Title: Performance Center, powered by Imagekit
Description: Automated image performance optimization for your website to take immediate corrective actions
Imagekit has kept revisiting the importance of image optimization for a few years now. As an organization, we started shop in October 2016, betting on the success of our real time image optimization on all platforms. Thanks to the stupendous efficiency of Imagekit, we steadily won customers year after year, with success stories including Hopscotch, Dineout, Nykaa.Com, Car Dekho and 91 Mobiles.
The Problems
In our 4 year journey, we discovered that the most popular tools measuring image optimization only gave a generic report about the overall website performance. The reports neither include information pin pointing what is wrong with these images nor tell you how to fix these errors. Besides, you have to run these image optimization tests manually.
The Solution
This year, we decided to rise to the challenges posed by generic reporting tools. We put together our own Performance Center, a feature that lets you automate image performance optimization for your website on both desktop and mobile. What’s more, you get alerts about specific performance bottlenecks to take immediate corrective actions.
Key Functionalities
Tracking performance on Key Pages
Make a list of the key pages on your website and monitor image optimization on the associated URLs. These mostly include the home page, listing pages and product pages.
Daily performance analysis reports
The Performance Center is built right on top of Imagekit’s website analyser for images. That is why the feature is able to provide you:
Detailed image optimization analysis and
Historical optimization graphs on your dashboard
E-mail alerts for critical issues
You can opt for a weekly or monthly performance alert and get actionable items mailed to you and set your image optimization straight.
Setting Up Performance Center
The first step is Integrating Performance Center with Image kit. Navigating to Performance Center, click on Track New URL to add URLs whose images you need to optimize. A good practice is to add 3-4 URLs.
Once you add the URLs, you can:
Monitor and fix performance issues
Generate Historical Performance Data
Summarizing, here are the list of key benefits that makes Performance Center a winner:
Precisely charting out all the image optimization issues
Being paired with Imagekit to get exact parameters to solve said problems
Increases your firm’s adoption of Imagekit, extracting the maximum features from it
Your reports are now automated
Projection of a trend showing the progress of your website’s image optimization
It is important to note that the feature, at present, is only available to paid users. So, it helps to look at the pricing plans or better, get in touch with Imagekit.
