What is Gzip?

GZIP compression is bundling (zipping) pages on a web server before the page is sent to the visitor. This saves bandwidth and therefore increases the loading speed of the page significantly. The visitors' web browser then automatically unzips the pages.

Enable Via Plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-and-enable-gzip-compression/

Reason for not working

  • Run on diffrent Server
    • Enable compression on NGINX webservers
    • Enable compression on Apache webservers
    • Enable compression on Litespeed webservers

Referance link:

https://varvy.com/pagespeed/enable-compression.html

Edited (I am achive compression using following code)

    AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain #content encoding Speed
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html #content encoding Speed
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml #content encoding Speed
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css #content encoding Speed
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xml #content encoding Speed
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xhtml+xml #content encoding Speed
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/rss+xml #content encoding Speed
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript #content encoding Speed
        AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript #content encoding Speed
        AddType x-font/otf .otf #content encoding Speed
        AddType x-font/ttf .ttf #content encoding Speed
        AddType x-font/eot .eot #content encoding Speed
        AddType x-font/woff .woff #content encoding Speed
        AddType image/x-icon .ico #content encoding Speed
        AddType image/png .png #content encoding Speed
        # content encoding Speed -- Ends here

if your website is on live server you can check if Gzip compression is on/off online using this website http://checkgzipcompression.com/

OR

To check in chrome, Open Developer Tools by pressing F12.

  • Go to network tab.
  • Reload the page, so that it can capture the all request.
  • Find the response header Content-Encoding: gzip
