That’s not a guess. *53% of mobile users abandon a site that takes longer than three seconds to load. And the ones who stay? The same research found a 0.1-second improvement in load time increases e-commerce conversions by 8.4%.
Your site’s speed isn’t a technical detail. It’s a revenue number.

There are many reasons a site can run slow. From something as simple as the order in which requests are made to inefficient database queries
Bloated themes, unused plugins, JavaScript frameworks loaded for the sake of it, images that were never optimised. Every unnecessary kilobyte costs time. Most slow sites aren’t slow because of the connection - they’re slow because of decisions made during the build that nobody questioned.
Requests that should be cached are being regenerated. Queries that should be indexed aren’t. Pages that could be lean are pulling in resources from six different places before they’ll render. The browser is waiting for the server, and the user is waiting for the browser
A site that loads quickly on a developer’s machine over a fast connection is not the same site a visitor sees on a mobile in moderate signal. If performance wasn’t a design requirement from the start, it usually wasn’t built in at all
A fast site isn’t something you bolt on at the end. It’s the result of decisions made at every stage of the build - what code gets written, how images are handled, what the server is asked to do and when. Fixing a slow site properly means understanding why it’s slow, not just running it through a tool and compressing a few images.
Inefficient markup, render-blocking scripts, unoptimised queries. We find what’s slowing the page down at the code level and fix it - without breaking what is working.
A site built on a bloated framework or a theme that was never designed for performance will have a ceiling. At some point the only fix is a rebuild, done properly from the ground up. We’ll tell you honestly which situation you’re in.
Legacy sites accumulate technical debt. Quick fixes layered over quick fixes, each one adding a little more weight. We untangle what’s there, fix what can be fixed, and make a clear case for anything that needs rebuilding.
A slow website is usually the result of decisions made during the build. Common causes include bloated themes, unused plugins, unoptimized images, JavaScript frameworks loaded unnecessarily, and inefficient database queries. Every unnecessary kilobyte costs time.
According to a Google-commissioned Deloitte study, 53% of mobile users abandon a site that takes longer than three seconds to load. The same research found a 0.1-second improvement in load time increases e-commerce conversions by 8.4%.
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. If the slowness is caused by inefficient code, unoptimized queries, or heavy images, we can fix those without rebuilding. If the site is built on a bloated framework or theme that was never designed for performance, a rebuild done properly from the ground up may be the only lasting fix. We’ll tell you honestly which situation you’re in.
Common causes include: bloated WordPress themes, unused plugins, unoptimized images, render-blocking JavaScript, inefficient database queries, lack of caching, slow hosting, too many HTTP requests, and third-party scripts. Most slow sites aren’t slow because of the connection - they’re slow because of how they were built.
A slow website usually needs one of three approaches - and we’ll tell you honestly which one applies to your situation.
If the underlying structure is sound but the code needs optimizing, our web development service can fix inefficient queries, render-blocking scripts, and unoptimized assets without rebuilding.
If your slow site runs on ColdFusion, our ColdFusion developers can diagnose database query issues, caching problems, and server configuration that’s killing performance.
If the site is built on a bloated framework with no performance ceiling, a clean web design and build focused on speed from day one is the only lasting fix.

Not only did Paul deliver a great site at the front end, but he can also organise the back end that provides the lead information etc. Great communication and quick work even when I kept asking for changes.
