How MiaDonna Achieved 10x Faster Global Loading Speeds with SpeedSize
100% Quality, 5x Faster, 85.2% Smaller Media Files
At MiaDonna, every piece of jewelry tells a story of love, commitment, and sustainability. Known for its stunning, conflict-free engagement rings, MiaDonna is dedicated to providing customers with an exceptional shopping experience.
However, as their business grew and their customer base expanded globally, their visually rich website (designed to highlight the details of their jewelry) struggled to keep up.
Pages were slow, especially for customers in regions like Europe and Asia-Pacific. Potential buyers, excited to explore MiaDonna’s unique collections, were left frustrated by delays, with some abandoning the site before making a purchase.
MiaDonna knew something had to change. Their website needed to be as fast and flawless as the jewelry they offered. However, the question was how to achieve this without sacrificing the visual quality that customers had come to expect.
That’s when they discovered SpeedSize, a cutting-edge AI media optimization platform. SpeedSize had a reputation for transforming website performance while preserving the visual brilliance of high-quality media.
CHALLENGES
As a business operating in the competitive e-commerce industry, MiaDonna encountered several challenges:
Slow Page Load Times
Customers from different regions reported slow page loading, which impacted browsing experience and conversion rates. For example, in Europe (Stockholm), loading times averaged 208 milliseconds, far higher than the optimal range.
High Page Weights
MiaDonna’s visually rich website featured high-quality images of products, leading to large page sizes. For instance,
- The Product Listing Page (PLP) for “Lab-Grown Diamond Jewelry” weighed 132.4 MB.
- The Product Detail Page (PDP) for specific products exceeded 28 MB.
This created difficulties for users on slower internet connections or mobile devices.
