Speed Affects Every Click

Every extra second your site takes to load, you’re losing potential customers. It’s not just an inconvenience — it’s a conversion killer.

Google Cares About Speed

Search engines now rank based on user experience, and page speed is a huge factor. If your site’s slow, you’re losing SEO traction.

Templates Are Usually Bloated

Most templates and builders load unnecessary scripts and styles that bog down performance. Custom code avoids this entirely.

Mobile Users Bounce Fast

If your site isn’t lightning fast on mobile, users won’t wait. They'll bounce and go to a competitor.

Fix It Before It Costs You More

Custom development gives you the control you need to optimize performance and convert traffic. Don’t let speed ruin your results.
