Another possible cause of dropping PageRank – and even worse – potential loss of organic search traffic – is slow load time.
Most WordPress blogs are not loading nearly as quickly as they can and there ARE some great tools out there to assist us in speeding them up.
GTmetrix offers a free WordPress Optimization Guide and free online Page Load speed test that provides comprehensive results.
- NOTE: a page load time of 5.29s still garners an F grade so don’t panic when you run your site!
- Test your home page and some of your posts to identify issues that affect one and not the other.
This screen capture shows most of the first page of results. There are multiple tabs and much more to see so do run your own URLs. It doesn’t cost you anything but your time.
They recommend two very popular WordPress plugins: W3 Total Cache to set an expiration time and speed up browser caching and SmushIt to optimize images. (Many blogs are using images that are way too large and even I should optimize all the images here.)
WARNING: Be aware that caching plugins
are highly likely to conflict with other plugins
and WordPress or Theme upgrades or changes.
We need to identify bloggers who are particularly adept at optimizing caching plugins and make a list of those willing to assist and what they charge to help other bloggers. Any volunteers?

PAGE SPEED TIPS:
- Reduce the Number of Posts you display on your main page to speed up your blog! Go to WP admin under Settings and set how many posts will be displayed on the front page and going to 5 seems to be the best option, but this can vary from theme to theme as well, as some themes are much heavier than others causing slow speeds. Tip from JR whose Internet Marketing Blog is one to definitely be reading.
- JR also tells us that another issue with page speed is plugins like Similar Posts that drag down speed by calling the related posts for each page on the blog and can really affect page load times.
- Make sure your sharing buttons are ONLY on the post and NOT on your main page. They can really slow your blog down. Tip from Kristi Hines of the exceptional Social Media for Businesses Advice blog Kikolani.com. I make it a point to read what Kristi writes everywhere. Bloggers should seriously consider buying her inexpensive Blog Post Promotion Guide.
- I use WP-Optimize to delete post revisions and optimize databases. It is easy to run and hasn’t caused any problems. When I had the caching issue each time I published a new post I found that optimizing just before publishing DID make a difference.
- Ray from Dolphin Hosting recommends we keep an eye on is Google’s new page speed service and says another fairly decent test site that Google recommends is WebPageTest.org.

Thanks to provide a page rank checker tools and also improve site load speed cache plugin information its really helpfull for my blog
Thanks for Page Load Tips, I really liked them. and especially about optimizing images before uploading to blog posts.
Hello, I have recently seen on a blog of mine a PR decrease by 1 point, and I think its because I restricted the internal links pointing out to the home page.
Does it sound it makes sense?
Page Load times over 5 secs can cause trouble for sure.
Thanks!
I am a victim of slow website loading and after a lot of research I have come to the conclusion that please for god sake do not use any cache plugins otherwise you will definitely ruin your site and rankings in search engines.
Dolly would love you to read ..Innovative Ideas of Marriage Proposals can be Interesting and Memorable Events
Hi Dolly,
I’ve run into exactly the same issues and am not currently using any caching plugin. I need to research to find out IF we really do need one then we must know how to optimize the configuration.
Caching plugins were causing my blog to not load when I publish a new post – possibly because so many bloggers tweet my new content right away.
If anyone has insights into Caching best practices please do share. As always here, relevant links are encouraged. Comments with links are likely to go into moderation and I will find and approve them.

I never thought of this before. Maybe this is the reason why my traffic reduced when my site loading speed decreased due to few internal errors.
Site load speed has a lot of affect on the traffic. I would surely not want to visit a site that takes time to load the pages. If I visit then I would cancel it and view another similar site that is faster and recommend the same to my friends.
Whoa! Seems a great list. This will take me some time to try them then -,-
Since my site is still new, my page loading time is still fine but I’m really worrying when it gets bigger. I do posts images on my site and loads 8 posts per page so I guess that will really cause my site to load slow.

Well, for ranking of site two most important things are considered. First, is the number of natural links and second is the load time of a site. I think to reduce load time we should also adopt any available resource.
Really great post, best sharing, got lot many new ideas, thanks for the info….
Thanks for this great post. It really helped me a lot and I use a lot of those tools now. In addition, the guides were great I read them all especially How to Reduce Page Load Time by 75% was great. Because it helped me reduce 40% page load time so I’d recommend it to everyone.
I agree with the author and want to tell that this is one area I need to improve on my blogs. I think having to many plugins will cause slower speeds so I try to keep them to a minimal. Nice to learn something new and important here.
Got a B, so i guess it’s not that bad? I’ve never put too much thought on speed, since i believe a well made website already gives high performance without thinking too much about it. But i guess i could work on a it a little, even if just to test the results.

