When a website takes too long to load, people do not wait: they leave. And most of your visitors arrive on their phones, often on a mobile connection.
According to data published by Google, the probability that a visitor abandons the page increases by 32% when load time goes from 1 to 3 seconds.
Common causes of a slow website
- Heavy templates full of features you do not use.
- Too many plugins loading code on every page.
- Huge images that are not optimized.
- Old technology or slow hosting.
