The Site Speed Accelerator is a tool that allows you to make your website extremely fast for visitors and page speed tools by using a simple interface.
It can be used by navigating to the "Speed" tab in your publisher dashboard.
The Accelerator allows you to quickly test and implement advanced site speed optimizations on your site. This allows you to quickly see what site speed adjustments are able to produce the best user experiences, page speed scores, and other related goals.

There are 3 integration methods that can be used to access the Site Speed Accelerator
Name server or Cloudflare integration options are recommended for almost all sites.
All sites should be prompted to integrate upon signing up to use The Site Speed Accelerator. Integrating via Cloudflare or WordPress plugin should provide almost instant integration and access to the full features of the Site Speed Accelerator.
Watch videos of integration with Name Server Integration and WordPress Plugins below...
NOTE: If you've completed Name Server integration, it can take up to 18 hours for DNS records to propagate so that sites can leverage The Site Speed Accelerator.
- There's no way to make this happen faster; however, you can finish configuring the tool and Ezoic will notify you via email once Name Servers are propagated and integration is fully-complete
Note: Wordpress integration provides a slightly slower score and visitor experience due to the nature of the CMS. Name server integration offers faster speed.

Technical Functions and Features Explained...
We currently offer 18 different features (and will be adding more over time). More info on all of these can be found here: https://support.ezoic.com/kb/article/what-features-does-the-site-speed-accelerator-have
How Do I Get Started?
You can make a new version by clicking “create version” and naming it. You can create as many versions as you like.
Versions let you try different combinations of features to find the one that both performs the best and fits your content and layout. There are different actions you can perform with the versions you have created that are listed under “Actions”: Edit Version, Clone Version, Clear Preview Version and Archive Version.
Clone Version:
You can also clone a version you’ve created in order to test different variations of the version you’re deciding on. For example, if you wanted to try out what effect the render critical CSS version would have in conflation with the lazy load images you could clone the CSS version and add the lazy load images function to it and test both together.
You can also preview a version you have created before you activate the version. Click "Preview" to preview the version and "Activate" to activate the version:
Preview Version:
Before activating a version, you can preview it (under actions) to review the changes on your site. You can also perform a site speed score test on a preview version. It is highly recommended that you preview any version before setting it live.
Note: When you are looking at a previewed version, you are cookied in. You will need to click "Clear Preview Version" once you are done in order to look at the original site.
Activate Version:
To finally activate a version, simply click on the version you'd like to activate and click "Activate".
You are able to manage your Site Speed Accelerator subscription by clicking “Manage Subscription” directly from the app! This will allow you to select your subscription level, add a form of payment, or cancel your subscription.
If you decide you no longer want to use our Site Speed Accelerator on your site, please make sure that you cancel your subscription before turning the Site Speed Accelerator off in your Dashboard.
