For those reasons Google also decided to make page speed part of their ranking algorithm. Back in 2010 <a href=\"https:\/\/webmasters.googleblog.com\/2010\/04\/using-site-speed-in-web-search-ranking.html\">Google officially announced<\/a> page speed as a SEO ranking factor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/www.seoreviewtools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/google-page-speed.png\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h2>What is a good Google PageSpeed score?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"info-block\">\n<p>A <strong>good<\/strong> Google PageSpeed score is considered to be a score of 90 or higher. An page speed score between 89 and 50 gets qualified as <strong>Needs work <\/strong>and a score below 49 gets the label <strong>Poor<\/strong> returned the Google pages speed insights tool and API. These scores are pretty stable because of the methodology used by Google to calculate these numbers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>How to improve your website load time?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"info-block\">\n<ul class=\"explanation\">\n<li>Eliminate render-blocking resources.<\/li>\n<li>Use browser caching.<\/li>\n<li>Improve server response time.<\/li>\n<li>Serve images in next-gen formats.<\/li>\n<li>Properly size images.<\/li>\n<li>Defer offscreen images \/&nbsp;lazy-loading offscreen images.<\/li>\n<li>Use video formats for animated content.<\/li>\n<li>Enable compression.<\/li>\n<li>Minify CSS, JavaScript and HTML.<\/li>\n<li>Remove unused JavaScript and CSS.<\/li>\n<li>Reduce JavaScript execution time.<\/li>\n<li>Minimize third-party usage.<\/li>\n<li>Keep request counts low and transfer sizes small.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid multiple page redirects.<\/li>\n<li>Minimize main-thread work.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid an excessive DOM size.<\/li>\n<li>Use caching, so you&#8217;re able to limit the number of browser requests.<\/li>\n<li>Optimize images for the web, reduce size and keep the quality.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Google PageSpeed score explained<\/h2>\n<p>The Google PageSpeed score is kind off unique because of the way Google calculates this score. Most tools look at the total load time of a webpage and because of the fluctuations and number of external factors involved this will only give you a time specific snapshot. When measuring site speed with essential tools like WebPagetest and Pingdom you&#8217;ll see a different load time almost every time you perform a test.<\/p>\n<p>On one hand this is caused by fluctuations like for example time specific traffic load and on the other hand external factors like user connection speed, browser type and physical location influence these numbers.<\/p>\n<p>The Google PageSpeed tool has removed almost all dynamic variables from the equation and instead focusses on the technical static components of your website. With <strong>Server response time<\/strong> being the exception here.<\/p>\n<p>An overview of the Google page speed rules:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"default\">\n<li>Avoid landing page redirect<\/li>\n<li>Enable compression<\/li>\n<li>Improve server response time<\/li>\n<li>Leverage browser caching<\/li>\n<li>Minify resources<\/li>\n<li>Optimize images<\/li>\n<li>Optimize CSS Delivery<\/li>\n<li>Prioritize visible content<\/li>\n<li>Remove render-blocking JavaScript<\/li>\n<li>Use asynchronous scripts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>External resources:<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"explanation\">\n<li>Google developer guide &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.google.com\/web\/fundamentals\/performance\/rail\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/developers.google.com\/web\/fundamentals\/performance\/rail<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Google announcement: page speed is a SEO ranking factor &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/webmasters.googleblog.com\/2010\/04\/using-site-speed-in-web-search-ranking.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/webmasters.googleblog.com\/2010\/04\/using-site-speed-in-web-search-ranking.html<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Google research: Mobile page speed benchmark &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/think.storage.googleapis.com\/docs\/mobile-page-speed-new-industry-benchmarks.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/think.storage.googleapis.com\/docs\/mobile-page-speed-new-industry-benchmarks.pdf<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Google PageSpeed testing tool.
