Exit rate / loading time We see that the curve is roughly linear, so you have to make your site faster. And this thanks to two poles of optimization:
The generation time of the page. The download time of the page. The page generation time is the time it takes your server to create the page, it changes depending on your server, the quality of the code and the power of the glass cache.
The download time is quite simply variable depending on your speed.

- Code optimization
- Cache creation
- Full page cache on dedicated server
