Page speed significantly affects users' experience and SEO ranking of your website. The recommended page speed by Google should be under 0.5 second. If your page speed is higher than that, your SEO ranking and users' experience will negatively be affected. So, how do you keep your page speed at the ideal range or even faster?
We did a case study with one of our clients. Their website is on WordPress and loaded slower than they expected. Before we made some configurations in their website, we checked their page speed. Their pages loaded around 408 ms. Although this was under the ideal speed recommended by Google, our client wanted it to be faster.
So, we did our job. We first uninstalled and deleted the plugins they were not using. We then set up a caching program to ensure images, browser, HTML, and JavaScript were seamlessly minimized. We also modified the PHP package selection to enhance the speed of PHP.
After making all these configurations, we tested the page speed of our client's website, and the result was impressive! It went down to 158 ms from 408 ms! Our client was extremely happy and so were we.
What I wanted to share with you is to make sure you define how fast your website should load when you are working with a web hosting provider. A good hosting company can provide you with impressive results. If they can't, you know you need to look for another.
