FREE Website Speed Test for Google
Google wants your web pages to be fast loading - and uses loading speed as a ranking factor - because slow-loading pages:
- Adversely affect the user experience - everyone is in a hurry, no one wants to wait for pages to load
- Have higher bounce rates - 53% of mobile users leave a page that takes longer than 3 seconds to load
- Produce fewer conversions - faster pages engage users more, and engaged people click and buy more
- Waste Googlebot crawl budget, resulting in fewer pages being indexed and negatively affecting your website's performance in search
Your report will show you:
Your page’s overall speed score on a scale of 1 to 100:
