Top 5 ways to Minimize your website load time
Website load time is the most important part of your website/blog. Some of us do get a glitch in our traffic every now and then and when it starts getting out of hand the website takes more time to load which becomes quiet frustrating for the visitors. To avoid that try one of the following tools
1. Yslow
A Firefox extension that analyzes any web page and generates a grade for each rule and an overall grade. If a page can be improved, YSlow lists the specific changes to be made. It offers
- Performance detail
- Summary of HTTP/HTML
- List of page components
YSlow calculates the total size of the web page for both empty cache and primed cache scenarios, as well as information about cookies. YSlow lists all the components in the page including their type, URL, Expires date, gzip status, load time, size, and ETag. You can also view the HTTP response headers for any component.
2. Mon.itor.us
Mon.itor.us is a online service that provides tools to enable monitoring and reporting of site response time.
To take advantage of this service all you need is a web browser and an internet connection. The approach is called on-demand or software as a service (SaaS), which provides significant cost and simplicity benefits over the traditional software model.
3. Jmeter
Apache JMeter is a pure Java desktop application that designed to load test functional behavior and measure performance. It is used to test performance both on static and dynamic resources (files, Servlets, Perl scripts, Java Objects, Data Bases and Queries, FTP Servers and more)
Apache JMeter features include
- Web – HTTP, HTTPS
- SOAP
- Database via JDBC
- LDAP
- JMS
- Mail – POP3
