WEBSITE SPEED TESTING

Website Speed Testing | Your eyes can deceive you! Because it is hard to replicate the loading speed of your website on desktop and primarily hand-held devices. Therefore, you must take into account the following.

CHECK YOUR COMPUTER OR DEVICE

Your machine speed (your computer or device). For example, you might have a device with an older processor. At the same time, your device may not have enough RAM. To illustrate, a computer running software such as Word, Point Power, Excel, and Outlook requires adequate RAM. Most importantly, web browsers also need RAM. Therefore, you may need to close some programs to free up your RAM or system resources.

CHECK YOUR INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER

On the other hand, your Internet Service Provider or ISP connection to the Internet might be slow. For example, you might have ISP service through COX, Verizon, Comcast, etc. First, check with your service provider to see if there are any connectivity issues on their end. Consequently, you can perform internet speed tests from your home or office.

CLEAN UP YOUR WEB BROWSER

Many of us use one or more of the following browsers. Specifically, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple’s Safari, etc. Consequently, your web browser accumulates a cache of links, images, and scripts as you visit websites over time. As a result, this can cause your web browser to load slow.

Please read How to Clear Your Browser Cache.

REBOOT YOUR ROUTER

In like fashion, your Internet router accumulates cache memory as you visit websites over time. Therefore, a reboot can fix internet connectivity issues and slow connections. Moreover, this is one of the most effective troubleshooting options available at home.

OPTIMIZE YOUR WEBSITE

Website speed optimization has become a massive factor in website ranking. For example, a slow-loading website will not rank well in Google compared to a similar website that loads fast.

There are several online tools you can use to evaluate your website. For example, see our complete list of speed-testing tools below. Most importantly, do not consider a speed testing score the end-all-be-all measure of your website’s success. Speed is not the only measure of a successful website. To illustrate, please read The Website Wow Factor.

However, do not be discouraged if you have a low score. First, take a deep breath. Second, read the analysis and do the research. Finally, if you instead do not tackle this yourself, consult your webmaster or contact website professionals at VISIONEFX.
