Why speed up your website?
In the first place you should have your users in mind: especially in mobile surfing you may loose visitors if your pages take too long to render.
With a fast site you increase usability.
Besides that benefit, your website's speed is one of the many criteria search engines take into account for ranking. So an optimized
website may get a better position in search engine result pages (SERPs) and win more visitors this way.
Both may lead to higher conversions and increases your website's success.
