    i read in SEO forums that it is one of the metric in algorithm that all search engines use to weight websites ranking so test your site if it is loading seo friendly.

    From September or October, Page Load is considered as an important factor for Google and there are lot of discussions gone on the way with that update. Important factor as well as one of the major factor in Google algorithm.

    Yes your page loading time is a factor for Google ranking, but I think its not that much important. So its its better to choose good Hosting providers at the time of your web hosting.

    It is a factor that Google considers in ranking websites. But I never heard any people who had any problem with it. Just configure your wordpress site for possible faster loading time.

    As far as i can remember Google did mention something that the speed that a site loads could be taken into account but i dont think its a major issue,i see the biggest problem coming from the actual visitors to a slow loading site i have found that when i visit a site and it loads very slowly i hit the exit button and go and find one that does load faster.

    This is just my observation though!!

    Load time is also considered as one of the important factor. If your load time is too high your site may not appear in top ranking.

    Loading time is not a metric that influence the ranks. For god sake stop creating mumble jumbo. The load time takes a toll on your ranking but not how you will rank. I'll explain. A crawler comes in, the server takes for ever to load. The crawler have a limit of XX bytes and XX seconds. Now the crawler only was able to load half of the limited bytes but reached the limit for the waiting period. Your data gets flagged for re-visit. Crawler will think there is a server issue. Since this will continue to happen it will take a long time to actually rank, since t crawler is never getting enough data to evaluate your site.
