Yes site speed is a crucial ranking factor. 3.5s is slow considering the standard. try to improve it to 2.5s.

Yes, site speed can impact your rankings, but a 3.5-second load time is usually fine for most blogs. Faster sites give a better user experience, keep visitors from bouncing and can slightly improve your SEO. If you can get it closer to 2-3 seconds, that's even better, but 3.5 seconds won't hurt you much.

3.5 seconds isn’t terrible, but faster is always better. Google favors sites that load under 2-3 seconds, especially on mobile. So yes, improving speed can give you a ranking edge and better user experience.
