Exciting Dirigible Theme Updates to Supercharge Your Site Speed
Learn how our enhancements boost your website’s speed
We continually refine our theme to improve your site’s performance. With our latest structural changes, your website runs even faster—giving visitors a seamless experience from the moment they arrive. Here’s how these updates elevate your online presence.
Key improvements in our latest update
We’ve rolled out several structural upgrades that directly improve your site’s speed. Our optimized storage strategy reduces server strain, giving visitors quicker access to your content. By storing essential details—like whether a page includes a hero image or background—we’ve streamlined the loading process. It’s like decluttering your digital workspace: when your site knows exactly what to load, it gets to work faster.
Streamlined asset storage:
We refined how the theme stores assets to cut down server load and boost efficiency.
Hero and background logic:
Instead of recalculating whether a page has a hero or background image on every load—especially when seamless navigation is enabled—we now cache that value.
Optimized page load:
These changes make your site noticeably faster, so visitors can engage with your content immediately. Your site focuses more on delivering content—and less on figuring out how to load it.
Why we made these changes (hint: speed is key!)
Fast-loading pages are critical to your business’s success. A slow site can hurt you in several ways:
- Higher bounce rates: Visitors often leave before the page finishes loading.
- Poor user experience: Frustrated users are less likely to come back.
- Lower search engine rankings: Search engines prioritize fast sites in their results.
By speeding up your site, you’re not just improving performance—you’re also increasing customer satisfaction and boosting your visibility online.
TL;DR—Your site is faster. Huzzah!
Picture this: a visitor clicks your link and instantly lands on a lightning-fast page. That’s the experience we’re building for you. Our ongoing improvements to your Dirigible site let you focus on what you do best—running your business—while we handle the tech. With each update, your site stays fast, competitive, and easy to use.
