Websites That Work: Part 1

Websites That Work: Part 1
Everyone who owns a website wants to increase traffic to their site. They rightly, or wrongly, believe that increased traffic will produce increased leads and business. However, most of these people never consider “is my website ready for prime time.”
I have been contacted by potential clients that stated “all I want is to increase traffic.” I explain in a short presentation why they might not benefit by just increasing visitors. If at that point they still only want more traffic I politely decline to do business with them.
All your marketing and optimization efforts may be wasted if your website is dysfunctional. Many of your visitors will abandon your website before they ever arrive if your pages are slow in loading. Slow loading pages are the kiss of death for any website.
This problem is often related to your images or graphics that are used. Another obstacle maybe related to the website hosting package that you purchased. You may not have enough bandwidth for your websites traffic.
Let’s first consider the slow loading page due to content. This is usually a result of a page that is loaded with animation, graphics, and images. All of these dramatically slow down the opening of a web page. Consider replacing them with keyword rich content.
Remember at this time, search engines can not read graphics or pictures. So you are better off replacing these with text that includes your keywords presented as keyword phrases (Two or more keywords combined.)
The other reason your pages are loading slowly is a lack of bandwidth. You might want to think of bandwidth as the road that leads to your website. When too much traffic tries to access your website at once it might not be wide enough to handle the volume. Lack of bandwidth slows down traffic to a crawl. You should consider upgrading your hosting plan. Usually, a few more dollars spent on more bandwidth will resolve this problem. If you share a server with other sites, a common practice your site may be slowed by demands placed on the server by other sites.
Remember, not everyone has a cable connection. So If your website is slow loading with cable just imagine how slow it is with broadband connection.

Thanks for sharing this piece of work. Now i precisely know why there was no traffic to my website.Am straightaway going to sort things out.
Hi, yes if you want to grow your business then your site must be optimized and page load time of your site is very less so that any user comes to your site will not getting board and you will find that your business will grow very fast.
This post is very much informative in context. I like to admire the way you explain the topic.
But isn’t a cable connection also typically a broadband connection as well? That’s why I was a little confused by your statement, since I have always been under the impression that a cable internet service is providing the end user a broadband connection.

I think your right dan….Broadband is actually getting pretty fast but still behind your home connection. This scratch my back program is the coolest around. Thanks everyone.
