You can enable G-Zip compression on the server side to minimize the data transfer that happens when a page loads. The logic is simple. Let’s take an example that the page size is approx 30KB. Instead of transferring the entire 30KB, the server can compress it to the size of approx 5KB and then transfer it. Your browser and your has the capability to de-compress it and then load it. The advantage is that since the transfer size is less, the transfer is fast! Moreover, you consume less bandwidth.
