Go Daddy Makes The Web Faster by enabling mod_pagespeed
Blog post from Google Cloud
Go Daddy, the leading web hosting provider and largest domain name registrar, has integrated Google's mod_pagespeed into its Linux web hosting services to enhance website performance as part of Google's "Make The Web Faster" initiative. Mod_pagespeed is an open-source module for Apache web servers that automatically optimizes web content by applying performance best practices, which include improvements for JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and image formats like JPEG and PNG. This feature, which is now available to Go Daddy customers, has led to significant reductions in webpage load times, as evidenced by examples like the photo-blog AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com experiencing a 48% decrease in load time. The module speeds up initial site visits by reducing payload size and enhancing compression, while repeat visits benefit from more efficient caching and minimized resource sizes. Go Daddy CEO Bob Parsons highlighted the straightforward implementation and significant benefits for businesses, emphasizing the importance of faster websites for user experience and business outcomes.
