Allright ive noticed it a few times but just got a complaint from my "boss" and he says that the site loads slow like he was on dialup which hes not hes on fiber...

but either way this shouldnt be? i would think...

The site loaded faster on the server before this so hes kinda dissapointed...

the size of everything is small for fast loading so we dont know whats going on here...

Hi,

Website speed can depend on a lot of factors. For eg. Try downloading a 10 MB file from Google and Microsoft. You will get your answer. You cannot say, either of them have slow servers. BUT, you still get variable speeds on both.

I will check your DNS but I doubt, if that would help.

Thanks,

Shree

Hmm your site loads ok for me. Not really fast but not slow you know just kind of average. And also I do not even have that great of a computer and internet. So this is kind or wierd.

Actually, the server loaded fairly quick for me. Faster than T17. But the speed does depend on two main things.. the visitor and the server. Lets assume it is the server in your case. Google slow server issue and youll get a few sites that will give you possible causes and solutions.

Here are the test results I ran on your site...

QUOTE

URL: http://www.clashofages.com
Measured Speed (using 10 mbps T3 connection): 1.39 sec

Compared To other sites...
google.com - 0.6sec
arin.net - 0.7sec
apple.com - 1.1sec
microsoft.com - 1.2sec
fedex.com - 2.3sec
usps.gov - 2.9sec
cnn.com - 4.4sec
weather.com - 5.9sec


FYI: Trap17 was measured at 1.64sec and the average speed for the past 3380 test results is just over 4 seconds.

So the server actually doesnt look to bad to me :P - you can do a free website test at http://www.vertain.com/

I have one addition that should be helpful and recommend, remove all that whitespace from your source code, need to add a doc type and also clean up your coding as well. If you clean up your coding and remove the white space you will see a small increase in loading speed of your website.
