A tool that speeds up website load times by optimizing images, minifying code, and delivering content from edge servers closer to website visitors
HeliumLift is a content delivery network and website optimization tool designed to improve website performance and load times. It works by minifying code, compressing images, and delivering static content from edge servers located closer to website visitors.
When HeliumLift is implemented on a website, it analyzes the site's content and assets to find opportunities for optimization. It losslessly compresses images to reduce file sizes without sacrificing quality. JavaScript, CSS, and HTML files are minified by removing unnecessary whitespace and comments to reduce bandwidth usage.
In addition to optimizations, HeliumLift uses a global content delivery network (CDN) consisting of edge servers situated in various locations around the world. As visitors access a website using HeliumLift, static files like images, CSS and JS are served from the nearest edge server, reducing latency and load times.
By combining code and image optimizations with distributed edge servers, HeliumLift can often achieve significant performance improvements for websites. Page load times are accelerated, especially for visitors farther away from a site's origin servers. This can lead to increased visitor engagement and lower bounce rates.
As a software as a service (SaaS) product, HeliumLift requires no hardware or infrastructure changes for websites using it. It also handles scaling automatically as website traffic grows. The service offers customizable plans based on the number of monthly page views or bandwidth needs.
