autoptimize plugin

yes it is valid teresa82; the are changing the charging mechanism to be based on CDN-traffic instead of number of optimized images.

kind regards,

Hi,
How do they charge your account?
What is a good alternate plugin for autoptimize?
Thanks,
Regards.

charge my account? not sure I understand Teresa ..

re. alternative for Autoptimize; Fast Velocity Minify is nice, Asset Cleanup is not entirely the same (and can be used with AO) but is nice as well, same for Speed Booster Pack ??

you said they are changing the charging mechanism.
what does that mean?
regards.

well
* if you are using Autoptimize
* and if in Autoptimize you have image optimization active
* and if for that purpose you have a paying account at Shortpixel (as AO uses the shortpixel image optimization CDN for the image optimization)

then instead of being billed per image optimized you will now be billed for the CDN usage instead.

hope this makes it a bit more clear? ??

thank you!
makes more sense now. So, when you see:

Optimize images – optimize images on the fly and serve them from Shortpixel’s global CDN.

if you check this box, you are paying- correct?

well, there is a free tier, but as soon as you have used that you will indeed have to register, pay and associate the domain, yes.

so it’s better to change plugins instead of unchecking the box?
thank you,

no, if you don’t want to pay to have your images optimized simply uncheck the box and you’re good to go ??

great. so in the future, there will be no charge if I uncheck the box?
thanks,
regards.

indeed, Autoptimize itself is and will remain free, no charges from me!

thank you! you’ve been a great help.
appreciate it!
regards.

you’re welcome, feel free to leave a review of the plugin and support here! ??
