WORDPRESS SPEED OPTIMIZATION MATTERS MORE THAN EVER!

Google’s core web update in June 2021 started using page speed as a ranking factor.

The time that it takes your page to load has a huge impact on the user experience of your website. Page speed can make or break your site. Faster page speed makes for a better user experience, having a direct impact on the number of page views, conversions and bounce rate. The faster that your site loads, the more likely people are to interact with your website. Google knows this, and will start using page speed as a factor in search engine results page (SERP) rankings. Google announced an update to its algorithm that will include a factor called Page Experience. Page Speed, mobile-friendliness, safe-browsing, HTTPS, and popups or other content that blocks the main content of a page reached by a search result link (aka: intrusive interstitial guidelines) are all considered aspects of the user’s Page Experience.

  • If your main content loads in 4 seconds or more, it will negatively affect your visibility in search results.
  • Less than 15% of websites are within acceptable speeds .
  • Starting from $99 we can speed your website and fix your WordPress problems!

Win The Race To The Top!

Don’t lose the search engine rankings that you’ve worked so hard for because your website is slow. We know how much effort goes into search engine optimization (SEO), because we do it all day, every day. It takes a lot of time, effort and money to rank at the top of the search engine results. All of that could be lost if your website page loading time is over 4 seconds!

Gain An Edge Over Your Competition

It’s likely that your website will not meet the new Page Experience benchmark for speed. Our didn’t! We optimized, compressed, removed extra code and more to speed up our site, but still could not get our previous site to load in under 5 seconds. The main problem was our WordPress theme. So we had to redesign our site on a faster theme and ditch a few plugins that were slowing us down. We’ve been building websites since the 1990’s, and know all the tricks. Just like people, every website is different. We will review your specific reasons for loading time and give you a customized solution to win the speed game. Contact a Pro today for a free evaluation.
