Web applications and websites are crucial for conveying a business’s identity, and the speed at which these platforms function greatly influences the initial impression on customers.
The performance of a website is pivotal in determining its potential for supporting business growth.
By conducting load testing, your website can consistently deliver high performance and a positive user experience, enhancing your business’s revenue and customer satisfaction.

Stats don’t lie
A study by Akamai found that a 100-millisecond delay in website load time can result in a 7% reduction in conversions.
Google’s research has indicated that as page load time goes from one second to five seconds, the probability of bounce increases by 90%.
For e-commerce sites, studies have shown that even a two-second delay in page load times can result in abandonment rates of up to 87%.
When you might need it
At PFLB, we offer a wide range of web testing services, including:
Go-Live
Whether you’re launching a new website or updating an existing one, we provide performance testing services to ensure it can seamlessly handle the load upon its launch.
Establish a performance testing process
It’s crucial to establish a comprehensive testing process for each new website release, even if prior testing has been conducted.
This approach guarantees the early detection and resolution of performance issues to maintain a smooth user experience.

What we could offer you
Web site testing requires attention to both the back-end and front-end parts. If an app works well on one device but fails under heavy loads from multiple users, it’s necessary to investigate the back-end and conduct load testing.
Conversely, if a web application performs poorly on a particular device model, the front-end may be the issue. We offer expertise in both areas, along with other related services to ensure that your app runs smoothly.

Our web site load testing service rigorously evaluates your website’s performance under heavy user loads. We identify bottlenecks, optimize responsiveness, and offer actionable recommendations for a seamless user experience.
Curious about your system’s competitive edge? We conduct comparison tests and enhance your product’s performance.
If you’re uncertain where to begin, we investigate both the back-end and front-end for bottlenecks, efficiently resolving them.
We configure PFLB for developers, making performance testing an integral part of your CI/CD process. Our training and support assist your development teams in adopting performance testing best practices.
If you already have a team of testers and wish to conduct performance testing in-house, we provide a user-friendly and robust platform along with comprehensive training.
Enhance user experiences and ensure swift web page loading by optimizing the front-end performance of your website through techniques like code optimization, asset compression, and responsive design.
Conduct endurance testing to simulate long-term, sustained usage of your website. This ensures that your site can handle continuous loads without experiencing performance degradation. During this process, we identify and address areas for optimization, including the detection and resolution of memory leaks.

Sample report
You will receive a comprehensive report summarizing all the issues we uncover. This report includes visualized metrics and recommendations for performance optimization.
Each instance of resource overconsumption by the application is detailed, highlighting its business significance, the responsible component, and the specific section of the system involved.
This helps you identify which operation is consuming the most resources and pinpoints the component and code section responsible for the issue.

How Does Website Speed Impacts Conversion Rates?
Sep 4, 2023
A mere 3-second delay in website loading can cause 53% of visitors to leave. Slow-loading sites cost retail businesses a staggering $2.6 billion yearly. Even a tiny 100ms delay can slash revenue by 1%. But it’s not just speed—browser choice matters too, with Google Chrome outperforming Microsoft Edge. Key metrics like bounce rate and conversion rate are vital for assessment. To enhance website speed, implement strategies like caching, compression, CDNs, optimize images and assets, and reduce server response times.