I am not sure that I can agree with you that a possible cause of dropping PageRank is slow load time.
PageRank (PR) of a webpage is determined by calculating the total value of all the incoming links. The value of each link is calculated by dividing the PR of the linking page by the number of links on the page. We only see integer values but Google has all the decimal points. Every page is then ranked according to incoming link value. PR is allocated in a logarithmic fashion with a base probably in the region of 8-9.
Slow load time will be picked up by search engines as an adverse factor that can reduce positioning on the SERPS, but the PageRank is not directly affected.
Apologies for being pedantic, but PageRank and more importantly HomePage PageRank are too frequently misuderstood.
Hope this helps
Kind regards
David
Hi David,
You could be correct, but since Google has indicated that they are using page load times they may or may not affect PageRank. It is wise to always verify what they say they are doing and I have not seen any research published on that specifically.
I tied this post into the recent update because I was getting a lot of questions about why it goes down from bloggers. As we both know, search engine position is more important than PageRank (except when the advertiser considering you is looking at it) and page load time IS supposed to be a factor in search engine position – either now or eventually – it doesn’t hurt to have bloggers improving their load times.
PageRank will go down if your blog receives a lot of comments and chooses to be dofollow and most likely also for duplicate content issues – some of them out of your control and for broken links or links to bad neighborhoods.

I think this helps more than the tool I was using, the little bug tool. Because it would tell me why my website was slow but it was terrible at helping me fix the issues or even understand the issues. I hope this will make the process easier for me!!! I love all of the website help you have posted lately!
Have you used WebPageTest.org and looked at the reports it generates. It gives a lot of detail and it is free.
I have worked on my main website speed before and never noticed much of a jump in the rankings. Has anyone noticed the difference? I will continue to work on it since I feel all of the small pieces must add up! But just wondering if anyone has had any improvements in rankings with working on your site speed?
Interesting question and I’m not sure anyone can give you definitive answer on this, but…
Google is very clear that speed is one of the “signals” they monitor. They even approached me about participating in their new site acceleration hardware solution, also called PageSpeed. They are getting into speed in a big way. And for me that’s the best clue that speed is important.
I don’t think you need to worry about speed, you’re on a blogspot.com site and you only have two posts.

Loading speed of a website is very important factor on the web. It is the important criteria from Google to provide search result.
I never thought of this before! Thanks for telling it here. My web page takes little longer to load, and I must do something about it after getting aware it could be a possible cause to lower my page rank. I would try reducing the number of posts on my main page.
Nice tips. With Google saying that it factors page load time into how it ranks pages, we all should take it seriously. Google even makes a tool for you to use in their Webmaster Tools, so there really is no excuse. Page loading has become part of SEO.
These tips are extremely beneficial. These are things that anyone can easily do to improve page rank. Thanks for the sharing.

Hi Danny,
Agreed – there is a definite trade-off and constant re-evaluation of which plugins speed your blog up and which cause problems. Caching plugins are particularly problematic and require caution when making changes or ungrading WordPress or any other plugin.
The most common plugin conflicts are between caching plugins and other plugins we commonly use. I disabled Ajax edit comments here a long time ago because of that issue.

I am trying out a service called CloudFlare with the W3 Total Cache plugin on one of my less important sites to see how well it works and so far have been very impressed. Loads a bit faster and the first byte time was cut in half. Just don’t like that I have to use their nameservers.

I keep checking my site for its own pageload time. I suggest checking page load time at least twice a week for those who regularly update their blogs. Page loading are sometimes overlooked by many not minding its significance and impact to the page ranks and traffic generation.

Not exactly.
From a Cloudflare blog post.
“Will CloudFlare conflict with any of my WordPress caching plugins?
CloudFlare is a complementary offering to popular WordPress caching plugins. Where as most WordPress caching plugins focus on optimizing your database and server, CloudFlare optimizes at the network level. CloudFlare has partnered with the popular W3 Total Cache plugin and is included as an option in W3 Total Cache (W3TC).
On the topic of WordPress, CloudFlare has a WordPress plugin as well. This ensures that WordPress users get the most out of the service. Note: If you activate CloudFlare through W3TC, then you do not need to use the CloudFlare WordPress plugin as well.”

One of the resources I find really helpful is webpagetest.org for measing component load time. Smushit is a great service and their is a WP plugin for it as well.
W3 Cache is an exceptional plugin but it takes some tuning to get everything running well. But I also added Cloudflare as well and the combination of everything managed to reduce my time to first byte from about 2 seconds to 167ms and page load time from 9 seconds to 2 seconds.
Speed is the one thing we can control, well at least it’s less mysterious than search engine algorithms.

The name servers work great and I’ve never had a problem with them. In fact I set all my entires to TTL 5 minutes. This way, whenever I make a change it propagates through fast.
A Sunday evening is the best time to make the change since it will take about 12 hours to flow through most of the external name servers from your old entries.

