Improve Magento Site Speed with Gzip
No comments · Posted by Jamie in Google and SEO, Magento Ecommerce Web Design
One of the main draw backs of Magento is normally Site Speed. However there is plenty you can do to speed up a Magento Ecommerce Website, one great technique is to enable GZip Compression.
This is a simple process by making a few changes to your .htaccess file, however this should only be done by a web developer who is familiar with working with .htaccess files, and I reccomend taking a backup of the working file before making any changes.
Find the following lines in your Magento .htaccess file and replace them with the following code.
############################################
## enable apache served files compression
## http://developer.yahoo.com/performance/rules.html#gzip
# Insert filter
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
# Netscape 4.x has some problems…
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
# Netscape 4.06-4.08 have some more problems
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip
# MSIE masquerades as Netscape, but it is fine
BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
# Don’t compress images
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary
# Make sure proxies don’t deliver the wrong content
Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary
# enable resulting html compression
php_flag zlib.output_compression on
