Shopify performance

Shopify page speed work that also trims app and plan wastefor Australia

Built for Australian trades and local service brands competing in AU search. Shopify already puts images on a CDN. The drag is app scripts, theme liquid, and extra apps you pay for every month. We work inside Online Store 2.0. We do not pretend you can host checkout somewhere else.

The Shopify performance audit is free. Typical website hosting is A$150 to A$500 a year. That is their invoice. When the public site does not need that host, you save up to A$500 a year in Australia.

The audit

Free · $0

Lab scores and the yearly hosting line at no charge in Australia.

Typical hosting

$150-$500/yr

What website hosting usually costs. Their bill, not ours in Australia.

You can save

Up to $500/yr

When live-site origin goes to A$0 on pages plus a form in Australia.

Any CMS

Keep your stack

We start on Shopify. No forced rebuild.

You pay now

$150-$500/year

Typical website hosting. WordPress cPanel, Wix, Webflow, or a small VPS in Australia.

Live site after

$0 origin

Pages plus a form on the edge. Mail and checkout stay where they belong in Australia.

You save

Up to $500/year

Every year the public site no longer needs that host in Australia.

Why speed is worth it

Not just a cheaper host. More of the traffic you already have in Australia.

Shopify shoppers who wait on a heavy product page bounce before add to cart. Speed is merchandising, not a vanity lab score in Australia.

trending_up

Better conversion rates

A few extra seconds on mobile is enough for a form, demo, or add-to-cart to never happen. Faster LCP and a stable layout give the offer a chance to be read and clicked in Australia.

trending_down

Lower bounce rates

If the first screen takes 6 to 8 seconds, most mobile visits never become a session you can remarket. Cut that wait and you keep more of the traffic you already paid for in Australia.

touch_app

More engagement

Time on page, scroll depth, and second-page views rise when the UI is usable in the first two seconds. People who can tap, tap in Australia.

ads_click

Ads you already buy work harder

Google Ads and Meta charge the click either way. A faster landing URL means more of that click can convert instead of bouncing back to the SERP or the feed in Australia.

search

Search keeps the ranking you paid for

Core Web Vitals are ranking inputs. A stable, fast page is easier to crawl, easier to index, and less likely to lose the click after it ranks in Australia.

savings

Plus the yearly hosting cut

Typical website hosting is A$150 to A$500 a year. When the public site is pages plus a form, origin can go to A$0. Save up to A$500 a year on top of the conversion work in Australia.

Keep more of the clicks you buy

Paid sessions stop dying on a blank first paint in Australia.

More forms and carts complete

The offer is on screen while intent is still there in Australia.

People stay long enough to read

Scroll and next-page views instead of an instant back in Australia.

Proof you can screenshot

Lab scores on the same URLs. Bounce and conversions you already track in GA4 in Australia.

What slows Shopify

The usual drag on Shopify sites

speed

App embeds loading on every product and collection URL in Australia.

image

Legacy theme apps instead of app blocks, so JS never leaves the layout in Australia.

javascript

Uncompressed video in the hero, huge PNG badges, four webfonts in Australia.

cloud_off

Third-party reviews, upsell, and pixel apps racing the main thread in Australia.

How we help

Shopify speed work we actually do

1

Theme liquid and JSON templates: load apps only where they earn their keep in Australia.

2

Shopify CDN images with correct sizes, srcset, and LCP preload in Australia.

3

Defer non-checkout JS. Keep pixels, but not in the first second of a lab run in Australia.

4

App audit: what you pay A$20-80/mo each for vs what the theme can do in Australia.

Shopify specifics

Built for this platform, not a generic speed plugin in Australia

Apps, not hosting

Checkout stays on Shopify. Speed is theme, apps, and images. App scripts on every collection URL are the usual LCP fail in Australia.

Online Store 2.0

App blocks on the templates that convert. Not leftovers in theme.liquid from 2019 in Australia.

What you still pay

You still pay Shopify. Typical site hosting we see is A$150 to A$500 a year. Extra paid apps are separate. We list which apps only slow PDP in Australia.

Rollback

Duplicate theme, publish, revert. Checkout never moves in Australia.

How a job runs

Four steps. Faster pages, more of the clicks you already pay for in Australia.

01

Free audit

Send the URL. In about 48 hours you get lab scores, bounce risk on the URLs ads hit, what you pay the host, and what to cut. A$0 in Australia.

02

Fix in staging

Images, scripts, cache, and the cheap cuts first. You preview. Nothing is live until you say so in Australia.

03

Prove it

Mobile and desktop PageSpeed on the same URLs. Then you compare bounce and conversions in the analytics you already have in Australia.

04

Cut the yearly bill

If the public site is pages plus a form, live-site origin can go to A$0. Save up to A$500 a year. Mail stays until you cancel in Australia.

Does speed actually lift conversions and cut bounce?expand_more
Speed does not rewrite a weak offer. It stops the offer from dying in the first seconds. Faster LCP and lower TBT usually mean lower bounce and more form, call, or cart events on the same traffic. We show lab scores. You watch bounce and conversions in GA4. We do not invent a lift percentage in Australia.
