Speed & Performance Optimization

Faster pages on phones, where shoppers decide in seconds. Slow stores lose sales before anyone sees the product.

Every extra second costs you orders.

Most shoppers arrive on a phone, often on mobile data, and they judge your store in the first few seconds. If pages take five seconds to appear, a large share of those people leave before they ever see the product.

Shopify stores get slow for predictable reasons: oversized images, apps installed once and never removed, scripts that load before anything the shopper can actually see. We find what is slowing yours down and fix it in order of impact.

We measure with Google's own tools, so the before and after numbers are the same ones Google uses when it judges your store.

How it works

STEP 01

Measure

We record your current scores and load times on phones and desktop, and list every file and script holding the page back.

STEP 02

Fix in order

We work through the heaviest problems first: images, apps, scripts and theme code, testing as we go so nothing breaks.

STEP 03

Test again & report

We run the same tests and show you the before and after, then tell you what is left and whether it is worth doing.

What we measure

We record these before we start, then report against them.

Questions about speed and performance

It shouldn't. We test changes before they go live and keep a copy of your theme, so anything can be rolled back. Apps we remove are ones you're no longer using, and we confirm each one with you first.

Speed isn't the only thing that sells, but slowness reliably costs sales, especially on phones, and it affects how Google ranks you. The honest answer is that it removes a barrier rather than creating demand.

Usually no, and chasing a perfect score is rarely worth it. Some of what slows a Shopify store comes from apps you actually need. We aim for the biggest real world gain, not a vanity number.
