The ideal loading time for a website should be 3 seconds. The longer it takes to load, the number of inquiries, customers in turn business we lose. The faster a web page loads the longer a customer stays on the page. The longer the user stays, more business we have rolling. In order to ensure that end users response time are acceptable at all times, it is necessary to measure the time. Monitoring website and measurement is very important to a live system as it enables us to identify problems early on and lets debug it! In order to make sure that web pages are fast, it is very important to constantly monitor and measure the web page performance throughout the development phase.
During the testing phase it is equally important to load test the page and applications with respect to the traffic. So it is equally important to monitor web page and web applications during the development and testing phase. Website performance can be monitored in a various ways: One can be technical, and the other is simply by testing with users and observing whether they are satisfied. The technical way is by observing the site load time and to see how fast a web page loads and how many bytes have been transferred. This further goes to usability testing. To go about his In a non technical way, we can just do a survey on the users with the speed of the user interface and usability.
Another fact and a positive note of website performance is that about 80% to 90% of low or poorer performance happens in the front end itself! If we just think back, once the browser gets the html, the developer has nothing more to do! So its all in the javascript optimization. To get to peak website performance, we will have to optimize java scripts , images, CSS and HTML along with the back end.
