Marketing online is about speed, and the faster your internet browser is the more you can get done. I have downloaded Google’s new browser called Chrome and tested its open speed against Internet Explorer, Safari & Firefox. I will let the numbers speak for themselves, but will add one compliment to Google Chrome in that it is very user friendly, simple, and it is a browser I would recommend to my Grandma! 

Open Browser:

Chrome 1.9 seconds

Safari  1.6 seconds

IE7 2.4 seconds

Firefox 2.0.0.16 1.8 seconds

Open Webpage www.Cnn.com

Chrome 8.1 Seconds

Safari Version 3.04 7.8 Seconds

IE7.0.6 9.8 Seconds

Firefox 2.0.0.16 7.8 seconds

    You haven’t performed a browser speed test, you have performed a network speed test. Unless you were swapping peers or jumping onto different networks, I would be concerned if you -saw- a difference here across multiple browsers.

    If you want to perform a browser speed test, you should look at http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/browserSpeed.html or http://lifehacker.com/396048/speed-testing-the-latest-web-browsers for more information on how to benchmark a browser :)

    Cheers,
    Mike.
