How long does a phone wait for your site?
Somebody looks you up on their phone, taps, and waits. If the wait is long enough, they give up and ring the next name instead. Enter your address and we measure that wait: how fast your server answers, how heavy your home page is, and what Google’s own speed service makes of it on a phone connection.
The wait is one of six things worth checking.
The Website Health Report runs this speed check plus the rest: the padlock in the browser, whether your emails arrive or land in spam, buttons and forms that lead nowhere, and what Google is told about your business. €79, with the verdict by email within the hour.

Website speed, answered
How do I find out if my website is slow?
Enter your address above. We ask Google's own speed service (PageSpeed Insights) how your page does on a phone, and we separately measure how long your server takes to answer and how much data your home page pushes. If Google's service is busy, we fall back to our own measurement and say so on the result.
What counts as slow?
A score of ninety or above on mobile means phones barely wait. Fifty to ninety means people notice the wait. Below fifty, a real share of visitors give up before the page shows. The goal is a page that appears promptly on Irish mobile data, not a perfect number.
What actually makes a site slow?
In order of how often it is the answer: photos uploaded straight from a phone at full size; leftover code from tools nobody uses any more; a server that rebuilds every page for every visitor instead of keeping copies ready; and cheap hosting that got crowded. The first one alone usually accounts for most of it.
Is this the same check the paid report runs?
Identical. The same code. The €79 Website Health Report runs this speed check plus roughly twenty others: the padlock in the browser, whether your emails arrive, buttons and forms that lead nowhere, and what Google is told about your business.
