Comments on: Web Performance of the World’s Top 50 E-Commerce Sites https://www.pingdom.com/blog/web-performance-top-50-e-commerce-sites/ Website Performance and Availability Monitoring | Pingdom Mon, 26 Sep 2016 09:18:38 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.4 By: Mike Yan https://www.pingdom.com/blog/web-performance-top-50-e-commerce-sites/#comment-6144 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 09:18:38 +0000 http://royalpingdom.wpengine.com/?p=24477#comment-6144 I think the overall article was quite useful in terms of the relationship between size, requests and performance speed. The website speed test is definitely really handy when it comes to initially testing the speed of your E-Commerce website.

First of all you cant compare sites that use full SSL/TSL over every page and the ones that dont use it. Having https adds siginificant time to load a page. Worst of all you are comparing sites which just have gateway pages as front page with logo and just links to real site and sites with full front page with lots of date. That is just like comparing apples and oranges.

It’s not so evident for me from the article.

In example, the mobile version of hm.com (http://m.hm.com/us/), is 1.4MB in size, which is rather huge for a mobile version.

Thank you

In the case of hm.com, visiting that URL without cookies will give you a market selector, i.e. just a list of links to actual storefronts (with a 1.09 MB background image). Fast load times there would not be overly impressive.

Two example store fronts would be http://www.hm.com/us/ or www2.hm.com/en_gb/, for the US and UK markets respectively.
Those two happen to have completely different technical solutions and should probably be tested as separate sites.
