Understanding the Numbers

  • GTmetrix Grade – A (93% Performance and 96% Structure): This high grade indicates that our website adheres to best practices, ensuring optimal loading times and a structured layout. Achieving an ‘A’ grade puts us in the top echelon of websites in terms of performance.
  • Web Vitals: Our numbers speak for themselves:
    • Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) – 878ms: LCP measures the time it takes for the main content of a page to load. Anything under 2.5 seconds is considered good. Our score of 878ms is well within this range, ensuring users see our content quickly.
    • Total Blocking Time (TBT) – 183ms: TBT quantifies the “lag” users experience when interacting with a page. A lower TBT means a more responsive site, and our score is exemplary.
    • Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) – 0: CLS gauges visual stability. A score of 0 indicates no unexpected layout shifts, ensuring a seamless experience for our users.

Addressing Top Issues

We recognise there’s always room for improvement. The report highlights some areas of focus:

  • Reduce Initial Server Response Time: While our response time is already competitive, we’re actively looking into advanced server optimisations to make it even better.
  • Serve Static Assets with an Efficient Cache Policy: We’ll be revisiting our cache settings to ensure assets are served efficiently, reducing reload times and server strain.
  • DOM Size and Main-thread Tasks: Although these are minor areas of concern, we’re committed to refining our codebase for even better performance.

What Does This Mean for You?

If you’re a business owner or individual looking to build or revamp a website, these results demonstrate our commitment to not just design, but performance. It’s proof of our capability to deliver high-end websites that aren’t just visually appealing but are technically sound.

In the competitive digital space, every millisecond counts. Speed and user experience can impact search rankings, user trust, and conversion rates. At Mediadog, we understand this and strive to provide our clients with websites that excel on all fronts.
