10 tips to creating fast loading websites

Rating: 4 stars

Seems to me like most web users (me included) are always in a hurry when browsing. Statistics show that, without a compelling reason, the average user will not wait for much more than 10 seconds for a page to load. So does that explain why your visitors seem to spend less than 5 seconds in your site? Probably your site is taking too long to load thus putting off visitors.

As you design your site, loading time should always be a priority if your site is to be an effective business tool. Balancing usability and aesthetics is a delicate matter when creating a fast loading site. You can have a colourful website but takes ages to load while on the other hand you can design a simple site that loads faster than you can brink. Below are 10 tips and tricks that I have found very useful that you can use while designing your fast loading website..

Why Should A Search Engine Trust You?

Rating: 4 stars

Because search engines are getting thousands of new pages a day and who knows how many authors they tend to be very sceptacle about new content. You need to convince them that you are a trusted source of reliable information (whatever your information may be).

The best way to have them take you seriously is to have some high ranking sites with plenty of trust point to your site. That is not very likely to happen as large powerful sites generally do not give out links to small or new sites. It does happen occasionally and that can be another problem altogether. I have seen sites overwhelmed with traffic. That's a good problem, though..

W3C Validation Not A Ranking Factor In Google

There have been many arguments as to whether or not Google search engine ranking factors look for a clean code in a website. The W3C Schools have brought forth a very popular and widely used tool, called the W3C Validation and the CSS Validation. Basically, both these tools look at your HTML and CSS Style Sheet that code your website for any errors that may arise. This free tool will scan all of your code to make sure it is compliant with current web standards and free or any errors.

Recently Matt Cutts, Google software engineer, has said again that the W3C Validation does not affect search engine rankings…

Have Your Site Ping for More Traffic

Rating: 4.3 stars

A common function built into many weblog tools is ping, no I'm not talking about the common network tool for testing to see if a network node is running and available. This ping is for letting websites know that your weblog has been updated.

There are many ping servers available to send ping notifications to, most notably VeriSign's Weblogs.com server, but there others like Yahoo's blogs, and Google's new blogsearch engine.

Pinging is something that every site owner should know about. New search engines that spider weblog content and Really Simple Syndication (RSS) feeds are gaining in popularity...

Google FreshRank

Rating: 2 stars

If you've ever used the removal tool, you'll notice that the page count of the website in question has not been changed, but rather the pages simply fail to show up. Why is this? Because with the URL Removal Tool, these URLs have not been deleted; they have only been filtered out. So even though these pages appear to have been removed, they are certainly still in the database somewhere.

There is a patent application in the US Trademark Office from Monika Henzinger, published in July, 2005, that certifies that she has figured out a way of determining a document's "freshness." In an attempt to associate this new term with Google's other patented terminology (namely PageRank and TrustRank), forum posters are now referring to the concept as "FreshRank."
