Google has recently revamped their Test My Site Tool that shows the average loading speed of your website on mobile devices along with a report on how to fix issues and make your website faster and better.

The biggest change here is that they are now using a 4G connection to test the site speed instead of a 3G connection that they used earlier. They have also added some new features which, according to Google, will help website owners boost their site’s performance.

Here are the new features that have been added to the tool:

• The speed of both their entire site and of individual pages
• Whether their site/page speed is faster or slower compared to the prior month
• Whether their site speed/page speed ranks Fast, Average or Slow
• How their site speed compares to others in the industry
• The potential impact of site speed on revenue
• A detailed list of recommended fixes to increase speed on up to 5 pages on their site
• A complete report to share with their team

Our takeaway

When it comes to the digital world, every second counts. Multiple types of research have confirmed that site speed directly affects the bottom line of your business. Hence, you want your website to load fast. Now that Google has revamped its tool and provides more meaningful insights, it’s easier than ever to understand the issue (if any) and fix it immediately.
