How to get people to care about web performance | Web design | Creative Bloq: "Etam increased conversions by 20 per cent by reducing its page load time.

To help you fight the good fight, web performance advocates Tim Kadlec and Tammy Everts have created WPO Stats (Web Performance Optimisation), a handy cache of sourced facts and figures that will enable you to build a hard case for putting performance considerations at the centre of your projects.
