Website Speed Optimisation

Website speed optimisation that makes your site load fast.

Slow pages lose visitors and rankings. We find what is slowing yours down and fix it: images, code, caching, hosting and Core Web Vitals.

Brisbane · Australia and New Zealand

Balar Media Group provides website speed optimisation for businesses across Australia and New Zealand. Our Brisbane developers measure your Core Web Vitals, find the causes of slow loading, then optimise images, remove unused code, configure caching and a content delivery network and tune the hosting, with before and after results.

Website Speed Optimisation

Why does website speed matter?

Because people leave. Every extra second of loading loses visitors before they have seen anything, and most of them are on a phone with an average connection. Google measures the same thing through Core Web Vitals and uses it in rankings. A fast site gets more of its visitors to the enquiry form and is easier to rank.

Core Web Vitals

Faster pages. More enquiries. Better rankings.

Core Web VitalsImage optimisationCaching & CDNHosting

Most slow sites are slow for the same few reasons: oversized images, too many plugins and scripts, no caching and cheap hosting. We measure first, then fix the biggest causes.

You get before and after measurements on real pages, on mobile, so the improvement is not a matter of opinion.

Core Web Vitals

What are Core Web Vitals?

Three measurements Google uses to judge page experience.

Largest Contentful Paint

How long the main content takes to appear. Usually an image or hosting problem.

Interaction to Next Paint

How quickly the page responds to a tap. Usually too much JavaScript.

Cumulative Layout Shift

Whether the page jumps around as it loads. Usually images and embeds without set sizes.
