EasyBooster was built to solve exactly that. Simply activate the plugin, and it automatically handles the following optimizations. No settings screen to configure. **What it does** * Preconnect to Google Fonts and Gravatar * Lazy loading of embedded YouTube, Vimeo, and Google Maps content * Automatic WebP conversion of images in your content * LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) image priority loading and preload optimization * Font display optimization (font-display: swap, same-origin font preload) * Delayed firing of the GA4 tracking tag * Removal of the emoji script * Deferred script loading to reduce render blocking * Instant page prefetching for faster navigation * Split CSS loading for the block editor All of these directly affect your PageSpeed Insights (PSI) score, particularly LCP and Core Web Vitals. **Built for safety** EasyBooster is designed to automatically avoid the kinds of trouble that commonly arise from plugin conflicts (broken layouts, disrupted styling, features breaking). When page builder plugins (Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, etc.) or caching plugins( LiteSpeed Cache, W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, etc.) are active, any feature that could conflict is automatically disabled. EasyBooster never rewrites your existing HTML or CSS — it only adds or supplements functionality to boost performance. Even if a given feature can’t take effect on your setup, the plugin is built to fail safely without breaking your site. **Who it’s for** * Anyone looking to boost their PageSpeed Insights, Core Web Vitals, or LCP score * Anyone who wants faster page speed without complicated setup * Anyone specifically looking for preconnect, lazy loading, or WebP conversion * Blogs, e-commerce sites, and business sites with lots of images, video, or map embeds ### External services EasyBooster does not add any third-party service to your site on its own. It only optimizes the loading of resources that **you have already added** (a Google Fonts stylesheet, a GA4 tag, a YouTube/Vimeo/Google Maps embed, or Gravatar avatars). For those resources it adds `preconnect`/`dns-prefetch` resource hints so the browser can open the connection earlier, and for embeds it defers loading until the visitor interacts. These hints cause the visitor’s browser to make an early network connection( which exposes the visitor’s IP address, as any request to that host would) only when the corresponding resource is already present on the page. The plugin itself sends no additional personal data. Additionally, when your site enqueues a third- party font stylesheet (other than Google Fonts), EasyBooster may fetch that stylesheet once from your server (not the visitor’s browser) to read its `@font-face` rules and apply `font-display: swap`. This server-side request downloads only the CSS file you already load; it sends no personal data and the result is cached. The services involved are: **Google Fonts** — Used only when your site already enqueues a Google Fonts stylesheet. EasyBooster adds a `preconnect` hint to fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com so the font can load faster. The browser connects to Google (exposing the visitor’s IP address) when the page loads. Terms: https://policies.google.com/terms — Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy — Google Fonts privacy: https://developers.google. com/fonts/faq/privacy **Google Analytics 4 / Google Tag Manager** — Used only when your site already includes a GA4 (gtag.js) tag or references googletagmanager.com. EasyBooster delays the firing of an existing GA4 tag until the visitor interacts (or after 5 seconds), and adds a `preconnect` hint to www.googletagmanager.com. Data is sent to Google by your own tag, on the same events as before — EasyBooster only changes the timing; it does not add tracking. Terms: https://policies.google.com/terms — Privacy: https:// policies.google.com/privacy **Google Maps** — Used only when your content already embeds a Google Map. EasyBooster replaces the embed with a lightweight placeholder and adds a `dns-prefetch`/`preconnect` hint to maps.googleapis.com. The map (and any request to Google) loads only after the visitor clicks the placeholder. Terms: https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/ terms — Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy **Gravatar** — Used only when avatar display (“Show Avatars”) is enabled in your WordPress discussion settings, in which case WordPress core loads avatars from secure. gravatar.com. EasyBooster only adds a `dns-prefetch` hint for that host; the avatar images themselves are handled by WordPress core, not by this plugin. Terms: https:// wordpress.com/tos/ — Privacy: https://automattic.com/privacy/ **YouTube / Vimeo** — Used only when your content already embeds a YouTube or Vimeo video. EasyBooster defers the embed until the visitor interacts and adds a `dns- prefetch` hint for the relevant hosts (youtube.com, i.ytimg.com, player.vimeo.com). The video (and any request to these services) loads only when the visitor plays it. YouTube — Terms: https://www.youtube.com/t/terms — Privacy: https://policies. google.com/privacy Vimeo — Terms: https://vimeo.com/terms — Privacy: https://vimeo. com/privacy ## Installation 1. Install and activate the plugin. 2. That’s it — no further configuration is required. ## FAQ ### Can I use this alongside other caching or speed plugins? Yes. It’s designed to be used alongside them. Any processing that could conflict is automatically adjusted, so you can add it to your existing setup without changes. ### Do I need to configure anything? No complicated setup is required. It works as soon as you activate it. ### Will it change how my site looks? No. It never rewrites your existing HTML, CSS, or design. It only adds or supplements background processing, so there’s no visual impact. ### What is preconnect? It’s a mechanism that lets the browser establish a connection to a resource (like Google Fonts or YouTube) in advance, reducing the wait time once that resource is actually needed. ### How does the WebP conversion work? Images in your post content are automatically converted to WebP format to improve load times. Conversion happens gradually in the background so it doesn’t interfere with your site’s operation. Your original images are left untouched, and WebP versions are served automatically to supporting browsers. ### Does it work with both classic and block themes? Yes, both are supported. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “EasyBooster” is open source software. The following people have contributed to this plugin.
