How To Increase Your Website's Loading Speed

By Aurora Brown

There are some major benefits to increasing the speed of your website:

• Google recently announced that your websites response and page load times are now going to be factored into your search engine rankings with them.

• Improve your visitor's visual experience, by allowing their web browser and your server to handle and process the data in a streamlined way.

• Decreases bandwidth usage and number of simultaneous connections to the server, thus reducing your servers load,  allowing you to scale your growing business needs more efficiently

• Faster webpages are proven to lower your bounce rate. If more customers stay, more may convert!

There are several online tools and browsers I use to help assist in identifying what steps I need to take in order to increase my page speed and load times.
