Abstract
A web performance index tool along with related systems and methods for calculating and charting website performance that provide a single metric snapshot indicating how an end user would perceive the performance of a website. The metric provides an objective way to evaluate website performance by using an algorithm that measures the speed, quantity, and quality of the web content.
Claims12
A computerized method of evaluating network site performance, the method comprising:
- receiving, using at least one computing device, an identification of at least one network site to be tested;
- sending, using the at least one computing device, at least one automated command to a testing server, the at least one automated command comprising the identification of the at least one network sites to be tested and whereby the testing server performs a plurality of performance tests on the at least one network sites to be tested;
- receiving performance testing data from the plurality of performance tests by the testing server for each of the at least one network sites to be tested;
- accessing the performance testing data by a web performance index engine, wherein the web performance index engine:
- calculates an index for each of the at least one network sites to be tested, the index comprising a single value that is an aggregation of a plurality of operations to be performed on the performance testing data, and
- stores the index for each of the at least one of the network sites to be tested in a user interface server for display of the index for each of the at least one of the network sites to be tested.

A system for evaluating website performance comprising:
- at least one computing device, whereby an identification of at least one network sites to be tested is received;
- a testing server, which:
- receives at least one automated command from the at least one computing device whereby the at least one automated command comprises the identification of the at least one network sites to be tested and whereby the testing server performs a plurality of performances tests on the at least one network sites to be tested,
- receives performance testing data from the plurality of performance tests for each of the at least one network sites to be tested;
- a web performance index engine, which:
- accesses the performance testing data,
- calculates an index for each of the at least one network sites to be tested, the index comprising a single value that is an aggregation of a plurality of operations to be performed on the performance testing, and
- stores the index for each of the at least one network sites to be tested in a user interface server for display of the index for each of the at least one network sites to be tested.
