Google Wants Your Site to Load in a Second or Less
Google has announced that page speed is now a key ranking factor, especially for mobile. Good! This is how you can get a competitive advantage in Google by improving your site speed. I’ll show you how to crush your competitors by getting your WordPress site to load in less than a second. Let’s get started!
Increase traffic and customers to your site
Search engine traffic is a major source of traffic to my sites. SwimUniversity.com sees 75% of visitors from mobile devices. My website must load quickly on 3G or less.
There are other ranking factors but speed is my competitive advantage. Larger sites I compete with don’t focus on speed. I’m smaller and more agile. I can conquer them and blow away my competitors.
This allows me to rank for Without building backlinks, you can accomplish things that seem impossible.
You’ll Save Money by Speeding up Your Site
I saved approximately $500 per month by speeding up my website, in addition to gaining more visitors. What?! I know.
Swim University receives between 4 and 5 million visitors annually. That’s a shitload of people hitting my servers. WPEngine charges you for this traffic. Hosting fees alone cost me $600 per month.
I was able to learn how to use Cloudflare, and other aggressive caching techniques. This sped up the site and dramatically reduced the number visitors that were visiting it. I was able reduce my monthly bill from $600 to $100.
My site is now accessible to more people on any device, and I’m not charged an extra for it. It’s so sweet.
Page Speed is Critical! Studies show page speed is very important!

“Well Worth The Money”
I am thrilled with the pagespeed course results so I thought I would share them. Recently, I bought a website that was extremely slow. It took me 5.3 seconds to load.
While I made a few minor changes (such as deleting crappy plug-ins), the main difference was switching from WP Engine to WordPress.
I continued to go through the course and it is even better. I installed WP Rocket and Imagify, set up cloudflare correctly, and so on.
I am still working my way through the course. I plan to install carbonate one day, but will have to redesign many things first. It was worth every penny!
