SEO

I was wondering how long or big a page can be, lets say the index page, before it starts to become a problem to people on dial up ( load times )

I know its not really an seo question, but it is an optimisation question so i thorght it prudent to put here

Download time calculator

People still on dial up have come to expend a more delayed viewing experience.

However, if you want to ensure that this particular audience is not going to bounce from your site, then you need to keep the total size of the page, including all images, etc, very low.

Use the calculator above, with an overhead set at 50%, to see the different load times. Focus on the 56k modems.

As soon as your page takes more than a second or 2 to load, you're losing visitors.
