I think speed SHOULD be a factor. If the little guy on shared hosting would do away with 90% of his pretty graphics he’d probably be able to compete.

I don’t think speed will effect the raking. Because your site load fast then it will rank higher.

Who trusts Matt anymore anyway?
And I believe speed was always a factor in their ranking algorithm. Just as Matt explained, it makes sense to use server reliability and speed to determine how serious a webmaster is about his business/website.

I am not sure if Google will or will not consider page speed as one of their ranking factors, although I usually pay attention to what they are saying. I agree with you that if your page does not load at all then you have a problem that should be addressed not because of Google but simply for everyone, including your visitors. We’ll see in the future, page speed will probably play a role even if just a little bit.

I think both of you (John & Sire) makes some interesting points. I want the fastests web possible too, but for me, it’s more important with the quality of the content, rather than getting crap content fast

Good one Michael, you’re right Google can’t possibly think that’s a good idea!

You’re right Alan, Google Webmaster Tools does actually display the average load time of your site, “Time spent downloading a page”, but I’m not too sure they actually use it for ranking (unless your page is sooooo slow).

Tinh – you really think it has already been in place? I doubt it. Of course if your website is much slower than within the average, then it might have an influence.
