A Good blog design with poor load time means waste of efforts and time. Not everyone uses fast internet connection or LAN or Wi-Fi. With the advent of smart phone technology, Mobile internet use is increasing every single month and leaving behind Computer internet connection in Market demand.

Disadvantages of Slow Loading Blogs
Following are some points that highlight possible pit falls linked with slow loading web pages or slow website speed that effects your blogs ranking, revenue and readership:
- Discourage visitors to stay longer thus increasing bounce rates
- Decreases PageViews. People wont navigate the blog a lot and would tend to leave it as soon as possible
- Drop in PageViews means drop in Page Impressions thus serious loss in Advertising revenue
- You wont get targeted sponsors if your page views are less than 2-3K
- Ad spots can not be sold at higher prices
- People wont share your content on social media networks
- Visitor wont turn into reader and thus no increase in the number of subscribers
- Fan following on Facebook, Twitter and Google+ would increase at a slow rate
- People would tend to read your Feeds than preferring visiting your blog. Again this effects your Blog PageViews because Feed visits do not count a lot except for Adsense
- Search robots can skip indexing a page which is too dense and filled with scripts and graphics
- Search Rankings for a page is badly damaged
- Google loves serving its users with quick loading sites and penalizes those which take longer time to load
- Traffic from Internet Explorer would suffer due to browser crashing. IE often crashes when the page takes a longer time to load
- Traffic from smart phones would decrease because mobile internet connections are not very fast. People love to visit sites that can be browsed easily and quickly using their handsets
- So on...
