Websitepulse 2015 Mother's Day Performance & Uptime Report Summary

Mother’s Day has just ended, and we are ready to present our monitoring results of 12 of the most popular websites for gifts and flowers.

The monitoring period started on May 1st and ended with Mother’s Day – May 10th. Since the website performance is measured by the response time, or how fast/slow a web page loads, the average response time of our monitored targets varied from 2,6 seconds to 19,7.

The website with the best performance is then personalizationmall.com that was apparently well prepared to bear the heavy traffic load during the days prior to Mother’s Day.

In contrast, teleflora.com’s response time was 19,7 seconds, meaning that at some point the website had difficulties bearing the traffic.

The availability of the monitored targets, on the other hand, is measured by uptime, which varied between 100% and 99.8%. The top 2 websites with 100% availability are ftd.com and personalizationmall.com.

Unlike its performance, however, teleflora.com’s availability ranked it 6th among the other websites’ uptimes this time. Both the uptime and response time of a website are equally important for its traffic and sales. If you website is slow or down, your visitors are likely to leave it and may never come back.
