Speed Of Website will affect Your SEO strategy

If your website is taking time to load then it will decrease the efficiency of your website, visitors will not come back to your website and ultimately your ranking will go downward as major search engines such as Google and yahoo will take notice about website load time and they give points to a site who has good load speed.

Now days many websites are on WordPress so I wan tto share a link about how you can increase the speed of your wordpress and you can find it here http://tiny.cc/30ncy

It's definitely a contributory factor in the SERPS but I'm not sure your site would lose rankings based on that alone. Thanks for the link however!

 

I cannot say how large of a factor site speed has in rankings, but I think it plays a larger role then many people think. I have seen rankings improve when pages load faster and drop when the pages slow down (sometimes only 1 or 2 spots, but that can have a big impact on traffic). Of course this is not conclusive that site speed is the direct reason for the ranking changes, but I have seen it happen quite a few times and I believe it is having some affect.

Google is passionate and almost fanatical about site speed, and if you doubt that fact, just look at the code for the Google homepage. They leave out the closing body and html tags which helps to make the pages load faster by milliseconds, and it decreases the bandwidth requirements slightly which can have an impact when you are serving billions of pages.

Omitting optional tags keeps your HTML formally valid, while decreasing your file size and making your code look much leaner. In a typical document, this can mean 5-20 % savings. Applying this and a few other techniques in our Privacy Centers, we managed to save about 20 % of the original file size.
