I'm not sure how much it's going to affect your blog but Google has announced they will now be including the load time of a website when it comes to ranking for specific keywords.

I'm guessing anyone with a clean sidebar and a shared server will be fine. I don't however know how bloggers or free hosting blogs will be affected.

If you have a free hosting solution it might be time to consider a new hosting provider that can offer you a fast loading time.

What's your thoughts?

    My thoughts are that Google can't do that, since in most cases Google's scripts add to the website loading speed.

    Simple as that.

    YES! It Does.

    Main objective of Google is to make user experience a happy one. And whatever makes user happy Google abides with it. Fast page load time is one such factor which Google has started considering and it has published this new in its official blog as well.
