+* HTML page caching
+* CSS minification
+* JavaScript minification

+* Image lazy loading

+
+= Why Premium Features Require a License =
+
+Some advanced optimizations rely on BlinkSpeed cloud services to process CSS, images, and performance data. These services require additional server resources, so a license key is required to enable them for the entire website.
+
+You can activate your license key from:
+
+BlinkSpeed → General Settings → License Key
