After the speed test finishes and you are reviewing the recommendations, you may be notified that some resources are serving up the same content, but different URLs. Obviously, this is redundant and should be fixed. This can happen for several reasons, but more likely if there are multiple people working within a site at various times. If there are too many identical resources served from the same page, it slows down your page load time and is inefficient. Every byte counts and reducing the number of requests and resources is a straightforward way to help get faster page load times.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row margin_top=&#8221;60&#8243; margin_bottom=&#8221;0&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1636595147911{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1636595227743{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;padding-left: 10px !important;background-color: #f6f6f6 !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;17233&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;<b>Lighthouse<\/b>&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:p|font_size:20|text_align:center|color:%232b2b2b|line_height:1&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Lighthouse is an open-source tool that is used to run an audit against your web pages and provides scores and suggestions for improving page performance, accessibility, SEO, and more.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=&#8221;Learn More&#8221; style=&#8221;flat&#8221; color=&#8221;primary&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; i_icon_fontawesome=&#8221;fas fa-location-arrow&#8221; add_icon=&#8221;true&#8221; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dotcom-tools.com%2Fweb-performance%2Flighthouse%2F&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1636595173585{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;background-color: #f6f6f6 !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;17284&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;<b>PageSpeed Terms<\/b>&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:p|font_size:20|text_align:center|color:%232b2b2b|line_height:1&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">PageSpeed Insights is a tool created by Google that reports on the performance of a page on both mobile and desktop devices, and provides suggestions on how that page may be improved.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=&#8221;Learn More&#8221; style=&#8221;flat&#8221; color=&#8221;primary&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; i_icon_fontawesome=&#8221;fas fa-location-arrow&#8221; add_icon=&#8221;true&#8221; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dotcom-tools.com%2Fweb-performance%2Fpagespeed%2F&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1636595196399{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-right: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;background-color: #f6f6f6 !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;17281&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;<b>YSlow<\/b>&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:p|font_size:20|text_align:center|color:%232b2b2b|line_height:1&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">YSlow is an open-source website analysis tool that can be used to identify web page performance issues.
