Starting 2010 google changed terms on their seo for site ranking. Since then all sites are required to load javascript at the bottom of the body, failure to do so results in negative seo scores and if your site takes to long to load you can be completely removed from google search results.

Unminified css and js results in longer page loading times and again hurts your seo.

belldandu commented 7 years ago

On pages that have more than one image or on a page with a huge image if you don't preload. It can increase page loading time which negatively affects your seo rank.

See: http://htmlgoodies.com/tutorials/web_graphics/article.php/3480001/So-You-Want-To-Pre-Load-Huh.htm for pro's and con's and for those the dont know about preloading.

I'm interested in reading about how page load time with images (assuming you mean fully rendered time) affects SEO ranking. Do you have any reputable sources?

The real issue here is how fast a pages contents can load initially. Large or many images on a page can make initial rendering become bogged down if they aren't preloaded.

belldandu commented 7 years ago

This is especially true with brad's in development anime list. Which will be using preloading and another tactic to improve page rendering speeds.

This isn't done yet. Just one of probably many possible cleanup changes to complete this.
