Manhattan Website Development Company Offers Advice On Making Business Websites Load Faster

Leading New York website development and design expert explains that slow-loading pages will not only turn off visitors, but will negatively affect search engine placement as well.

According to Peter Crisafi, Vice President of dzine it, Inc., a leading Manhattan website design and website development firm with clients throughout the United States, it is now more important than ever for business website owners to correct slow-loading pages if they want to ensure success online.

“A new primary focus of Google is page load times and the search engine giant is now taking a website’s speed into consideration as part of its ranking algorithms,” says Crisafi. “Therefore, in order for a website to be successful, the speed at which it loads must be taken into consideration.”

According to Crisafi, Google isn’t the only one that notices the speed at which a website loads. Visitors are likely to abandon a web page more quickly if it is slow to load.

“Fortunately, there are a number of ways to reduce the time in which it takes a page to load,” he explains, “and most are common sense rules that every professional web developer should follow.”

Crisafi says that by reducing the file size of a website’s images and removing unnecessary website codes are just a couple of ways to decrease the time in which it takes for a page to load.

“If you can keep the file size of all elements on a single page to no more than a total of 200KB, including images, you can really decrease a website’s page load time,” he explains. “Another way to ensure that web pages are not loading too slowly is to choose a good quality hosting service where you can be sure the servers are not overloaded.”
