Minimizing Round Trip Times – RTT

Dec 082009
 

It’s time for another post to help your site load faster. My last post, Suggested Methods by Google for Speeding Up Your Website, finished off with caching. The next step to take for speeding up your website is to minimize round trip times, RTT.

RTT refers to all the requests required when a user accesses your website. This is not a size of file issue, but a number of requests issue. For example, my home page currently has 24 resources that need to be requested and transferred. The less the site has, the faster the transfer. Continue reading »

Use Easy to Remember Functions for Great Website Usability

Dec 012009
 

Keeping a website simple does have it’s benefits. Besides being easier to figure out, it’s often easier to remember how you figured it out the first time. Unfortunately, many websites insist on torturing their users, and this is something even the big boys do. Using Facebook as an example, see how memory failure kicks in, and how it could easily be avoided.

Not Easy to Remember, Not Easy to Use

Over the holiday, my father-in-law asked me how to use Facebook. I’m not a big user, but I post the occasional comment or picture. How hard could it be to explain how to use Facebook? It turns out, pretty hard, and even Facebook hides the help link in the far bottom right in the footer. I guess they are afraid of trying to explain it as well. Continue reading »

Take Ten Steps, Look Back To See If They Paid

Jul 212009
 

When I first started out on my own I worked in the restaurant industry. I started as a dishwasher when I was seventeen, and filled just about every position you could do in a restaurant after that. What I liked most was waiting tables because you are paid by tips. A good waiter will pick up on every bit of advice they can get when it comes to increasing tips, and I had a ton of live by rules. One of favorites was knowing that customers hate to wait to pay the bill. Continue reading »

Poll – Music While Using Your Computer

Jul 082009
 

Monday I wrote a post about why you should probably not have music automatically playing on your website, Music on Your Website. One really good reason came from comment I found on a webmaster forum. The commenter said they are usually already listening to music, and a websites tunes just interrupts their music. That’s a pretty good reason.

I’m not sure how important it really is though, so I think a poll like this will help us get an idea how many do listen to music while using their computer. Is music on a website really interrupting that many music lovers?

Here is the poll: Do you listen to music while using your computer?
