“A 1-second delay in page load time equals 11% fewer page views, a 16% decrease in customer satisfaction, and 7% loss in conversions.” – The Aberdeen Group study.
Who loves to wait? I guess no one. Similarly, while visiting your website, if visitors have to wait for more than 2 to 3 seconds for your website page to load, they will abandon your site, getting frustrated as waiting sucks! Moreover, longer load times clog up your website besides eating up bandwidth and negatively affecting your indexation and search engine ranking and conversions.
