Well, if your website is exceptionally slow because you chose a substandard way of building it, why should Google lie to users to... preserve your vanity?
It doesn't take much in the way of "resources" to make a webpage that is "fast" by Google's definition.
- dpau 7y agoIt's not just about vanity. Warning users that a site "usually loads slow" is a statement of quality. The website might be the best resource on the internet for the type of service or knowledge being provided, but getting that badge immediately sets a bad impression. The person running the site might not have the ability or resources to fix the problem. As an example, Wordpress sites running a slow theme or plugin. There are a lot of small businesses, publications, and hobby sites that simply won't be able to fix these issues.
