Why Your Slow Website Is Killing Your Puerto Morelos Business

Real scenario: A tourist on the Cozumel ferry searches "where to eat in Puerto Morelos". Opens 3 websites. Yours takes 8 seconds to load. The other two load in 2 seconds.

Guess which one they close immediately?

The brutal data:

• 53% of mobile users abandon sites that take >3 seconds
• Each extra second = 7% fewer conversions
• 79% of customers unsatisfied with speed DON'T return

In Puerto Morelos, where 89% of tourist searches are from mobile (often with irregular 4G), having a slow site means gifting customers to competition.

The Real Cost of a Slow Site

Let's get specific. Imagine you have a restaurant in Puerto Morelos:

Monthly web traffic: 2,000 visits Current conversion rate (slow site at 7sec): 1.5% Website customers: 30/month Average ticket: $40 USD

Monthly revenue from website: $1,200 USD

Now, with fast site (<2 seconds):

Optimized conversion rate: 4.5% (3x more, conservative) Website customers: 90/month Monthly revenue: $3,600 USD

Difference: $2,400/month = $28,800/year

Just from making your site load fast. No more traffic. No more ads. Just speed.

Google Penalizes You For Being Slow (And Rewards You For Being Fast)

Since 2021, Google uses Core Web Vitals as a ranking factor. Translation: slow sites drop in search positions.

The 3 Core Web Vitals:

1. LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) - Time until main content appears

   • ✅ Good: <2.5 seconds
   • ⚠️ Needs improvement: 2.5-4 seconds
   • ❌ Poor: >4 seconds

2. FID (First Input Delay) - Time until site responds to clicks

   • ✅ Good: <100ms
   • ⚠️ Needs improvement: 100-300ms
   • ❌ Poor: >300ms

3. CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift) - Elements that move while loading

   • ✅ Good: <0.1
   • ⚠️ Needs improvement: 0.1-0.25
   • ❌ Poor: >0.25

The 7 Optimizations With Most Impact

1. Aggressive Image Optimization

Problem: You upload 4MB photo directly from your iPhone. Solution: Compression + modern format (WebP/AVIF).

Impact: From 4MB to 80KB = 50x faster.

2. CDN (Content Delivery Network)

What it is: Your files copied to servers worldwide. User in Mexico loads from Mexico server, not USA.

Impact: -40% to -60% load time.

Cost: From $5 USD/month (Cloudflare free tier available).

3. Quality Hosting

Cheap hosting ($3/month):

• Shared server with 2000+ sites
• Limited CPU
• Response time: 800ms-2000ms

Optimized hosting ($15-30/month):

• Dedicated resources
• Fast SSDs
• Response time: 50ms-150ms

The difference in experience is brutal.

4. Intelligent Caching

Browser saves copy of your site. Next visit loads instantly.

Impact: Returning visitors load 10x faster.

5. Eliminate Unnecessary JavaScript

Many sites load 15 scripts they don't use. Each adds weight and time.

6. Optimized Web Fonts

Using 6 variants of Montserrat adds 400KB.

Better: Use only 2 weights, preload, or use system fonts.

7. Lazy Loading

Images load as you scroll, not all at once.
