Fast Hosting - Why is Speed Important?

"Like us, our users place a lot of value in speed - that's why we've decided to take site speed into account in our search rankings."

So Google now officially rewards fast loading sites with higher rankings, and penalises slow loading sites with low search engine rankings, poor AdWords quality scores and higher costs.

"A 0.5 second delay in page load speed reduced traffic by 20%. Speed matters. People do not like to wait. Do not make them." (Google)

It's easy to see why web users become impatient and why speed attracts visitors; and the quickest route to delivering a fast loading website is through your hosting. So it is imperative to include speedy hosting servers in your SEM strategy.
