Nitropack

The Nitropack plugin is a solution designed to improve a website's loading speed. Here is a complete description of its features and pricing.

Plugin Features

Revolutionary Caching

Caching is essential for optimizing a website’s loading speed. In this regard, Nitropack does not disappoint its users. In fact, the solution offers a wide range of smart caching options, such as cache invalidation, cookie exclusion, cache expiration, and cache preheating. In addition to these features, the plugin helps you create separate cache files for your different devices, namely: tablets, computers, and mobile phones. In other words, you can create multiple caches for your devices to improve loading speed.

Optimizing Image Content

It’s no secret that a website without images is dull. Visual content brings your content to life, but unlike text, it’s too large and resource-intensive. Nitropack lets you compress images with or without loss of quality, so you can optimize them for better performance without sacrificing quality.

What's really great about this extension is that it converts your images to WebP while preserving the original format for browsers that don't support this format. Additionally, if your images lack height and width attributes, the Nitropack plugin enables preemptive resizing and adaptive resizing. This ensures that images fit their containers.

The High-Quality CDN

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a network of servers located around the world. When you upload your website to your physical server, the CDN stores copies of your site on these servers. Then, every time a user visits your site, the CDN serves them the copy that is geographically closest to them. The CDN extension comes with a built-in Content Delivery Network powered by Cloudflare, a leader in the field. This means you won’t have to set up a third-party CDN, which is common with caching plugins. Just install Nitropack, and you’re all set.

Code Optimization

The website loads numerous resources from the server to generate the page you see in your browser. In addition to JavaScript, your browser loads other files, namely CSS and HTML. This results in numerous interactions with the server, which are called HTTP/S requests.

If you have files that are too large, they will take a long time to load, which slows down your platform. That’s exactly why you should use NitroPack. This extension comes with a feature that lets you reduce and compress JavaScript, HTML, and CSS files.

Slow Loading

When we talk about lazy or delayed loading, we’re referring to the loading of images, videos, and iFrames that the visitor views. Instead of loading all these multimedia resources when your website’s page loads, the site will only load them when the user brings them into view. This is a useful solution because it significantly increases your page’s loading speed. Additionally, the Nitropack plugin can also detect images referenced in external files, which is ideal for certain WordPress themes.

Plugin Pricing

NitroPack offers flexible pricing. To use the extension, you can choose between a free plan and three paid plans. Of course, all plans give you access to great features. However, you’ll have to pay additional fees based on the number of page views and bandwidth usage.

With the free plan, you have unlimited access to the service. You won’t need to provide a credit or debit card. However, this plan offers 1 GB of monthly CDN bandwidth and 5,000 page views. If you have a low-traffic website, this should meet your needs. As for the Business plan, it’s available for $16.62 per month. It offers 50,000 page views per month and 25 GB of CDN bandwidth per month. The Growth and Scale plans provide access to 200,000 page views and 100 GB of bandwidth per month, and 500,000 page views and 500 GB of bandwidth per month, respectively.
