Speed, Perception, Reality, and . . . Flawed Research Statistics

As often as I discuss the relationship between perception and reality, there are few issues that display the importance of paying attention to the way your customers see you and behave better than speed. Now, we have a new measurement that you can use to gauge the impact speed has on your business.

Well, sort of.

With its sensational “How One Second Could Cost Amazon $1.6 Billion in Sales” title, this article got my attention. It referenced one small part of this research, as reported at Mashable:

Lost Speed Costs Amazon $1.6 Billion

Perception: Your Site is Slow. Reality: Your Customers Leave

Speed Matters.  Google will drop your SEO Results if your web site is slow, and according to this article, whatever Google thinks and whether your Search Engine Optimization work is what drew customers and potential customers to your website or they got there by some other means, if your web site isn’t fast, people are leaving.

Once again, with gusto: Perception Is Reality.
