    1717*«Lazy loading is a technique that defers loading of non-critical resources at page load time. Instead, these non-critical resources are loaded at the moment of need.»*
     
    2121Lazy loading images makes them being loaded asynchronously which makes it possible to load them conditionally (e.g. when they are within the client's viewport). In doing so, you will prevent your clients from downloading images they would never see anyway.

    2929Having to initially load less resources, naturally reduces the loading duration. This will be more noticeable the more images you have on your website and may have a critical impact on your client's experience as well as your SEO ranking.

    3333It's possible that your client will not scroll down to the very bottom of the page and therefore not load all images. Having to load a few images less might not be relevant on unlimited connections. For clients browsing your website on limited plans however, you'll prevent them from wasting their data allowances. Again, this is a factor influencing your SEO ranking as well.
