Thread: Google to rank sites by speed.

Started 1 month ago by sunsetmotel
It seems that Google may be looking at ranking sites by their loading speed starting next year! http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2009/11/13/googl e-page-speed-may-be-a-ranking-factor-in-2010 This seems crazy to me as when I search the net I'm looking for content not how fast a page loads unless it's really slow.

Quite sure only the really slow sites will be penalized

I can't see the new metrics having a massive effect on ranking order. I concur with antimatter, I reckon Google will just drop the really slow sites, like literally 20seconds-30-seconds things.

I assume it'l use the current ranking scheme but then rank again by speed, so 2 sites that would get 5 now for example, the slower one would get 4 and the faster one would get 5

I wonder if Google will filter image downloads into the equation too? //I can see this new metric making waves throughout the SEO industry

antimatter15 replied 1 month ago
I see this metric could be very bad as it would promote pagination but faster is generally better I get annoyed by slow sites

Wonder when they'll start OCRing images on sites and taking that into ranking account also.

Well, Google does own a OCR aid (reCaptcha) and also one of the leading OCR technologies (Tesseract)

It doesn't have to OCR anything; it just has to download all the linked documents. And oh, this means AJAX == win.

i dont think it will have a huge effect on the present rankings anyway because most high ranking sites load fast.
