Embed Optimizer

Embed Optimizer is a WordPress plugin designed to improve website performance by optimizing how embedded content such as videos, iframes, and social media posts are loaded. The plugin implements lazy loading for embeds, deferring their loading until they are about to become visible in the viewport. It reduces initial page load times and improves Core Web Vitals scores by minimizing unnecessary resource loading. Embed Optimizer automatically detects various embed types and applies appropriate optimization strategies for each. The plugin works seamlessly with popular embed providers including YouTube, Vimeo, Twitter, Instagram, and generic iframes. It requires no configuration and automatically optimizes embeds upon activation. Embed Optimizer is part of the WordPress Performance Team's initiative to improve WordPress site speed and user experience. The plugin is valuable for content-heavy websites with multiple embeds seeking performance improvements.
