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

Sudden issue: no google cache for any product detail pages and offer schema missing from SERPS
Absolutely no idea what is going on. All of our category / subcategory and other support pages are indexed and cached as normal, but suddenly none of our product pages are cached, and all of the product / offer schema snippets have been dropped from the serps as well (price, review count, average rating etc). When I inspect a product detail page url in GSC, I am either getting errors or it is returned as a soft 404. There have been no recent changes to our website that are obvious culprits. When I request indexing, it works fine for non-product pages, but generates the "Something went wrong

If the issue persists, try again in a few hours" message for any product page submitted. We are not SEO novices. This is an Angular 7 site with a Universal version launched back in October (new site, same domain), and until this strange issue cropped up we'd enjoyed steady improvement of rankings and GSC technical issues. Has anyone seen anything like this? We are seeing rapid deterioration in rankings overnight for all product detail pages due to this issue. A term / page combination that ranked for over a decade in the top 10 lost 10 places overnight... There's just no obvious culprit. Using chrome dev tools to view as googlebot, everything is kosher. No weird redirects, no errors, returns 200 and page loads. Thank You0 -
I want to find all the keywords that an existing page is currently ranking for...is there a way to do that in MOZ or another tool?
I've seen this done during a software demo and saw it as the only value add for that tool but it's not worth the price of the whole tool for that one feature. The tool I saw showed you all the keywords you currently ranked for (within the top 200 positions), the position you were at, the number of users that term drove to your site and the total search volume for the keyword. SUPER useful info to have.

After I 301 redirect duplicate pages to my rel=canonical page, do I need to add any tags or code to the non canonical pages?
I have many duplicate pages. Some pages have 2-3 duplicates. Most of which have Uppercase and Lowercase paths (generated by Microsoft IIS). Does this implementation of 301 and rel=canonical suffice? Or is there more I could do to optimize the passing of duplicate page link juice to the canonical. THANK YOU!

Exclude mobile pages from non mobile Google serps
Hi Everybody I see that a lot of our pages on our mobile shop has started to turn up when i do site:domainname.com on google. As they could potentially compete with the similar non mobile version of the same page, is there some way to exlude the mobile domain in non mobile google result without blocking the mobile version altogether. We use an m.domain.com version for our mobile site.

Is there any evidence that using Google Site Search will help your ranking, speed of indexing, or traffic?
I am considering using Google Site Search on our new site. I was told... "We have also seen a bump in traffic for sites when using Google Site Search because Google indexes the site more often (they claim using the paid Google Site Search has no effect on search rankings but we have also seen bumps in rankings after using it so that may just be what they have to say legally)." Is there any evidence of this? Would you recommend using Google Site Search? Thanks David
