Speed up your website.



A one second delay in a web page load time results fewer page views, decrease in customer satisfaction and loss in conversion. So, few extra seconds in page loading creates a huge impact.

 Website speed optimization influences conversion because slow speed kills conversions. If our web site takes more than three seconds to load, you lose almost half of our visitors before they even arrive on our site which is a huge blow to our potential conversion.

Web speed also influences visibility because Google takes speed into consideration when ranking the sites. Load times can also influence how easily users can find you in the first place.

According to Google, best practice is three seconds. Of all the industries they included, non-had an average even close to their recommended best practice of three seconds.



Plus as page load time goes from one to ten seconds, the probability of a mobile user bouncing increases by 123%.
