Performance spread

PageSpeed scores grouped into Google's tier labels. The shape of the distribution tells you whether the industry average hides a few great outliers — or a long tail of broken sites.

Long tail: 54% of sites land in the Critical tier. This is where the easiest wins live — any site that climbs above 50 outperforms nearly half the market.

Tech stack divergence

Where the local tech stack over- or under-indexes against the national benchmark. Big gaps often signal a local builder's preference — or an opportunity if you're choosing a platform.
