    Dynamic websites are usually created with a CMS (content management system) such as Wordpress or webflow. A CMS will make queries to the website's database to dynamically generate pages. This causes a lot of work for the web server and therefore uses more energy. Static sites, on the other hand, will be generated as individual HTML files for each page with the help of a static site generator. There are many static site generators to choose from (I personally like Jekyll and Eleventy). These tools can help reduce your file sizes tremendously.

  3. Make your website faster and save bandwidth. TinyPNG optimizes your PNG images by 50-80% while preserving full transparency!
    When preparing raster image files for development, you should always squoosh your raster images down with tools like TinyPNG or ShortPixel that can compress files without effecting quality. This could help bring the size of your images down significantly. The final step in curating small, quality raster images for your website is to save them as a WebP instead of JPEG or PNG. WebP lossless images are around 26% smaller in size than PNGs!
