Website Optimization- Free website speed test!

Let's face it. If your website is over-taken by images, tons of HTML, inline CSS and a stack of JavaScript files..You're in for trouble. The average image on a website should be compressed and optimized under 30KB. Yes, ideal range would be 1-2KB but it's a bit difficult to reach that. Aim for 5KB, 10KB, anyhting under what you currently have.

The average website should take less than 60 seconds to load for Dialup users (56K, AOL, NetZero, Juno..etc). Yes, there still are the oldies who run 56K Modems and still use AOL. (see my upcoming post about DSL and speed issues to find your carrier)
