While Google usually claims that ‘Content is King’, but the fact is that speed has become an important factor for Google. It does not only focus on you delivering good quality content and high-quality user experience, it also wants to speed up your access to their services. The race to deliver the best content in a fraction of a second is on and therefore every millisecond counts. The faster your website visitors can complete a task, the better your site is and that means more visitors, more business and more revenue. However, it is pretty hard for regular business owners to understand the technicalities behind the website performance and therefore they have no idea how their website is performing in the real time.
To tackle this question, Google has now come up with a new tool targeted towards helping business owners know how well their website is performing on desktops and mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. The new tool is simple and offers a clear picture to the business owners about what’s good and what’s bad with their website. Users can type in the website link and they can see the ratings of their website. To get the entire report, users can type in their relevant email address and get the report that would focus on how users can enhance the performance of their website.
