Does Jay’s SEO Checklist support lazy loading?
Yes. Native image lazy loading is built in. Images load only when a visitor scrolls near them, which speeds up initial page load times. Smart exclusions automatically skip above-the-fold images (you can configure how many to skip), and you can exclude specific CSS classes. The feature works across post content, featured images, and optionally widget areas, and it adds the decoding="async" attribute for additional performance.
