|
If you're looking for a way
to decrease or speed up a web page load time, these tips are for you.
The main page of your web site should load within 8 seconds or less with
a 56K modem.
According to two surveys, conducted by Forrester Research and Gartner Group,
ecommerce sites are losing $1.1 to $1.3 billion in revenue each year due
to customer click-away caused by slow loading sites.
Tips for keeping your load time down:
• Avoid large, slow loading
graphics
• Avoid using too many graphics
and/or banners
• Avoid using too many animated
graphics
• Optimize your
graphics
• Avoid using any unnecessary
code
• Avoid making your pages too
large
• Avoid using too much
Java
• Avoid using too many
JavaScripts
If a page takes
too long to load, your potential customer will not wait -- ultimately costing
you business.
