Gone are the days of waiting what seems like forever for your Wix site to load and wondering what you can do to speed it up. Today, Wix launched Wix Turbo - the answer to all your website loading speed prayers.
In a world where we can get nearly anything instantly, no one wants to wait a couple of minutes for a website to load, we leave the site and look elsewhere. We all expect online data to load straight away whether we are on a desktop device, tablet or mobile phones. Website visitors expect speedy site loading times and if not they take their business else to your competitor.
But fear no longer, Wix has "implemented breakthrough technology to drastically improve the performance of all of our websites." With Wix Turbo your site will load faster than ever!
Wix says they have developed the following : "A unique set of technology for your website’s performance
Our teams have worked on developing the finest technological solutions to ensure optimal performance for every website built on Wix:
Faster interactions: With the integration of smart caching and efficient JavaScript execution, your site’s visitors will see images, videos and content appearing faster than ever on their screens. They can interact much sooner with your pages’ elements and therefore, are offered a smoother browsing experience.
Faster layouts: You have invested a lot of time and energy into the creation of your website. You deserve to have your work appear just as you intended it to be. By utilizing the latest standards in CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) functionality, your website is revealed in crisp quality and pixel-perfect definition - all while maintaining a super fast loading time. Expect this level of result regardless of the device or browser of your visitors.
Faster infrastructure: Wix now has four times as many data centers around the world. Wherever your visitors hail from (be it Cape Town, Nepal or Alaska), your website will automatically load from the closest server, for optimal performance.
A major contribution to your online success
As your website loads faster than ever before, you will be able to hook visitors from the moment they click on your link. Why? Picture this: With the data appearing faster, they will spend less time waiting in front of their screens, and more time scrolling through and enjoying your content.
The possibilities of what can happen in those gained moments are significant. A speedier loading time means that your strategic elements (such as your calls-to-action, forms, etc.) are exposed more immediately to your visitors, resulting in higher engagement. Now that your website is shifting into turbo, you can expect to receive more clicks, more orders, and more subscribers - in short: more business for you and your brand."
