Optimizse your pages for speed.

Ok, so you've spent all this time optimizing your pages and you're not sure exactly how good your optimization is. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) has many facets: keywords, images, scripts, onsite/off site, links, etc. Page speed is an important factor, more for human visitors than our eight-legged friends ('spiders' to you and I).

Wouldn't it be great if you could get someone else's opinion on your page speed? For free?

On the resulting page, you will get quite a lot of web page speed diagnosis statistics: Global Stats, Object Size Totals, External Objects, Download Times and Page Objects.

But the best part is at the end of the page - Page Speed Analysis and Recommendations. Currently, this section is broken down into 11 areas covering page objects, images, CSS & HTML. Helpfully, colors are used for each area to focus your attention to those areas judged to be the weakest.

On a sample page I checked, I was surprised by the number of images I had on the page. I was pleased however, that my scripts we 'tidy' as confirmed by the analysis breakdown.

i personally think website speed is one of the most important factors in web marketing, yes your seo may be good enough to get you top of google but is it good enough for people to actually use your site?
