I am not a permanent visitor of blogs about SEO, but time to time i do check on this and this weekend i came across a post from April that states that Google now use site speed in their search ranking algorithms. So what does this mean? Nothing if you not care about how well your site ranks in google search results and a lot if you do.
Well, it seems like it doesn't influence TOO much the results right now (if any), but they started to use it, so things will change.
While site speed is a new signal, it doesn't carry as much weight as the relevance of a page. Currently, fewer than 1% of search queries are affected by the site speed signal in our implementation and the signal for site speed only applies for visitors searching in English on Google.com at this point. We launched this change a few weeks back after rigorous testing. If you haven't seen much change to your site rankings, then this site speed change possibly did not impact your site.
We encourage you to start looking at...
