Page Load
The process of fetching and rendering a webpage, measured from request to full interactivity. Page load speed affects user experience, conversion rates, and search rankings. Monitor load performance and optimize bottlenecks regularly.
CDN
Performance
Content Delivery Network—a distributed network of servers that delivers web content from locations geographically closest to each visitor. CDNs dramatically reduce latency and load times for global audiences while providing redundancy if one server fails. Framer hosts all sites on a global CDN automatically, ensuring fast performance worldwide without additional configuration.
Image Optimization
Performance
The process of reducing image file sizes while maintaining acceptable visual quality for faster page loads. Optimized images can be 10x smaller than originals without noticeable quality loss, dramatically improving performance. Framer automatically optimizes uploaded images, converting to efficient formats like WebP where supported.
Video
Media
Moving visual content embedded on a page for explanation, demonstration, or storytelling. Video can increase engagement but may hurt performance if it is unoptimized. Use compression, modern formats, and lazy loading to keep page load fast.
