Why is choosing a fast Shopify theme important?
Do you like visiting slow sites? Google doesn't. It uses loading time as a ranking factor. Amazon says its shoppers don't either, with billions of lost revenue for every second delay. Thus, when starting your e-commerce entrepreneurial journey, make sure that beautiful Shopify theme you like is speedy & doesn't scare your visitors away.
Below are the core performance metrics of all published Shopify Themes for you to ponder over. Choose wisely :-)
