I had a couple of Chinese and European users stealing my articles without proper permission. As a result, I had asked their hosting service to shut down their website, so that they could remove any copyrighted materials.
Thank you very much for your support.

Introduction: this small article was brought up in my head when I was reading: “JavaScript Tutorial for Dummies”. But, after reading I got pretty bored and wrote this article!
This tutorial will help you to reduce your Wordpress monthly bandwidth by 35% or more.
It will also depends if you have “htaccess + rewrite” enabled and GZip module enabled.
However, this script will only compress php files and formats…
1.] Login to your Cpanel and backup your SQL database and your header.php file.
2.] Download notepad++ from the original author or from a mirror and install the software.

——————————-
3.] Open a file with Cpanel or download the file and open it with notepad.
But, don’t forget to make a backup!
4.] Copy this code and paste it into “header.php”, which is located in your theme’s directory.
Notes: this script will check whether your browser supports Gzip, if yes, then it send “ob_gzhandler” method which is similar to the other source code: “ob_start” method, which controls the output.
