My first Xara Web Designer Website need help.
It is uploaded.
Problem is before official launched next week, friends tried this website saying the downloading time is too long and they will leave the page.
I have optimized the jpeg and png accordingly.
I have only use 1 flash as banner on the first page. the rest of page has changed to jpeg.
Is there anyway to cut down the download time and speed up when people visit this website other than above action already done?

Via wireless router no problem for me in the uk took less than 2 second to download at 1.54mbps download speed tested via www.speed test.net
site looks fine:D
Re: My first Xara Web Designer Website need help.
Wireless Router here in Canada and about the same. No problems. Lots of graphics so if they are on dialup or non broadband...maybe that's why?
Cheers

I see two flash banners.
One along the top and one vertical flash on the left (Amazon Widget).
The site loads in reasonable time for me too.
Re: My first Xara Web Designer Website need help.
The page certainly sucks up CPU cycles though - makes the browser very sluggish. I don't know if it's just the flash banner or something else. I suspect it's the banner, in which case it's probably contributing to the problems your friends have. Flash banners don't need to suck the performance from the page.

Loads fine here in London,UK.
I can see it also needs a lot of work to get it ready.
When it is we will be glad to critique it if you wish ?
Re: My first Xara Web Designer Website need help.
Hi all, thanks for all the help internationally.
1) Remove Pop Up?
My friends were asking me to withdraw the pop up for all the 14 colours (which i used more then 40 hrs :-O) saying this slow down - at the middle of this page 'click here to see large image' where I do pop up for all the 14 colours..
Can all expert here give advise whether to remove pop out or not?
Tears dropping ... ha, is the best part I have played so far with xara..

Dr Who,

As first timer - need to find out what do u mean a lot of work to get it ready? hope you do not mean something about the creating of the web.
Yes please, about the critique... i totally lost in this area...
heard that i got to do article submission too...
figuring this now actually
Re: My first Xara Web Designer Website need help.
Just received the 50 outsource article done on this website.. will start article submission by 12 May 2010..
That means official launching mid this week, I think so - ha, first timer, blur...
Re: My first Xara Web Designer Website need help.
It's getting more and more confusing, the more that I see. The 14in1pack page is just so confusing as are the subsequent pages. I would not buy from this site.
Re: My first Xara Web Designer Website need help.
Too much scrolling on some of the pages...aftera few scrolls I leave...

Ginngoh give it a couple of days before replying here, wait until you get lots of critiques.
You may not like what you read but it will be constructive and well meant. These guys and gals know their stuff , they would not bother saying anything if they did not care .
Hold back a little:)

Ginngoh,
The iphone case popups are .png files and will take a lot longer to load than .jpg of the same size. Changing them to export as .jpg will certainly help page load times.

Opens fast enough here, maybe your friends were downloading a bunch of stuff in the background when they checked your site? ;)
