Speed Kit

As a result of recent studies, we know that lower page load times directly link to an increase in traffic. Not to mention lower bounce rates. And hence, higher visitor retention on your website. All these things will eventually lead to higher conversion rates.

Speed Kit promises to boost your page loading speed by 50-300%. How? By re-routing web traffic through its caching infrastructure. Even more, it takes just one click to improve your website’s performance with Speed Kit.

After you install, the extension performs an in-depth speed analysis, determining the improvements that you should implement to boost your site’s metrics. When you store a copy of your site in the accelerated framework, users can access your page in an instant from their browser. Even when they’re offline.
