Proving the importance of web loading speed

Client: Google

Timespan: '18

Key Focus: Campaign

The average loading speed for a website is 12,8 seconds, which presents a make-or-break moment for many e-commerce shops. To show businesses the importance of fast loading speed, Google put shoppers' patience to the test, asking them to add items to their basket in 60 seconds. Only they didn't know that the loading time was controlled by an outside party. The experiment proved that happy shoppers could easily turn frustrated in just a few seconds and that mobile speed matters more than ever in an online world.
