There are plenty of useful information to follow in order to design an outstanding and high-quality website. But among those recommendations, one that is given much importance and attention is to have fast loading website. This should be given high importance because most online surfer are time savvy and they very much don’t want to waste their time waiting for the loading of the site. To them every second counts, the loading of a particular page should not take too long. Failure to address this issue, there’s a possibility that the site’s surfer will just surf for other sites that will give them the same informations but with good and faster loading time. Just check out our secrets that will be good for creating a well-designed and fast loading website for you to keep your web surfer stay longer.


1. Reduce the Use of Images


The best sollution to produce faster loading website is to design it with little images. Using graphics is important in Web Design that really magnify the overall appearance of the page. They makes it more attractive and appealing to surfer. Nevertheless too much use of images can slow down its loading time. To avoid this from happenning, include only vital images to make the page simple, uncluttered and professional-looking. Just remember that making the site simple is truly effective to bring out what’s best on your site.


2. Exclude Using Bulky Images


As stated earlier, using images may increase the loading time of a page. So if the website really needs to include many pictures, you must not use bulky and large images to make it's loading faster. It is important that you reduce the size of an image into smaller one for about 15kb (maximum) for you to manage your load speed. On the other hand, if you need to show a large photo for the sake of your visitors, insert a small image or thumbnail on your page that is link to a larger one. For that matter, the visitors can have an option whether they are willing to wait to view for a larger image to load.


3. Utilize Tables in Creating Simple Icons


As an alternative of using images as icons on your site, just use tables in creating menus. Making tables creatively does not only give your site some great-looking designs but also help you to attain a faster loading time.


4. Reduce the Use of Flash


Flash animations do catch the attention of most visitors. In any case, if you do not manage to use them properly, they can give bad impressions on your site such as bogging down visitor’s system resources and slowing down the loading of the page. To avoid these bad effects, as much as possible avoid using flash animations because it keeps your visitor waiting for a longer time. If it’s really needed, try out to minimize them.


5. Use CSS Styles


Since CSS Style is just a simple HTML code, it loads very fast. So to design website that can load faster, use css styles effectively and creatively. This will catch the attentions of most visitors because of designing its text with some cool effects.


6. Reduce the Use of Animated Gifs


Simillar with images, animated gifs can also slow down the loading of a page. So if it’s not important to include that, just avoid using that effect. This is because it can also be annoying for some visitors to see animated gifs. But if this will help in enhancing the design of the site, just be sure to minimize them.


7. Keep Observing the Loading of the page


After you have designed your site, always keep monitoring of your loading page. Regularly check up for the loading time of your site, will also help to better improve it, in order for you to keep your visitor stay long on and make them come back again for more updates on your site.
