CDN for Ecommerce

Speed, the one aspect of a website that should be a high priority. It’s no surprise that loading time is an important factor in terms of user experience online, but all too often eCommerce sites forget how important it is and instead focus on creating better aesthetic design or new functionality tools – that’s good, but you have to look at examples out there on what drives users into staying and ultimately converting to customers.

I’ve highlighted some revealing facts about page load times that could be costing your e-commerce site lost conversions.

Every Second Counts, But Why?

The first thing to consider is how load time affects page abandonment. The slower your page loads, the higher percentage of page abandonments your site will receive.

Page abandonment isn’t the only problem, e-commerce businesses really need to pay attention to –

It’s clear that page speed has a major affect on consumers’ experience of an e-commerce site, but perhaps the key statistic found was that a 1 second delay in page load time can result in a 7% drop in conversions. Let’s put this into perspective: if your e-commerce site is making $100,000 a day, a 1 second page delay could potentially cost you $2.5 million a year!
