Now that you have the main principles of high conversion in place, it’s time to populate your website with converting copy and brand imaging.

As I mentioned at the beginning of the module, you only have 0.05 seconds to make an impression, so make sure that your visitors have an opportunity to see your website by having a very fast loading speed.

Use Pagespeed Insights and Google search console
Make sure you use images that are on brand and not too big.
Keep website copy at a minimum

[MUSIC PLAYING] Make sure that your website is loading at optimal speed so that your customers are given an amazing impression. Use very little text and use imaging that is on brand and riveting. A free and easy tool to use is Google Search Console. Keep an eye on your speed tests to make sure that your website is always loading at optimal speed. [MUSIC PLAYING] In this lesson, I wanted to cover a very special tool that I think you should keep in your back pocket.
It's a way to analyze the speed of your page and to make sure that everything is running smoothly for when your visitors start landing on your page. So the tool's called PageSpeed Insights, and you can actually just go right on Google and type in PageSpeed Insights and it will pop up right away. So all I did was type in my domain here, and I hit Analyze. The first thing that you'll notice is that it's split between mobile and desktop.
So the things that are slow and the things that are running well. So I've got quite a few things that I need to work on on my website. And it gives you a really good insight for unused JavaScript, larger pictures, just things that you should really fix so that your website is in tip-top shape and that it loads super fast. I think it's a great way to make sure that your website is running smoothly and that your visitors are just landing and enjoying it right away.
