’s worldwide network of servers.
 * **Concatenate JS**: This feature reduces the size of your JavaScript resources,
   and automatically combines them into fewer files, allowing your site to load 
   faster with fewer requests.
 * **Concatenate CSS**: As with concatenating JavaScript, this feature shrinks your
   CSS files and allows them to load with fewer requests.

### What speed improvements can I expect when using Jetpack Boost?

Website Performance is complicated and can be affected by a number of factors. As
a result, it is difficult to accurately predict how much impact it will have on 
each site.

Generally, the lower your speed score is to begin with, the more Jetpack Boost may
impact your performance. We have seen user reports of up to 25 Speed Score points
improvement simply by installing and using Jetpack Boost.

However, as performance can be impacted by so many factors, it is also possible 
for Jetpack Boost to have a small negative performance impact in some rare cases.

We recommend that you install Jetpack Boost, and try it for yourself. It includes
a tool for measuring your Speed Score, to check what impact it has on your site.

### Can I also defer non-essential CSS with Jetpack Boost?

Jetpack Boost automatically defers non-essential CSS if its “Optimize CSS Loading”
feature is enabled.

The “Optimize CSS Loading” feature identifies the most important CSS rules your 
site needs to display your pages as quickly as possible (commonly called “Critical
CSS”), and defers all other CSS rules from loading until your main content has loaded.

### What are Web Vitals?

Web Vitals are the measurements that Google uses to better understand the user experience
on a website. By improving Web Vitals scores you’re also improving the user experience
on your site.

You can read more about Web Vitals on [web.dev](https://jetpack.com/redirect/?source=jetpack-boost-vitals)

### How does Jetpack Boost plugin improve Core Web Vitals?

Each Core Web Vital relates to an aspect of how quickly your site can load and appear
on new visitors’ screens.

Jetpack Boost makes small changes to the way that data is sent from your WordPress
site to your users’ browsers, to enable your content to load faster. As a result,
it can improve your Core Web Vitals scores.

For example, our “Optimize CSS Loading” feature ensures the most important CSS rules
are sent to users’ browsers as early as possible, improving both First Contentful
Paint (FCP) and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) scores.

### Does this plugin require Jetpack?

Jetpack Boost is a part of the Jetpack brand, but it doesn’t require Jetpack plugin
to run. This is a separate plugin from Jetpack and it will always remain that way.

### Will this plugin be able to improve performance on any website?

This plugin includes a range of performance improvements, which can help almost 
any WordPress site perform better.

However, if your site is already extremely well optimized, Jetpack Boost may not
have much room to improve it.

Jetpack Boost includes a tool for measuring your site’s Speed Score – we encourage
users to try it out and see what impact it can have for them.

### How do I know if it’s working?

Every site is different and so performance benefits for each module may vary from
site to site. That’s why we recommend that you measure the performance improvements
on your site by enabling the performance modules one by one. There are many tools
out there that you can use for free to measure performance improvements:

 * [WebPageTest.org](https://jetpack.com/redirect/?source=jetpack-boost-webpagetest)
 * [web.dev/measure](https://jetpack.com/redirect/?source=jetpack-boost-measure)
 * [PageSpeed Insights](https://jetpack.com/redirect/?source=jetpack-boost-pagespeed)
 * [GTMetrix](https://jetpack.com/redirect/?source=jetpack-boost-gtmetrix)

Google PageSpeed measurements are built-in the Jetpack Boost dashboard.

### Is Speed Optimization with Jetpack Boost safe?

Yes, it’s safe to try Jetpack Boost on any WordPress site.

Jetpack Boost does not alter your site’s content, it only modifies the way the content
is sent to the user’s browser to allow it to display faster.

As a result, all of Jetpack Boost’s features can safely be turned off in the event
of an incompatibility with your other plugins.

### How does Jetpack Boost compare with other speed optimization plugins?

Speed Optimization plugins for WordPress can be complicated and opaque for users.
They often offer columns of checkboxes with little explanation, and don’t include
tools to measure the impact of each change or choice users make.

Jetpack Boost aims to be as easy to use as possible, and includes a Speed Score 
indicator to help users immediately measure the impact of their choices.

### Does it work with static page cache?

Absolutely! If you have plugins like WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache installed –
Jetpack Boost is only going to help increase the performance benefits! Keep in mind
that you need to wait for the cache to clear for Jetpack Boost improvements to show
up.

### Can Jetpack Boost make my website load faster if I have a large database?

Jetpack Boost does not include any optimizations that target large databases at 
this time. However, watch this space – we are always looking for new ways to help
our users perform better.

### Does Jetpack Boost help with image optimization?

Jetpack Boost’s Image CDN feature automatically converts your images to more modern
web formats, resulting in smaller image file sizes without a loss in quality.

### Is Jetpack Boost compatible with other caching and speed optimization plugins?

With few exceptions, Jetpack Boost has no problems running alongside most caching
and speed optimization plugins. As a guideline, we don’t recommend enabling the 
same feature in multiple optimization plugins.

For example, if two plugins attempt to defer your non-essential JavaScripts, then
they may end up conflicting with each other and cause display problems on your site.

If you run into compatibility issues, please do let us know. You can drop us a line
on [the Jetpack Boost Support Forums](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack-boost/)
at any time.

This is a really good plugin, it makes you remember stuff you might left behind 
and so on.. however when you get a “Mobile Score 39” you are flying blind, since
there is not a single clue why is that number that…[new tip: the score is powered
by Google’s Lighthouse engine thanks for the data ] Im not asking for the solution,
that might be a great add-on to upsell but, now im only thinking: “Why on earth 
im 39 on mobile if im using the twenty twenty five plain vanilla template? what 
have they left out?” So, I would say including some hints might boost my review 
at least one full point. thanks!

Very easy to use and sped up the LCP considerably. It’s hard to tell when I actually
need to regenerate the critical CSS and kind of slow to do it but that’s a minor
concern.
