15. What Does this Mean?
• TTFB is easiest to measure
• Top performers invest in infrastructure
• Data is correlative only!
– Relevancy remains king
Our Recommendation:
TTFB of 500 ms or less!
16. What About the Long Tail?
(Searches with 4 or more keywords)
17. What is Time to First Byte?
TTFB = Latency + Server Response Time
20. Server Response Time
TTFB = Latency + Server Response Time
So…
Server Response Time = TTFB - LATENCY
Tips
• Use WebPageTest for TTFB
• Use PING for Latency
21. Goal
Get Under Here!
TTFB = Latency + Server Response Time
(TTFB) 500 ms = (Ping) 100 ms + (Server Time) 400 ms
