This article was written with the aim of helping in disputes about the green PageSpeed zone between clients and developers, which are generated at least by an incorrect interpretation of the results of the service. I tried to briefly and clearly state the essence.
To begin with, I will dispel the myth that service rating is about download speed.
No, this is not the download speed , this is the final result based on many parameters, one of which is speed.
I will demonstrate the results on the example of the analysis of the site midapro.shop.
During the checks of the site, I drew attention to a very interesting point.
The service produces different results all the time. Let's take a look at the screenshots below.
After half a minute, I ran the test again, without changing anything on the site.
According to the scale, the mobile result in the second case almost caught up with the middle zone, which cannot be said at all about the first test.
Let's run the test again.
If the computer version is roughly in place, then the results of the mobile version diverge to indecent. After such data, I personally had very big doubts about the reliability of the data.
But let's go further and check what the browser itself says about the download speed.

You can test through this service, some recommendations may be useful.
It is useless to focus on the result and even more so to chase the green zone.
The green zone is possible if you refuse to use cms (site engine / admin panel), if you refuse to use videos, especially youtube, and use many large images.
And finally, let's test the Google site.
