[featured]

Hello guys, today i got something new, simple but easy for you. You know, it is the aim or goal of every blogger or a website owner to make his or her site load faster. And i know you are viewing this page because you want to check whether your sites speed and fast or slow.
To start just follow the instructions below carefully and step by step the easiest way to check for your site speed using the following methods.

1. Test Using Desktop Chrome Browser


This method is for Chrome users only. To start:

1. Just log out from all accounts on your chrome browser

2. Clear Cache and Cookie

3. Then press F12 to launch Inspect Element or Right click on the page and select Inspect or just use           [CTRL + SHIFT + I]

4. After that press CTRL+F5 (or CMD+F5 with MAC) to fully reload your website without image / CSS / JavaScript or cache.

5. Now click on Inspect Elements window, choose Network tab to see the list of statistical components, access times and the total time for downloading.

6. Now, press F5 to reload website again, if you see the website loads faster and the tool showing shorter time for loading, that means your site content were optimized.



But this method is not really an accuracy and objectivity way because it's based on your internet speed, so if your visitors are not in the same country as you, the result will be different.

1.3 Using Page Speed Insights


Actually, Google PageSpeed Insights is not used to measure website speed. This tool is an advisory tool of Google which will be used to suggest some optimization tips for your website to help it loading faster. So even you got high score from this tool, you must also check all other factors to make sure your website loading time is short. And low score is not mean your site is slow in displaying content to visitors.



Usage of this tool is very simple and understandable , so just try by yourself. You can also use other tools like Pingdoom, GTMetrix, Webpagetest and Blitz (premium), but those tools are only for advance users.

Hopefully after this article, you were able to learn how to check the exact speed of the website, as well as how to be dependent on the speed test tools, avoid misunderstandings about website loading speed.
