Page Speed
How fast your web pages load for visitors, measured by metrics like time to first byte, largest contentful paint, and overall page load time.
Why It Matters for Your Business
Speed is not optional. 53% of mobile visitors abandon a site that takes longer than 3 seconds to load. That means more than half your potential customers might never see your services, your prices, or your contact info because your site loaded too slowly.
For Space Coast businesses competing in local search, page speed is a direct competitive advantage. When someone in Palm Bay searches "emergency electrician near me," they're tapping the first result that loads, not waiting for a slow WordPress site to finish rendering its slider animations.
How It Works
Page speed is influenced by several technical factors, many of which are within your control:
A Titusville auto shop with an optimized site that loads in 1.5 seconds will capture the customer who's stuck on the roadside. Their competitor with a 6-second load time? That customer already called someone else.
