Why do you need Full Page Cache ?

Website speed and page load time is a majot factor behind your website visitors behavior that directly defines the success of your business and online store sales.

Search engines routinely fall back on page load times in their rankings, as they assume the responsibility of optimal search results. Favoring fast sites over slower ones, a search engine meets the main goal of keeping customers content with the results delivered.

This is where Magento website performance is really crucial as it is what drives conversion rates and brings revenue to online businesses.

Effects on mobile/tablets

Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, the amount of people browsing the web on mobile devices (tablets and smartphones) is increasing at an incredibly fast rate. According to an IMRG report from February 2015, visits to ecommerce sites via smartphone and tablet devices accounted for 45% of all ecommerce traffic in the UK. It becomes necessary to make site faster because almost 3 out of 4 customers exit if site is not loaded within 5 second.

These results from top research firms, ecommerce and internet giants clearly suggest that these metrics are mandatory loading speed values for a business website.

In other words it’s the bench mark which has to be put to serious consideration before getting into Magento website performance optimization.
