What is website speed?
Website speed is how fast a browser can load and display all your webpage elements to any given user. This is a key element in terms of website performance and web optimization.
Why is a fast website important?
So let me start off by saying that we as consumers are heavily mobile focused. The same goes for browsers such as Google, they care about your websites’ optimization for mobile devices. This is why the mobile first approach is crucial. Most of the traffic on websites is from mobile phones, tablets etc.
Mobile devices have replaced computers, not everyone has a computer, but almost everyone has a smartphone from which they can enter your website. This is why you want your website to load ultra-fast on your phone. This aspect is in our opinion more significant than the desktop.
Furthermore, we are sure you have had an experience where you open up a website, and if it does not load right away, you exit out. If you are a business owner, you want to avoid this effect when it comes to your website.
Website speed & performance
So when having your own website developed, you want to put a huge focus on website speed and performance. There are many ways to achieve an ultra-fast website from the beginning stages of development. Also, you can make several changes to an existing website to achieve a speedier website.
Practices to increase website speed
Some practices that we implement to increase your website speed include:
- Preloading necessary files – loading necessary files first and other elements later
- Use only necessary styles and scripts – avoid adding styles and scripts that will not be used on your website, they will slow down your website
- Use Cumulative layout – you want to avoid a screen jumping effect, which happens when almost all elements are loaded and then suddenly the elements jump and the layout changes. This is very bad and slows down your website.
- Writing mobile-first code – Google loves websites that are optimized and created for mobile devices first and then desktop.
Our team of website developers can create for an ultra-fast website that will increase the success of your business.
How can I measure website speed?
Before changing a website, you should measure how well a website performs. It is possible to analyze page speed using several tools. Two popular solution for beginners are Pingdom Website Speedtest or GTmetrix, which is an easy-to-use solution.
We recommend utilizing Google PageSpeed Analytics. This is an efficient tool for measuring and testing speed on web pages from desktops and mobile devices. Moreover, Google’s support allows it to ensure a high search ranking on Google. We also use Google Lighthouse to monitor website performance, run audits and analyze optimization for search engines.
Mobile users
Fast mobile page speed is good for business
Developers should code websites with mobile devices in mind. Your website needs to not only be optimized for the desktop users but also for mobile users. Most individual’s do almost everything on their phones. This goes from paying the bills to shopping online and obviously just browsing various sites. Therefore, your website needs to be ultra-fast on mobile. Various studies have shown that in terms of mobile, if your site does not load in less than 3 seconds, users will leave.
What does this mean for your net income?
When users accessing your site, leave due to poor web pages, it ultimately means lower conversions. Lower conversions mean fewer customers and less money for you. This is why is it worth investing in a speedy website.
Site speed
Why evaluating page speed is important?
User experience
According to a recent study done that for each 100ms faster page loading leads to a 1% increase in sales on Amazon. You, too, can receive similar results by ensuring that you have a fast website.
Our developers can create a website that will load in less than one second and can achieve results above 90 on Page Speed Insights (mobile).
A slow loading website will cause people to exit out just as fast as they clicked the link, it’s that simple.
SEO & social media rankings
A key factor that is important in both search engine ranks and on social media platforms like Facebook, is the speed of your website. This one of the key factors that Google crawlers identify to help rank your website.
The faster your website, the higher you’re ranking in search engines. What comes after that? Higher conversion rates = more customers = higher profit!
Bounce rate
If your website loads in 3 seconds or more, chances are the user will exit after only viewing one page. In many cases they won’t even look through the entire webpage.
Website speed testing

Website speed optimization tips
Components that affect page load speed
Large number of HTTP requests
Each browser has a limit to the number of HTTP requests that you can make. An HTTP request is basically accessing a file, page or image. Typically, your browser can carry out around 10 to 12 requests before slowing down. In some cases it may stop working altogether.
There are a few ways we can fix this problem. Firstly, we can combine CSS and JS files. Another solution is enable browser caching. Lastly, we can use a method called lazy loading.
Large file sizes & page sizes
Fetching large files and large pages is time consuming. That is why it is best to compress media files whenever possible. Furthermore, compress HTML and CSS files by 50 to 70% to save time. This will help improve site speed and website performance.
Not using content delivery network cdn
So, firstly let us explain what a Content delivery network does. A content delivery network cdn allows you to distribute your website in various locations at a much faster rate than your average web server. It does this by choosing local servers to distribute your web pages. So if you are trying to make your website more accessible to people in the USA, you may choose a CDN that is located in California to speed up the process.
Acceptable page speeds
What page speed is good enough?
If you want a quick answer, anything below 2 seconds is usually good enough. It will gain you higher rankings on Google.
It is important to remember that websites do not load all at once. Websites load one component at a time. Website speed will vary between various web pages. Moreover, it will vary between users. When you access a certain website, it may load faster, than a website user who uses the exact some website using a different browser and in a different location.
What is the average page load time in the USA?
According to bluecorona.com the average page load time in the USA is about 15 seconds. This was way back in 2019, the result in 2022 is probably much lower. We want everything instantly, so modern technology has to keep up with that.
Does average page speed change based on industry?
Yes, average page speed changes based on various industries. In certain industries, websites contain more content or more complex functions that can directly impact page speed.
Some industries that may have slow websites include the automotive industry, the travel industry, and the retail industry. However, it is important to remember that it does not have to be this way. You can have a business in this industry and have an ultra-fast website.

Jamstack vs. WordPress
Which solution provides faster websites?
Jamstack hands down provides a faster website. It provides a quick page load time and overall fantastic website performance. It is important to understand the difference between Jamstack and WordPress.
The biggest difference is that Jamstack architecture allows us to build websites that are not dependent on web servers. Instead, Jamstack uses static site generators, which allow web developers to create an entire webpage as a static HTML file.
These static files are ready to go before user requests and do not have to communicate with web servers and databases. Furthermore, Jamstack can handle heavy traffic without the need for traditional caching solutions. It has many built in solutions that keep your website running smoothly.
Jamstack will run smoothly for the website user along with the editor. It is a great option for those who are looking to be in the future today!
