Priority: Low

Impact: Negative

What issues it may cause​

Pages with a high fetch time may cause a poor user-experience and could negatively affect the rankings in search engine results resulting in less traffic and conversions.

A very high fetch time may cause search engines to stop crawling and indexing your pages.

How do you fix it​

The pages should be investigated using tools like PageSpeed Insights to identify the issues that may be causing them to have a high fetch time.

What is the positive impact​

Lowering the fetch time may;

  • provide a better user-experience that could positively affect conversion rates.
  • result in higher rankings in search results leading to an increase in traffic and conversions.

  • increase crawl rate of search engines which could result in your pages being discovered faster and updated more frequently.

How to fetch the data for this report template​

Operation: query GetReportStatForCrawl( $crawlId: ObjectID! $reportTemplateCode: String! $after: String ) { getReportStat( input: {crawlId: $crawlId, reportTemplateCode: $reportTemplateCode} ) { crawlUrls(after: $after, reportType: Basic) { nodes { pageTitle url description foundAtUrl fetchTime deeprank level contentSize foundInGoogleAnalytics foundInGoogleSearchConsole foundInBacklinks foundInList foundInLogSummary foundInWebCrawl foundInSitemap } totalCount pageInfo { endCursor hasNextPage } } } }Variables: {"crawlId":"TjAwNUNyYXdsNDAwMA","reportTemplateCode":"max_load_time"}
