[How to] Speedup a Blogger Blog by using Lazy Load Script

Today, I will show you the way to speedup a Blogger Blog by using the Lazy Load Script.

Simply, Follow these steps:

1. Go to your Blogger account >  Template.
2. After that, Click on “Edit HTML” option.
3. Now, Press “Ctrl+F” button on your keyboard and try to find “</head>“.
4. Just Above </head> tag, Insert the below given code:

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>

<script src="http://stylifyyourblog1.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/lazyload.js"type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

$(function() {

$("img").lazyload({placeholder : "https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFdt8wzKni133IXGPZ0aRNBhse11LKHVafLIiR20bWWk2JMUhviJ75rXSdIgeR9XCuv3e-4HGtiWYoc4SKGZ3Sv35Snucx8h5cFVFLwKDVR58i3QP-YeEM4QWFKzxjqJdTqFICQ6VFEX50/s1600/greys.gif"});

});

</script>

In case you experience blank Images in your Sidebar then try out this code instead ( it limits the scope of Lazy Load to the Post Area excluding the Sidebar):

view source

print?

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>

<script src="http://stylifyyourblog1.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/lazyload.js"type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

$(function() {

$(".post-outer img").lazyload({placeholder : "https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFdt8wzKni133IXGPZ0aRNBhse11LKHVafLIiR20bWWk2JMUhviJ75rXSdIgeR9XCuv3e-4HGtiWYoc4SKGZ3Sv35Snucx8h5cFVFLwKDVR58i3QP-YeEM4QWFKzxjqJdTqFICQ6VFEX50/s1600/greys.gif"});

});

</script>

• After that, Click on “Save Template” Button and you are done.

Disadvantages:

Every coin has two faces so Lazy Load Script also has a disadvantage too. 

1. Browsers where Javascript is disabled or does not have support for javascript will show Blank Images.

 This is the only disadvantage. Many blogger has misconception that, it affects the SEO as well which is not true.
