      @peter

      Let’s use this thread as the single point to share FREE video tutorials on compression that we find recommendation-worthy. Please share any FREE videos that you have found useful with others in the comments. I’ll update this original post to ensure that it contains the very best of the best. My initial list is just my first try. If you see anything on my list you think could be replaced with something better, please don’t be shy! I won’t be offended. I only want us to create the most useful resource possible and plan to keep refining the list as we go. I realize that some of these are sponsored or created by plugin developers; however, they teach principles that apply to any plugin of that type. Overall, I’m trying to share high-quality, free training videos that apply to any brand of plugin.
