I have noticed google load times are incorrect in the console

Hi James,

Every tool is always going to show a different time and this can also change from one load to the next. It could be their tool, your server, a data centre, a DB call, a plugin, a cloud resource - each could have a bit of an impact.

I always see different times and numbers - no two are ever exactly the same.

However, at 700ms, that certainly isn't to be considered slow - especially if it is a rare occurrence.

It doesn't sound to me like you really have any issues but if you are checking and checking and checking, you can start to see different numbers and you might get concerned. But I wouldn't be.

If you want to be really sure, hire someone external to do some testing for you.

Are you seeing these numbers in the new Search Console? It'd be worth checking them in the old version, while it's still around, just to make sure they two sync up. I've heard people mention some difference (although not specifically page speed).

Might also be worth running some checks from different locations. If you're always viewing your load times from one or a couple of locations, you may be seeing ideal speeds and not seeing problems other people could be having. Not to say Google is right, but this is one possible explanation for the difference.

You're seeing 1.2 seconds as TTFB in Google or as the overall load time?
