PJ Hyett reflects on a blog post he wrote a few years earlier about the benefits of maintaining a fast website, particularly to facilitate efficient crawling by Google to keep its index current. Upon reviewing the data from Google’s Webmaster Tools, he expresses satisfaction with the progress made, noting an increase in the number of pages crawled daily while significantly reducing the average page download time. Hyett takes pride in the improvements achieved in site performance, emphasizing the importance of speed and freshness.
