Speed Up Your Site: Web Site Optimization

ABSTRACT

From the Publisher: User patience is a time bomb on the web. It starts ticking each time someone opens one of your pages. You only have a few seconds to get compelling content onto the screen. Fail, and you can kiss your customers and profits goodbye. You can't count on fast connections either. Most of your customers are still sucking content through a 56K straw. You have to serve up greased lightning or they'll bail. That's why you picked up this book. You'll learn how to cut file sizes in half. You'll trim HTML, XHTML, CSS, graphics, JavaScript, multimedia, and bandwidth costs. Real-world examples illustrate techniques with percentage savings. After reading this book, you'll know how to make your pages literally "pop" onto the screen.
