Does Page speed matter for google ranking?
-
We are not sure that page does matter or not for google ranking as I am working for this keyword "flower delivery in Bangalore" from last few months and I saw some website's google first page who have low page speed but still ranking so I am really worried about my page that has also low page speed.
will my Bangalore page rank on google the first page if the speed is low and kindly suggest me more tips for the ranking best factors which really works in 2020 and one more thing that domain authority really matters in this year? as I also saw some websites with low domain authority and ranking on google's first page.

The question of whether page speed matters for Google ranking is an issue that has been debated for years. The answer, like many SEO questions, is complicated and not black or white.
There are a lot of factors that go into the rankings algorithm (and there's no guarantee this will change anytime soon) but what we do know is that page speed does affect users' experience which in turn affects their perception of your site.
People who care about SEO should make sure their pages load quickly because it can improve user experience and build trust with them - two things Google considers when determining rank position. So if you're looking to increase your search engine visibility, take heed: improving your website's performance may just be as easy as updating some plugins.
For example, one of the website https://pktdesk.com/ ranked for the first position within a week due to the faster loading speed as it's hosted on DigitialOcean.

I'm also looking for the page speed of my new dog website. Can you recommend any WordPress plugin?

Pagespeed is important and it will be more and more, but I have seen super slow and poorly optimized websites in first positions forever ...
authority and seniority matter much more.
I hope to be of help, a greeting.

The loading speed of your mobile site has a significant effect on the experience of your visitors, and you should not optimize the speed of your desktop site and forget about it. If your mobile site takes more than 3 seconds to load , you need to do something about it. Statistics show that 53% of mobile users abandon a site that takes too long to load. A delay of just one second in page load time can reduce conversions by up to 7% , according to a report by Fast Company.
The speed of your mobile site is becoming more and more important, especially after Google released the Speed Update in July 2018 which made accelerated mobile pages a direct ranking factor.
For example you can check this Page Speed Score is 97% "best dart board cabinets 2020"
Increase the speed of your site's mobile page
Most of the tricks to increase the loading speed of your site are covered in our SEO guide on Load Time and will improve the speed of your site on any device. Here are some other tricks that will be particularly effective in increasing the speed of your mobile page.
Prioritize content over fold
The content that the user of your site will see first should take precedence over the content that they will likely see later. Therefore, the content at the top of the page must load before the content at the bottom of the page. This way, users will not be bothered by loading time, even if the page has not fully loaded. They may not even realize that the bottom portion has not been loaded when they first land on that page.
Minimize server response time
Server response time is the time it takes your server to respond to a browser request. Google recommends that your server response time be no more than 200 milliseconds. You can minimize response time by improving your server software and configuration.
Minimize redirects
You should avoid redirects as much as possible, as they slow the loading of a page, especially for mobile users, as they often use less reliable internet connections than desktop users.
Consider accelerated mobile pages
An Accelerated Mobile Page (AMP) is an HTML page that is very lightweight and therefore loads faster than a typical HTML page. AMPs exclude some elements from a basic HTML page, such as forms. Only items that are suitable for mobile users are uploaded. Images and other media are not uploaded until they are in view. This is what makes AMPs much faster than normal HTML pages.
AMPs are cross-platform compatible and cross-browser compatible. Using AMP can reduce your mobile site's loading time by up to 85%. Some sites that already use AMP include The Guardian, Gizmodo, and The Washington Post.
Decrease the weight of your site
The weight of the page and the quality of the user's internet connection significantly reduce the loading time of a page. To reduce the weight of the page, try to have as little information as possible on it. However, you must be careful not to compromise the relevance and quality of the information on the page in an attempt to minimize the amount of information.
With lightweight pages, even a user with a poor internet connection will be able to use your mobile site without much trouble. Lightweight pages also make it easier for a user to scroll through them. Heavy pages can present the challenge of scrolling lag which can be very frustrating.
Your site must be able to detect the type of device that is being used to access it and tailor the experience to suit the device. It should also be able to detect a bad internet connection and only upload the information that is absolutely necessary.
Google's speed update only affected pages with very slow loading speeds. This means that webmasters have to improve their game when it comes to improving the speed of their mobile sites. A mobile site with slow loading times will be abandoned by Google.

Yes, Page speed matters for google ranking. If your page is loading late then the bounce rate will be high that will not give a positive signal to Google. That's why optimize your images and use light themes.
-
I strongly agree with you Paul I am checking https://vloggingmaster.com/best-vlogging-camera-under-100/ this article has very low speed that's why Google gave its position to vloggingguru
-
yes, google officially says it that page speed matter in google ranking. However, you need to learn
some tips to optimize your page speed. -
Of course its matter
let me show you a few samples. right now I'm searching a keyword on google "Best Vlogging Camera under 100"
Check Attachment for Live Proof of Top 3 Ranking Website. Image Name: Best Vlogging Camera under 100
Now I'm checking the first 3 website page speed.
You can check attachment file for "First Website, Second Website and 3rd Website"
the highest Page Speed Score is 93% "https://vloggingguru.com/best-vlogging-camera-under-100/" Now the question is why 2nd number ranking website has highest Page Speed score but still number second ranking. the reason is there has 200 ranking factors more that can help to rank a website. when you type on google "how many ranking factors does google have" you will get 200 ranking factors that google see in our website. Now we can say maybe the number second website misses something that number one ranking website did it for his website like Schema Markup or something others.
in the end, we can say "yes its matter" but we can never say it only page speed matter its 200 ranking factors also matter.
Thanks

