Mizer™ is a simple to use optimization tool that removes unneeded information from your HTML and JavaScript syntax making it smaller, faster, and more easily parsable by browsers. Mizer will also perform a lossless optimization of your JPEG files, when enabled in settings, as of version 1.5.
" I just wanted to thank you again for what has to be one of the best breakthroughs in Web publishing that we have used. Mizer has taken approximately 25% off of our server, just by removing the useless space. It's fantastic!
As a content creator, anything that accelerates the loading process AND saves space is a huge plus for us. Our clients love it, we love it and, as a slight perk, it seems to help with security from having JavaScripts and content swiped. I suppose that when would be pirates look at the code, they just move on. We love it! " - Daniel M. East
