Many of us use popular web fonts on our website. By localizing Google and other fonts, you will be able to improve your PageSpeed scores and speed up loading times in the process. Here are 4 WordPress plugins that let you localize fonts:
OMGF: a pretty popular plugin that uses Google Fonts API to cache the fonts in your theme and minimize DNS requests to speed up your site. You can preload fonts, unload the ones you don’t need and replace font families with system fonts to reduce loading times.
Local Google Fonts: this plugin lets you host Google fonts locally on your server. It can auto load fonts automatically if you choose the option in the backend. You can pick and choose what you want to host locally.
Harcdcore Google Fonts Localizer: another plugin that lets you host Google fonts locally. You simply have to define which font you want to use. You have the option to disable fonts in WPBakery PageBuilder and Slider Revolution plugins.
Bonus: Asset Cleanup: this plugin is developed to decrease the number of HTTP requests and increase your PageSpeed score. It can preload CSS/JS, local fonts, and Google fonts. You can also use it to minify CSS & JavaScript files.
