#JUGL meetings are held on the 3rd Tuesday of each month

NEXT MEETING:

Are you ready for the upcoming Google Speedgeddon? JSpeed is the professional solution to boost your website performance and make Google happy increasing the PageSpeed Insights rank in a snap!

Google rolled out the new "Speed" report within Google Search Console to confirm that the speed factor will be more and more important for the ranking of a website.

As if this wasn't enough, Google Chrome is going to integrate a special badge to mark slow websites, as already happened with the passage to the https protocol. This means that visitors will be scared of sites marked as slow and Google Chrome will suggest abandoning them... as a consequence having a fast website is no more an option but a 'must'!

The Google PageSpeed score assigned to your pages is now crucial, a score of 90 or above is considered fast, and 50 to 90 is considered moderate. Below 50 is considered to be slow.

*JSpeed increases performance of your website** by applying automatically several improvements as suggested by Google PageSpeed best practices. By installing the plugin you can reach up to a doubled score during the Google PageSpeed test.

•Scripts minification: Javascript can be minified to reduce the total scripts size and save bandwidth

•HTML minification: the HTML source code can be minified to reduce the total page size and save bandwidth
