Answer 1

There are a couple of methods to achieve this. You can configure GZip compression with IIS7 if you have access. If you don't i.e. you are using a hosting provider it is possible to activate compression from within your code.

See this SO Post for further reading.

UPDATE:

To perform this at build time rather than run time see this blog post.

Answer 2

Firstly, you should read the Yahoo best practices for speeding up webpages.

You will probably find that minifying the HTML won't have much difference (also see this question), but a lot of the other suggestions in that article will.

Answer 3

Instead of minifying your .aspx files consider dynamic compression. This will send compressed data to the browser. since you are using IIS 7.5 dynamic compression comes built-in you just have to enable it.
