How accurate is the geolocation?

Why Website Speed is Crucial
Website speed matters because it directly impacts user experience, SEO, and conversion rates. Here are a few reasons why speed optimization should be a top priority for your website:
Improved User Experience
Research shows that visitors expect websites to load in under three seconds. If your site takes longer than that, you risk losing valuable traffic. A fast website keeps users engaged and more likely to explore your content or complete a purchase.
Higher Search Engine Rankings
Google and other search engines use site speed as a ranking factor. A faster website improves your chances of ranking higher in search results, which means more visibility and organic traffic. Our tool can help you diagnose speed issues and provide solutions to fix them.
Increased Conversions and Sales
For eCommerce sites, speed is even more important. Studies show that a delay of even one second in page load time can lead to a significant drop in conversions. A fast website enhances the user experience, leading to higher engagement, more page views, and ultimately, more sales.
Lower Bounce Rates
Slow-loading pages tend to have higher bounce rates because users get frustrated and leave before the site fully loads. By improving your site’s speed, you can keep users on your site longer and reduce bounce rates.
