Our take

As attention spans are decreasing due to an on-demand digital world, expectations from e-commerce platforms are rising, meaning companies must do everything they can to capture a potential customer's attention. However, long loading times and unoptimized web content make this difficult, and fixing it is often not a solution due to slow servers and high traffic.

Speed Kit provides an all-in-one web page optimization platform, focused on leveraging offloaded servers to decrease the loading time of webpages. The tool operates as a platform in addition to integrating with WordPress and Plesk, providing additional benefits to webpages such as automatic browser and CDN caching, image optimization, accelerated personalization, and PWA capabilities.

Whilst many businesses will choose to streamline their server infrastructure to fix the problems that Speed Kit solves, the company has been wise to recognize that this can be complex, identifying the demand for a unified, easy-to-use, and end-to-end solution. The company claims that through its optimizations, companies will provide a better UX experience that will ultimately lead to more engagement and thus sales.
