If your website hasn’t had a proper update in a few years, chances are it’s quietly sabotaging your growth. Today’s customers are ruthless with slow, clunky, outdated sites. In just 3 seconds, you’ve either earned their trust — or lost them for good.
Here’s the harsh truth
- Google found that 53% of mobile users leave if a site takes more than 3 seconds to load
- A 2023 Portent study showed that 80% expect it in 2 seconds or less
- In 2024, Contentsquare reported that bounce rates increase by up to 30% per extra second
- A Clutch survey ranked slow loading as a top trust-breaker
- Google’s Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) are ranking factors — because speed = trust
- AI-driven competitors are pulling ahead with smarter, faster websites
Sound familiar? It’s time for a rethink.
At Codeguys, we don’t just build beautiful websites — we build conversion machines. Every click, scroll, and tap is designed to guide your customer towards action. Don't let a slow website drive away potential clients. Modern users expect lightning-fast experiences; even a second's delay can drastically increase bounce rates and plummet conversions.
5 Signs Your Website Needs Help
- It’s not mobile-first (but 70%+ of traffic is)
