Web Load Time Affect SEO



http://angora.me

On the first (top) list of Pingdom test,
I found the load time is take more than 1s.

connect 344ms
wait 426ms
receive 345ms
TOTAL 1.11s

So, how to reduce and optimize this load part?

You should reduce your server response time under 200ms. There are dozens of potential factors which may slow down the response of your server: slow application logic, slow database queries, slow routing, frameworks, libraries, resource CPU starvation, or memory starvation.

    Some ways to increase your site's load speed:

    - optimize your images so that they're not larger than they need to be

    - utilize browser caching (this is good for return visits)

    - have a "lightweight" WordPress theme

    - make sure you're using a good host (like WP Engine)

    I found that badly optimized images or higher then needed resolution can often be the cause of a page taking longer then expected to load. You may wish to take a look at that if you have images on your page, or any thing else stored on it that may be high use.

    I think your website has many images, thats the main reason for the site load time.. If you are using wordpress install plugins like wp minify, after that check your website load time.

        Yes, loading time is definitely an important factor in an algorithm that deals with something completely unrelated.

        You need to stop huffing those fumes. The SEO elves are only inside your mind, and they just tell you lies.

    Your website load time is under 2 seconds. This is a great loading time. I suggest not wasting your time on getting it lower and focus on other aspects of your SEO.
    Loading time is affecting more the user experience than the SEO. To be sincere I don`t know how important of a ranking signal it is.
    If you don`t believe me just take a look at IGN.com. It`s a slow website but it`s still on the top of the SERPs for a ton of keywords.

    You should focus on the loading speed when it is affecting the user experience.

    On Google PageSpeed Insights,
    I got 99 and it almost perfect ->

    https://developers.google.com/speed/...2F%2Fangora.me

    I only use 12 lightweight plugin.
    And my total database is under 20mb.
    I also use Incapsula and Cloudinary for CDN.

    I also got A on GTmetrix ->
    https://gtmetrix.com/reports/angora.me/byrC463v

    If my load (according to this thread) is fast enough,
    now I can focus to another things like SEO, ads, etc.

      As you said it. The load speed is almost perfect. You don`t need to go full crazy and work even more on it.

    To increase load speed there are few things you will have to do:

    -Minimize HTTP requests and reduce scripts put them below the page
    -Reduce server response time
    -Enable compression, it reduces the bandwidth of pages.
    -Optimize images

      It's very important only if your site is horribly slow. Usually you should just focus on something else.
