Speed Matters More Than You Think
Google PageSpeed Insights is a tool by Google that measures how fast your website loads. It gives your site a score from 0 to 100. Here's what the scores mean:
- 90-100 (Green): Fast — great user experience
- 50-89 (Orange): Needs improvement
- 0-49 (Red): Slow — losing visitors and rankings
Why Should You Care?
1. Google Uses Speed for Rankings
Google confirmed that page speed is a ranking factor. Faster websites rank higher in search results. If your competitor's site loads in 2 seconds and yours takes 6, they'll likely appear above you.
2. Visitors Leave Slow Sites
Studies show that 53% of mobile visitors abandon sites that take over 3 seconds to load. Every second of delay costs you potential customers.
3. Conversion Rates Drop
Research shows that a 1-second delay in page load time leads to a 7% reduction in conversions. For a business getting 100 inquiries per month, that's 7 lost customers.
What Affects Your Score?
- Image sizes: Unoptimized images are the #1 speed killer
- Server quality: Cheap hosting = slow servers
- Code quality: Bloated code from page builders slows everything down
- Third-party scripts: Too many plugins and tracking scripts
