Site Speed Will Become a Ranking Factor of Google in 2010

I can see it now. New hosting terminology. Shared severs - google optimized for xxx traffic. VPS servers - google optimized for xxx traffic. Dedicated servers - google optimized for xxx traffic.

Google will come up with something like Page Rank for sites but it will be based on site speed.

 

Bounce rate isn't and has never been a factor in SERPS. They have made that clear over the years..not sure who you get your information from. You should study up before make statements in a forum. Read this: http://searchengineland.com/live-blog-matt-cutts-smx-advanced-43906

 

This is not good...I use Ipage as my host and they are slow......

 

That's pretty interesting!

+1 on that factor for me. Definite thing a user looks for.

 

As part of my daily involvement in Google's Webmaster Help Forum, I've had an opportunity to keep track of developments during the past five months or so since the Site-Speed topic was first raised. There, a number of highly enlightening discussions with the forum's other Top Contributors and Google staff, along with the general speculations of a great many visitors, have provided quite a clear picture of Site-Speed's role in the overall scheme of things.

It is a role which, as is usually the case, focuses on a better user experience.
