Are you experiencing a sudden downfall in your website traffic?

Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) is an open-source initiative that aims to boost the performance of mobile web pages. Google and Twitter were the driving forces behind the project.

The technology underpinning AMP allows for lighter, faster-loading pages for smartphone and tablet users. As more individuals use mobile devices as their primary PC, this capability has become increasingly vital.

Optimize Website Speed with AMP 

To reduce website loading time on the PrestaShop store, consider using the best AMP Plugin, the PrestaShop Accelerated Mobile Pages module. It helps you cope up with the new Google SEO ranking and gives an exclusive shopping experience to your customers.  

Studies say, around 40% of users click away from a website in 3 seconds. Many decide to turn on an ad blocker as soon as they visit the website. Hence, it’s time high time to optimize your Prestashop store so that the visitors spend more time than average. 

If it is about shopping experience then Mobile App Builder is also an option but with AMP you do not just make your website gadget-friendly but optimize it for Google SEO ranking too.
