This week I focused on image performance. Faster pages make the reading experience much better.

What I learned

Large media files can slow down a simple blog more than expected. I tested image dimensions and file size to keep quality while reducing load time.

Practical actions

  1. Used appropriately sized images.
  2. Avoided loading full-size assets where not needed.
  3. Kept alt text descriptive and short.

Outcome

Pages feel snappier now, especially on slower connections.
