Hi, i run my latest kirby site through https://gtmetrix.com and got a not that good C rating. [image] Then i fiddled around with the .htaccess a little bit and added some cache and gzip rules: # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------…

I use https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/ . If it gives a good score it might give SEO advantages as well. Other than that I do a few simple things.
