Facebook Ranks Fastest For The Third Quarter In A Row

Facebook continues to outshine the competition in page load times, but not for availability -- but we know that the social network is actively working on improving that.

For the third quarter in a row, Facebook’s home page loaded faster than that of any of the other major social networks. However, the site only comes in fourth place for availability.

Facebook’s average load time for its home page was 1.06 seconds from October 1 through December 31, according to measurements by AlertSite. That speed is one second faster than the average benchmarked during this time period.

YouTube and Linked in ranked second and third, respectively, like they both did last quarter.
