Asynchronous loading
OptiMonk loads alongside your site, not in front of it, so page speed stays intact.
What it is
Asynchronous loading, in plain words.
OptiMonk's script loads asynchronously: it initializes in the background without blocking your page.
A standard script makes the browser wait before it shows your page. OptiMonk doesn't: the page renders at full speed while OptiMonk loads alongside it, then fires campaigns once it's ready.
It's the default for every installation method, with nothing to switch on.
Key benefits
Why it earns its place.
Your page never waits for OptiMonk.
Images, navigation and content render as usual.
Plays well with other scripts.
It doesn't join the queue of render-blocking scripts.
Nothing to configure.
Every installation loads it this way.