Great post as always Gail, I want to suggest the plugin WP Minify as well to compress scripts and HTML loads.
Smush It is great!
And, actually WP Super Cache is a better and easier plugin to use and configure than W3 Total Cache, imho. I have a variety of different plugins and WP Super Cache has never conflicted with any of them.
Another issue with page speed is plugins like Similar Posts, they drag down speed by calling the related posts for each page on the blog and can really affect page speed.
Another issue with page speed is the amount of post excerpts you have on the home page. There is a huge difference in load time, and especially First Byte Time, which is the time it takes to load the first page of the site, between say 5 posts versus 7 or 8 or more. In WP admin under Settings – Reading you can set how many posts will be displayed on the front page and going to 5 seems to be the best option, but this can vary from theme to theme as well, as some themes are much heavier than others causing slow speeds.
As far as optimizing images, it’s basically a matter of resizing them in an image editor, there’s a free one called GIMP that is great, but Smush It does a great job without being a heavy server load on the blog.

Hi JR,
I am so happy to see you active again. Maybe our circles don’t overlap enough as I haven’t seen you in quite a while. Thank you for the additional tips. I’ll find a way to make them more visible in this post.
Every blogger I know uses one of those two caching plugins, but which they prefer is different. I suspect it depends on how well you’ve learned to configure them. I need to find an expert to guest post about that.
Your tip about how many posts on the home page I should have thought of but hadn’t. That would definitely be a simple fix that could make a big difference for many blogs.
Something related is sharing buttons. Kristi Hines made sure I knew to put them on the posts NOT on the main page because calling that many in multiple times on your main page would really slow things to a crawl!
I use GIMP to do screen captures and reduce images, but when I put an image in a post I don’t know exactly what size I’m going to want it to end up. I reduce it to make the caption fit and display well and to have the text wrap so my images are different sizes.
Since you say SmushIt is a low overhead I should probably get it installed and find a good write-up on how to reduce images without breaking the links. Most of my links do NOT go to a larger image on this blog – they go to the source I credit that has related content to read.

I was always wonder if the page loading time is really that important. It is obvious that if the site is loading like 5 min than nobody will going to visit it even the googlebot 😛 but is there a big difference between the site that load the 5 sec and the one that loads 8 sec? Beside on site optimization sometimes the load time depends on type of hosting that we use. Is it wise to change our hosting provider if our site loading time is few sec longer then the site of our competition?
I feel my site is slow too but I don’t use much images and use only small sized images. So I have to find out what actually making my site slow.

I get 85% pg speed (B) and 77% yslow grade (C) on my wordpress blog. On my main page I get 83% pg speed (B) and 83% yslow grade (B). I did use cloudflare for a while which does a little cdn, but not a full cdn like amazon and my percentages were 2-5% better.
I have also done some optimizing images, css, js, gzip, and that kind of thing. I could do a little more, but I don’t know that going through much more work will gain me but a few percentage points now, unless I try something like amazon cdn.
My wordpress blog does use the super cache plugin. I find the w3 total cache plugin a little complicated to configure. Some of it you need to really know if your host has different caching abilities or not. Otherwise setting them will not help.
Another thing that can help speed up a web site is depending on whether your host runs apache dso module, cgi/suphp, or fast-cgi. Fast cgi is much faster at rendering a page when compared to cgi/suphp. Of course if your host likes to overload a server with too many other accounts it can slow things down considerably too.
Keep an eye on is Google’s new page speed service:

Well I got two C’s. I thought I built a pretty efficient template but it would seem the JS is pulling it down a bit. Something I noticed with joomla is that you have to have certain JS libraries load in the template even if you don’t use them on the frontend of the site, if not the backend won’t work. Searching for a work around now!
My home page tested at 78% (C), which is bad news since I haven’t added everything to it yet and there are very few graphic. I don’t even have my header/logo yet and no banners. The results show images as 100% though.
I have W3 Total Cache installed but haven’t activated it yet. I’ll check the others to and do like you said and test individual pages. I appreciate the tip and resources.

Hi Brian,
Be careful installing caching plugins as they have the highest probability of conflicting with other plugins. I encourage bloggers to assist each other technically when they run into conflicts and other issues.
They grading scale of that tool is very strong and I haven’t seen any blogs that tested above a B for any part of it yet. I suspect most are going to see an F at least when they first start testing and will have to work from there.
In a way that is good news because you’ll be able to tell clearly that you’re making improvements and how much further you have to go. I suspect almost every blogger I know is up against this challenge. If any have optimized completely I hope they’ll drop in and share their tips and any posts they may have used or written.

I sure do appreciate you Gail. I activated W3 Total Cache, after backing everything up. I didn’t go with the CloudFlare option but still might. My new score:
Page Speed Grade 87% (B)
YSlow Grade 80% (B)
I also installed SmushIt and crunched a few images but there was not difference in file site. I optimize images pretty good before I use them.
That’s great news, Brian. I had one caching plugin that Sammy preferred and then another blogger I worked with switched to a different one that started causing issues whenever I published a new post. Now I need to figure out which one is which and get the original one reinstalled.
I’d love to hear more about how you optimize images. I make sure mine are pretty small but then I often end up reducing their physical size (although not sure about the actual size).
I need to find some good posts about SmushIt and/or optimizing existing images without breaking links or get someone to write a guest post for me to publish here. How to optimize images is one of the skills every blogger needs.
