Have you checked your website speed? You may be missing out on high-quality traffic and engagement if your site is unable to load as quickly as users expect. Site speed is arguably the most crucial piece of your digital strategy.

Without a fast website, visitors tend to bounce off almost immediately, and Google is even penalizing sites that can’t load within 3 seconds.
