Flyingpress failing on server connectivity, had really worst experience on SEO.
Everytime i use flyingpress am having issue with server connectivity, i have checked with my hosting server also, not even single issue. When i disable flyingpress the issue gone.

We installed FlyingPress due to it’s excellent caching features and quickly found that we were seeing better performance scores than what we could squeeze out of wp-rocket. The few little issues we did run into during setup was quickly addressed by FlyingPress support. This is what a 5 star WordPress plugin looks like 🙂

Although I can not find information why some of the “Ignore keywords” are prefilled (like .webp and the other images), I do really like the Flying Pages plugin!
Like the review titles says, Flying Pages letteraly created a smile on my face.
Thank you for sharing!
