Website Optimization
Your
website has only 10 seconds to catch someone's attention. Any more than that,
and you risk losing your customer. Website optimization deals with taking your
existing website, and optimizing it so it downloads faster.
Website optimization often includes updating the layout using CSS standards
(which download faster than older ways of website layout), updating the images,
and sometimes even redesigning the pages to make them shorter to load faster.
In my expereince with optimizing websites, it is not uncommon to reduce the amount of unnecessary download by 15 to 40% of the original size. I had one client which after optimizing his site, he saw an increase in the number of users, while a decrease in his use of bandwidth. Where he was looking at having to pay for extra bandwith charges, he does not have to worry about that any more. Now a year later, he averages 50% more customers to his site, and his over bandwidth usage is only now approaching what it was 2 years ago.
Web Site Optimization gives you several benefits.
- Your users see your site quicker and are ready to move through your site.
- Reduced network expenses caused be the reduction of unnecessary page bloat.
- Your server can handle more visitors because their is more available space to move users through on your web server.
We also work with other web designers on a contract basis to help them with aspects that they may not feel comfortable doing. This includes database design work, custom shopping carts, e-mail forms, and on-line payment processing.
