Does Fraud Blocker’s Tracking code impact my SEO page load speed?

The Fraud Blocker website tracking code has little-to-no impact on your page’s load time for these key reasons:

  1. GZIP Compression: The script uses GZIP compression. This is a popular lossless data compression method that reduces the JavaScript loading times by up to 80%

  2. Asynchronous Loading: The script loads in parallel with other page elements, ensuring the main content on your page isn't delayed.

  3. No Layout Modifications: The script doesn't interfere with your page's visual layout

How does asynchronous loading work?

Our script is marked as “async” which tells the browser not to pause other activities on your site while waiting for the script to download or execute.

In line with Google’s speed optimization recommendations, using async in the <script> tag allows the Document Object Model (DOM) to load uninterrupted, which boosts overall performance.

Modern best practices emphasize loading JavaScript tags asynchronously. This approach lets the script run at the same time as the rest of the page content, so even if the tracking script is slow, it won’t affect the page’s overall load speed.
