Step 6. Measure this site loads a page the way a visitor's phone or desktop would, a few times, and scores it.

Step 7. Pages to measure: up to 5 pages a check. Click Deselect all to start again…

Step 8. …and tick the page you want to measure, here the home page.

Step 9. Choose the device (Phone is the test Google ranks a site by; Desktop; or Both, which takes twice as long) and what measures it: SoNET Lab (this server's own browser, steady from one run to the next), PageSpeed Insights (Google's own test, public pages only) or Both.

Step 10. Click Check now. A page takes about a minute per device; the line below the button says how many checks are left today.

Step 11. The result: a score out of 100 and the times behind it: when the first text appears, when the main picture appears (it decides the score most), how much the page moves while loading, and when it looks complete.

Step 12. What a phone sees as the page loads shows the page step by step. Below it, Your own visitors shows what real visitors measured, where Google has those figures.

Step 13. All pages measured keeps each page's latest score, for phone and desktop and for each way of measuring.
