Should You Trust Website Speed Test Scores or Ignore Them? (2025/621)
Website speed scores can feel like a tech report card — but do they really matter? In this episode, Charly unpacks what those numbers from Google PageSpeed, GTMetrix, and others actually mean, and why obsessing over them might not be worth your time.
📌 Here’s what you’ll learn:
✅ What speed test tools measure (and what they don’t)
✅ Why results vary wildly between tools and locations
✅ The difference between synthetic scores and real user experience
✅ How caching and CDNs skew speed results
✅ Why chasing a perfect score can be a waste of time
🛡️ Charly also shares a real client story where speed optimization delivered minimal metric gains but huge improvements in user satisfaction.
🔗 Use speed test tools for guidance, not gospel. Focus on user happiness, not just numbers.
