## Description

 1. Lighten your WordPress website by optimizing source code.

 * This plugin enables you to easily remove bunches of codes that is usually present
   on every page of your WordPress website but is rarely needed. Lighter and lean
   source code of the HTML pages generated by WordPress generally results in a faster
   load speed of the website itself.

 1. Enhance its usability by adding some analytics.

 * Secondly, this plugin enables you to easily add some analytics, namely Google
   Analytics (gtag.js), Google Tag Manager (with some possible restrictions depending
   on how up to date is your theme) and Facebook pixel (general abilities, only 
   your Pixel ID is needed. In case you need a more fine grained control, please
   use the official WordPress integration tool provided by Facebook).

 1. Add Facebook OpenGraph (OG) meta tags in the section of your website, so that when
    a page or post is shared on Facebook, it has a featured image, some text, etc.
 2.  * the tags added are:
        — og:locale — og:type — og:site_name — og:url — og:title—
       og:description (taken usually from the excerpt) — og:image — og:image:alt — 
       article:published_time — article:modified_time

### 󠀁[It’s useful](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/its-useful-11/)󠁿

 [Nedko Hristov](https://profiles.wordpress.org/climbatize/) 31. Juli 2020.

Okay, I’ve tested the plugin. It works as said on the description. This plugin is
for the tiny bits of kilobytes that was left unoptimized, cleaning the WP emojis(
who use them these days?) and removed the generator meta tag. This is enough to 
like the plugin already. Secondly – for those who’re installing heavy plugins just
to include GA/GTM/FBP I believe this is an excellent option. Once when I used plugins
for that I went trough couple and they were quite heavy for the only tasks that 
they have.
