Faster Image Load Time
Reduction in Page Load Time
That means more site engagement
Shop The World faced significant challenges in enhancing their online shopping experience. The site experienced slow image load times, which negatively impacted user experience and conversion rates. The goal was to ensure faster performance while maintaining high-quality visuals. This required delivering optimized images in various formats and sizes across multiple devices. Personalization was also crucial, as the company aimed to tailor images to each user's device for a premium experience. To handle the increasing volume of images, Shop The World needed a scalable solution that could integrate seamlessly with their existing platform.
To address these challenges, Shop The World implemented N7’s suite of solutions, Adaptive Image Optimization (AIO) for real-time image resizing and compression based on device specifications, and comprehensive security through fully managed Web Application Firewall (WAF), DDoS protection, and bot mitigation. This seamless integration required no code changes, streamlining the onboarding process. Advanced compression techniques drastically reduced image sizes while maintaining quality.
As a result, image sizes and load times are reduced by 50-60%, site load times have dropped from over 20 seconds to under 8 seconds and bounce rates have decreased. These improvements significantly enhance the shopping experience and increases engagement, reinforcing Shop The World’s online presence and performance.
