Hi everyone,
for those of you who are doing websites, design, optimization and seo sure know Google's Pagespeed Insights Service. There you will get recommendations, what you can do for a better mobile or desktop experience of your website and for sure get a better position in search results.
This Monitoring Tool will add some value to the Pagespeed Insights Service.
1. It will scan the whole website, not only a single page.
The tool will can a whole website with just a click or driven by a timer at a time you want. You don't have to analyze all the single pages by yourself. This will get the following benefits:
a. You can get a quick overview of recommendations, which many of your pages have. This should be the first thing to optimize, because it will get the fastest effect. Concentrate on optimizing a single page later.
b. If you did an optimization at a single page, you could have broken things on other pages. But you won't test them, because you didn't expect to break anything somewhere else. But the tool will scan all other pages and then let you know, that a score is less than before. So you can be secure, that if you really broke something, you willl get to know this.
2. Automatic surveillance
You don't need to analyze a page yourself. Let the tool do it automatically for you. Once something broke, you will get to know it. Why should this happen? Consider it was not you, but perhaps a customer or colleague, which changed content or something else. Perhaps he did something wrong and a score dropped.
3. Changes are historized and well documented
For agency this can be a good tool to prove the benefit of done optimizations. You customer can get an account and can see how the score changed over the time you worked on his site.
And even for you can this be a good history. Even days in the past you can see, what effects a change had. This can be compared with changes of your position in search results (we will offer a tool for tracking this too soon).
4. Recommendations more practically
The website of the tool will show, what you can do to follow a recommendation. Google's explanation, what to do, are sometimes to vague. We will offer more practical advice, like what to do exactly with changing Apache webserver and so on.
I hope, that you understood, why this tool can get more out of Google Pagespeed Insights for you. What do you think, are those features needed, is someone willing to pay for it?
Greetings
Thorsten
