There’s no doubt about it: Google loves its speed. Whether it’s through Google’s obsession with having an Instant search, or its Google Chrome browser (or OS!), it’s plain to see Google’s something of a speed-freak. Sadly, Google’s love isn’t a “suit yourself if you don’t like it” situation; the company is so enthusiastic about creating a faster web that your site’s load speed will impact both your Google AdWords page quality (which in turn impacts your costs) and your actual Google SERP.

How should you resolve this? There are a great number of SEO, coding, and design tactics you can use to get your page to load more quickly. Whatever you do, however, it can be tricky to figure out how quickly the page is actually loading. After all, you only know how it responds in your specific geographic region, with your specific computer, and (unless you’re very thorough) one or two browsers. To help remedy this, Google has created a “site speed” tool in Google Analytics.
