Hey everyone!

What is Store Speed?

: store speed is the time it takes the different pages of your online store to load. Depending on the layout of your Shopify store, you could have several features, such as themed code, apps, and images.

*As long as you can view products, checkout, and purchase and your speed score is over 20 I would not devote your time to making it better when you are first starting out.*

Some good tips for keeping your store at the optimal level

  1. Only have apps downloaded that you use

  2. Have high-quality images

  3. Optimize your images (smaller images also help)

  4. Make sure all links work on your store

  5. Avoid videos in the beginning if necessary
