Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) is a software technology developed by Google.
Google AMP is an idealistic project from Google in an effort to increase the access speed of a website.
It is specifically intended to increase the loading speed of the website, when accessed via a smartphone device . Google AMP was launched in February 2016.

AMP technically consists of 3 optimizations.

(1) AMP HTML serves to minimize the use of JavaScript tags and encourage user priority access Mobile.
HTML AMP works to reduce the size of HTML, customize images, and CSS, up to inline CSS.

(2) AMP JS serves to speed up access in the asynchronous method on smartphone devices .

(3) AMP CDN functions to store data in the form of a cache.

AMP in practice is popularly used in blogging platforms such as WordPress.
Because it tends to be easy to configure with plugins that have been developed by Google with other website developers in the AMP Project.

I tried using the AMP plugin on a WordPress website.
Based on my experience, the website speed did increase significantly.
This can be seen from the test using Google’s PageSpeed Insight page that I tried.
For AMP configuration experience I will write in the article “AMP Plugin for WordPress”.