SERP Ranking Page Filp Flop Confusion
Hello all, I've been having some weird stuff going on between one of my landing pages and the Homepage. What's happening is, the page showing up in the SERP keeps flip-flopping, but not only that, when it flips to the landing page it will drop 70 positions. Then when it flips back to the homepage it goes back to around position 19. So confused about what is happening. I think the two pages are fighting for the same keyword as they both have the keyword in the meta title. Homepage >( <title>PresenterMedia - PowerPoint Templates, 3D Animations, and Clipart</title> ) Landing Page >( <title>PowerPoint Templates at PresenterMedia.com</title> ) I've seen other answers about the flip-flopping thing, but not sure about dropping 70 positions thing that is going on. Does this huge drop tell me the better page to rank is the homepage instead of the landing page this targeting this keyword? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Lots of Pages Dropped Out of Google's Index?
Until yesterday, my website had about 1200 pages indexed in Google. I did lots of changes: removed low quality content, rewrote passable content to make it better, wrote high quality content, got lots of likes and shares on social networks, etc. Now this morning I see that out of 1252 pages submitted, only 691 are indexed. Is that a temporary situation related to the recent updates? Anyone seeing this? What should I interpret about this?

Event Landing Pages not ranking
Hi there I need to optimize the website of a club/concert venue. The site isn't bad and has authority, but the event pages don't seem to rank and I'm unsure about the reason. There is an overview page of the events: http://www.kaufleuten.ch/events/ What happens currently when clicking on a specific event (on "WEITER", top right of each event) is that users get redirected to a hashtag page by jQuery. The href of "WEITER" itself links to another landing page (which is IMO the one we should see ranking for the specific event). Here is a concrete example: Look at the event "Tanz & Konzert: Andreas Vollenweider, Seven & ROKPA-KIDS" on /events by clicking on "WEITER", you get directed to http://www.kaufleuten.ch/events/#2790/andreas-vollenweider the actual "WEITER" link in the source code though, points to the landing page http://www.kaufleuten.ch/event/andreas-vollenweider/ This seems to be done by an AJAX load: jQuery loads a DIV with the ID "ajax-content". Apparently, this is the code responsible for it: $(„.link“, click(function() {
Technical SEO | | zeepartner
el.find('.wrapper').load(target+' #ajax-content', function() {
});
return false;
}); I know the site has good authority and should rank well. however, the event landing pages never seem to appear, but only the page /events is ranking: SERP
(Strangely, when using the site command, the event page suddenly appears above: SERP. (But I have never seen this in a "normal search query", even though we are the organisers and should at least be among the top 5). Now my question: Does Google consider this AJAX load to be some sort of cloaking? (because the href in the code is different to you actually end up by clicking "WEITER"). Will the landing pages begin to rank if we disable this AJAX load? Or should we stick to hashtags and not even create landing pages? (but then, we will have no control over title tags of specific events, right?) Thanks for your help, I'm a bit lost here as my JS knowledge is meagre... Cheers,

Changed cms - google indexes old and new pages
Hello again, after posting below problem I have received this answer and changed sitemap name Still I receive many duplicate titles and metas as google still compares old urls to new ones and sees duplicate title and description.... we have redirectged all pages properly we have change sitemap name and new sitemap is listed in webmastertools - old sitemap includes ONLY new sitemap files.... When you deleted the old sitemap and created a new one, did you use the same sitemap xml filename? They will still try to crawl old URLs that were in your previous sitemap (even if they aren't listed in the new one) until they receive a 404 response from the original sitemap. If anone can give me an idea why after 3 month google still lists the old urls I'd be more than happy thanks a lot Hello, We have changed cms for our multiple language website and redirected all odl URl's properly to new cms which is working just fine.
Technical SEO | | Tit
Right after the first crawl almost 4 weeks ago we saw in google webmaster tool and SEO MOZ that google indexes for almost every singlepage the old URL as well and the new one and sends us for this duplicate metatags.
We deleted the old sitemap and uploaded the new and thought that google then will not index the old URL's anymore. But we still see a huge amount of duplicate metatags. Does anyone know what else we can do, so google doe snot index the old url's anymore but only the new ones? Thanks so much Michelle0 -
Why is Google only indexing 3 of 8 pages?
Hi everyone, I have a small 8 page website I launched about 6 months ago. For the life of me I can not figure out why google is only indexing 3 of the 8 pages. The pages are not duplicate content in any way. I have good internal linking structure. At this time I dont have many inbound links from others, that will come in time. Am I missing something here? Can someone give me a clue? Thanks Tim Site: www.jparizonaweddingvideos.com
