GOOGLE PARTNER ADVANTAGE

35% more conversions from instant-loading

World’s first use of Google AMP for advertising

Challenge

The competition to convert mobile customers online, across all industries, is growing dramatically. And landing page load speeds are a key factor in winning the battle to increase conversions. Our challenge was to develop a competitive advantage that would boost our clients’ mobile loading speeds and increase their conversions.

We found that Google’s AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) was the fastest loading platform but only used in e-publishing. We worked with Google Developer Support to pioneer the adaptation of AMP into a platform for loading advertising pages at record speeds.

53 percent of mobile website visits are abandoned if page loading takes more than 3 seconds.

Strategy

As a Google Partner, we worked with Google Developer Support to adapt a new technology developed for e-publishing called AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) into a platform for loading marketing and advertising sites at record speeds.

AMP pages preload with search results, so pages are instantly available when the user clicks.

RESULT

Instant-loading mobile pages with 5x higher conversions for our clients.
