Improve Speed by Removing "Speed" Plugins?

So, several months ago, Ezoic reached out to me and asked if I wanted to be part of the Ezoic Leap beta.

I was like, “what in the world is that?”

It’s a new product from Ezoic that is supposed to help with site speed, but more specifically, it is designed to improve Google Core Web Vital scores.

I have been using Leap on my niche site Own The Yard for the last few months and have just published a review on it here.

I have discovered that there are actually some great side benefits to Ezoic Leap besides site speed and improved Core Web Vitals.

Leap is free for those who are with Ezoic, and it can take the place of many of the expensive plugins that we’re all using.

If you have Leap installed, you no longer need caching plugins like WP Rocket or W3 Super Cache, you don’t need image optimization plugins like Imagify or ShortPixel, and it also takes the place of CDNs as well.

Potential savings there.

But the most important question: does it actually help with Core Web Vitals? And is it possible to get a perfect score with it?

One of the primary selling points of the tool is that it allows you to start displaying server-side ads.

I explain more about what this means technically in the post, but to summarize, it means that those with ad blockers will still see ads and you’ll still get earnings from those visitors.

See the screenshots from the Own The Yard reports, read how I found implementing the changes, and whether or not the perfect score is possible in my Ezoic Leap Review here.
