Is your website losing you customers?

Type your address and get a quick check of what visitors notice first: the padlock, how it works on a phone, a number they can tap, Google, and text left over from a template. Then Google's own speed test on a phone, with what slows it down. Free, no sign-up.

Questions

Questions people ask

Is it really free?

Yes. No sign-up, no email needed. If you want help with what it finds, you can ask, but you don't have to.

What does it look at?

The first page of the address you type. The quick checks read it the way a browser receives it, and Google's test loads it fully on a phone. Neither logs in, fills in forms or looks at other pages.

Do you keep my website or the results?

The page isn't stored. For the speed test, the address is sent to Google's PageSpeed Insights, which loads the page the way a phone would. The address you checked and the scores are counted in my anonymous visit stats, with no cookies.

Why does it say slow when my site feels fast?

Google tests on a mid-range phone over a slow 4G connection, which is a lot slower than your computer on Wi-Fi. Your browser may also have the site saved from earlier visits. Many of your customers see the slower version.

Why are the scores a little different each time?

Google's test runs on real servers and networks, so it varies by a few points from one test to the next. Look at the big picture: what's red, and what slows the page down.

Can you check more than this?

Yes. Send me your site and I'll go through it on a phone, page by page, and send you my notes, free.
