It improves loading times dramatically, to the point that I don’t really understand what’s the magic behind it (I’m not joking). I always thought that a bit more speed could be achieved at my websites, but not this much. I wasn’t aware that the servers that I use for my sites were capable of this speeds, and I always thought that part of the issue was using medium servers instead of top notch ones.Thank you so much guys! Keep doing your magic, I’ll spread the word about you as I really want you to succeed and last forever. Oh, and I really can’t believe how your plugin can exceed that much what other premium plugins achieve (I tried quite a few)."_

135 ## How Does BerqWP Work?
136 Unlike traditional speed optimization plugins, BerqWP optimizes your website using our proprietary optimization software called the **Photon Engine**. Instead of handling resource-intensive tasks on your web server, which can slow it down, BerqWP processes optimizations externally. This is crucial because heavy tasks like **critical CSS generation, WebP/AVIF conversion, and JavaScript optimization** can overwhelm ordinary servers when performed at scale.
137
138 Here’s how it works:
139
140 * When a webpage is added to the **Photon Engine** queue, BerqWP fetches the page’s HTML.
141 * Various optimizations are applied, including HTML minification, image conversion, lazy loading, and JavaScript execution control.
142 * Once optimized, the Photon Engine stores the **fully optimized HTML** in your website as a form of cache.
143 * To handle traffic before optimization is complete, BerqWP creates an **instant cache**, a placeholder cache with minimal optimizations, ensuring fast page loads even before full optimization.
144
145 ## 💭 Why Cloud Optimization
146 On high traffic websites, cache becomes stale fast. Every new post, comment or content edit triggers a cache rebuild which puts heavy load on your server and can slow your site down or take it offline entirely. With Cloud Optimization, all processing happens on BerqWP's servers so your server stays free to do what it does best: serve your visitors.
147
148 ## �
149 Advanced Cache for Faster Server Response Time
150 BerqWP utilizes the WordPress **advanced-cache.php** file to deliver cached pages as fast as possible. By bypassing unnecessary database queries and reducing the number of files loaded on each request, BerqWP significantly improves **server response time (TTFB – Time to First Byte)**, ensuring that your pages load within milliseconds.
151
152 ## �
153 Core Web Vitals Optimizations
154 BerqWP is designed to help websites achieve high scores on **Google’s Core Web Vitals**, improving user experience and SEO rankings.
155
156 **Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) Optimization**
157
158 * **Image Preloading:** BerqWP detects the LCP element (usually an image or banner) and preloads it to ensure it loads as quickly as possible.
159 * **WebP Conversion:** All images are converted into **WebP format**, reducing file size by **70% – 85%** while maintaining quality.
160 * **Efficient Lazy Loading:** Images and background images only load when users scroll, reducing initial load time.
161
162 **Interaction to Next Paint (INP) & JavaScript Optimization**
163
164 * **JavaScript Delay:** BerqWP delays JavaScript execution until user interaction (mouse move, click, scroll, or tap), improving initial page load speed.
165 * **Multiple Execution Modes:** Choose between different JavaScript execution modes tailored to your website’s needs.
166
167 **Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) Fixes**
168
169 * **Image Dimension Attributes:** BerqWP ensures all images have width and height attributes, preventing unexpected layout shifts.
170 * **Font Optimization:** Fonts are loaded efficiently with font-display: swap to eliminate render-blocking issues.
171
172 ## �
173 Critical CSS for Instant Rendering
174 Loading external stylesheets can delay rendering, so BerqWP generates **Critical CSS** for each page separately.
175
176 * The Critical CSS contains only the styles needed for the visible portion of the page.
177 * The remaining CSS loads **asynchronously**, ensuring fast page rendering without affecting layout or design.
178
179
180 ## �
181 BerqWP CDN – Global Performance Boost
182 BerqWP integrates with **Cloudflare CDN** to ensure static assets (images, CSS, JavaScript, web fonts) load from the nearest server to the visitor’s location. This results in:
183
184 * **Reduced latency** and improved website performance globally.
185 * Faster **Time to First Byte (TTFB)** for all users.
186
187 ## �
188 Font Optimization for CLS Stability
189 * BerqWP **extracts and preloads** fonts used in above-the-fold content, ensuring faster font rendering.
190 * Uses font-display: swap to **prevent text from disappearing while fonts load**, improving user experience.
191
192 ## �
193 Optimization Modes for Flexibility
194 BerqWP offers four [optimization modes](https://berqwp.com/help-center/berqwp-optimization-modes/):
195
196 * **Standard** – Core optimizations including image optimization, page cache, and URL prefetch. Maximum compatibility.
197 * **Smart** – Asynchronous JavaScript and CSS loading. Highly stable, great for complex sites.
198 * **Blaze** – Asynchronous CSS with delayed JavaScript. Design-first optimization for high performance with visual stability.
199 * **Turbo** – Delayed CSS and JavaScript for minimal initial requests and best possible performance.
200
201 For best results, we recommend starting with **Turbo mode**, but stepping down to Blaze or Smart can help if compatibility issues arise.
202
203

221 == Frequently Asked Questions ==
222
223 = Why is the plugin slug searchpro when your product is called BerqWP? =
224 Early in development we registered our plugin under the searchpro namespace on WordPress.org. Unfortunately, WordPress.org doesn’t allow slugs to be renamed once created.

225
226 = How does BerqWP work? =

255
256 = Which hosting providers are supported? =
257 You can use BerqWP with any hosting provider. If your hosting provider has a built-in speed optimizer, make sure to disable it.
258
259 = Are multilingual and e-commerce websites supported? =
260 Yes, you can use BerqWP for e-commerce and multilingual websites.
261
