Google PageSpeed Insights is a useful analytics tool for website owners that allows them to quickly and easily test the speed of their website. This is a particularly crucial area of website analysis to monitor as a slow website will rank poorly in Google search results, and will detract from a visitor’s viewing experience.
Google PageSpeed Insights provides us with information on how fast the website is loading for visitors and where improvements can be made by giving an overview of the most valuable page speed metrics. Data from all of these report types can be visualized in dashboards and reports on Oviond.
