What is Website Speed?

Website speed means how fast a website loads. In other words the time it takes to load all the contents of a specific web page. There may be number of reasons depending upon different factors that might slow down the download speed. Generally these depend upon the length of contents, the number of links (like: images, CSS, JavaScript files etc.) present in it and also their placement in the web page, the type of the hosting server (eg. shared, semi-dedicated or dedicated etc.), the bandwidth used to browse the site, the location of the users etc. to name a few. A high loading speed is recommended to give the users a better browsing experience.
