That's a great move! Optimizing site speed is one of the most impactful technical SEO actions you can take. Compressing images and enabling browser caching will definitely help reduce load times, which not only boosts your SEO but also improves user engagement and conversion rates.

As an additional tip, consider:

• Using a CDN (Content Delivery Network) to serve assets faster globally

• Minimizing JavaScript and CSS files

• Implementing lazy loading for images and videos

Tools like Google PageSpeed Insights or GTmetrix can help you identify specific performance issues to tackle next.

Keep up the good work!

To ensure my website has a strong and effective technical SEO, I will first prioritize the content. Eliminating old or irrelevant content and replacing it with accurate, up-to-date content would be my ideal starting point. Next, I ensure that links are active and working, and regularly update the site map after each change to the website. Finally, I would focus on the user experience and ensure it is the same regardless of device. Having this consistency would be pivotal to both the website's technical SEO and those who visit the site on varying devices.

Improving the site speed can help with my SEO. At first, I can use Google's PageSpeed Insights to check on my site speed. Afterwards, I can improve my site speeds by doing image optimization, such as resizing images to the dimensions I am going to display them, and compressing the images to the right file size. These not only apply to desktop but also mobile website. Talking about mobile optimization, responsive deisgn is important to ensure seamless consistent users' experience. Besides, be aware of any pop-ups on website that can potentially interfere users' experience.
