It’s amazing what a difference a few small changes can make. Daniel from Daily Blog Tips (No, not a sister site!) has explained how when images or tables on your webpages don’t use height and width tags then browsers have to figure out the size of the image, then load the image and then load the rest of the page. All of this extra work can make your pages load slower.

By adding the height and width tags the browser will automatically know the size of the image, which will not only speedup apages but will also allow readers to start reading whilst the image is loading.
