I've always been a big fan of pingdom.com because I don't have to use Google How to check speed of website

I just posted not that long ago that if I don't have to use Google, I won't. I don't use them if I don't have to because I don't want to be tracked as easily since I'm a full time internet marketer How to check speed of website

Here is a scan of how quick google is: https://tools.pingdom.com/#!/bqzlX8/google.com

You can test from 5 different locations to see how quick your website is.

Locations:

Dallas, Texas, USA
Melbourne, Australia
New York City, New York, USA
San Jose, California, USA
Stockholm, Sweden

A Few Metrics:

Performance grade - The performance grade can be A, B, C, D, or F with A being the best and F being the worst. Hopefully your website is an A or B and no lower than that.
Load time - The load time is how quick the page loads from the location you've chosen. A quicker load time will help you in the serps (search engine results pages) since Google now gives a slight boost in the rankings to websites that load quicker.
Faster than - This will show you where you stand in the rankings, sort of. The closer to 100% the better because it will tell you the percentage of websites your site is quicker than.
Page size - The size of your page usually helps with your load time and in turn your "faster than" metric. A smaller page on a big server will tend to load quicker than a big page on a small, or shared, server.
Requests - The requests on a page indicate just that, how many times something on the page has to do a request. Not very complicated.
