Why Speed Matters for Canadian Websites
Page speed directly impacts user experience, conversion rates, and search engine rankings. Studies show that 53% of mobile visitors leave a page that takes longer than 3 seconds to load. For Canadian e-commerce sites, every second of delay can mean lost revenue.
Speed Optimization Checklist
- Optimize and compress images (WebP format)
- Enable browser caching and GZIP compression
- Minimize CSS and JavaScript files
- Use a CDN with Canadian edge locations
- Choose a hosting provider with Canadian servers
- Implement lazy loading for below-the-fold content
