I'm currently working with some complex illustrations and wants to use them as .svg on my website. I tried using .svgz files but they are not working properly when deployed on sever. Is there anyway I can reduce the size of .svg files. My current .svg size is going upto 2.5 - 3 mb which I don't want. Any suggestions would be helpful.

If you had typed "svgz" into the search box of this site. The first result has an explanation of how to get svgz files working on your server. See: http://kaioa.com/node/45 – Paul LeBeau Mar 10 '15 at 13:29

For solve problem you need prepare you svg. I use Illustrator. Before save you need:
- Ungroup all elements
- Expand (Fill, stroke, other options) - convert to pure curves
- Don't use gradients and blur if it possible
- Use svgo compression tool
This steps allow me usual minify size on 10-50%, depends of image.
