Overview
Most modern websites and website themes use Google Fonts to make their website typeface nice to look at and read.
Some plugins even include Google Fonts to make their plugin fancy.
Unfortunately, all this adds up to a lot of different Google Fonts being requested for each webpage, making the website slower with a lower Google PageSpeed score.
Ultimately, it lowers your visitor’s experience and you could drop down in the search results.
Google already solved this problem on their servers by allowing you to ask for multiple fonts in a single request, but that doesn’t fix the problem on YOUR website.
Your website asks for all these different fonts in different requests because there hasn’t been a way to automatically find all these font requests and optimize them.
