For Web Developers, Speed Is the New SEO — This article is titled “For Web Developers, Speed Is the New SEO.” Well that’s a fancy title that might get clicks because it’s written in the uber-trendy “X is the new Y” format, but it’s wrong–the title itself…not the overall message of the article. Until Google fundamentally rewrites their search algorithm, SEO is here to stay…but speed is a CRITICAL component of the overall SEO package. We have been dealing with client site speed issues for a few years now and we’ve got some solid tricks up our sleeves to help boost site responsiveness. We’ve found it to be a more difficult issue than you might imagine and I firmly believe the only way to get really blazing site speeds is to code your site in HTML only with no server-side or client-side processing and then host that site with a CDN housed in the same building as one of Google’s data centers.
