This article focuses on how to speed up a Blogger website and get a 90+ PageSpeed Insights score.

Google has announced that it will consider core web vitals as ranking factors. This means that website speed will be a serious ranking factor. Therefore, we must carefully work on website speed to maintain or improve search engine rankings.

Blogger is a product of Google and powered by fast-speed servers. Unfortunately, we as Blogspot users do not have access to the root files of the CMS to develop server rules. But fortunately, we can use these simple following methods to speed up the Blogger website.


Compress Images or Deliver Next-Gen Images

Media files likely to be used on the blog should be light in size. You may want to consider compressing the image through a different online tool before uploading it. This app will significantly increase the speed of your Blogger blog.

High dimensional images take time to load. This means that visitors to your site leave your pages without waiting.

Squoosh.app, kraken.io and iloveimg.com are the visual optimization networks that I like and use. Try to keep the image size less than 100 kB.

  • Let's say you use a lot of widgets for blogger. It would be best to remove plugins such as unused or unnecessary Facebook page widgets.
  • Too many fonts take a lot of time to load from the internet. Therefore, consider using system fonts or only fonts required for installation.
  • Not every Blogger template is the same. Some are simply well-designed or well-optimized for a search engine or SEO. With these two, the template should be quick to load.

After following the entry-level tips above, you will find that your pages load faster than before. You can also check the PageSpeed insight score before and after applying all settings.
