One of the quickest wins—and one of the first things I recommend my clients do—to make websites faster can at first seem counter-intuitive: you should self-host all of your static assets, forgoing others’ CDNs/infrastructure. Users might already have the file cached. Risk: Slowdowns and Outages. You’re going to suffer, too.
