Hurry It Up, Would You?

I’ve been surfing the Bloggy Giveaways this week, and a lot of people want to know how to improve their blogs. I don’t want to single out people and hurt anyone’s feelings, so here’s a general tip for everyone. If you want people to comeback, make sure it doesn’t take an eternity for your page to load. I understand you want to earn money from advertising and you’ve got lots of photos and cool graphics to show off, but if people have to wait forever for your blog to to come up, they probably won’t be back. Nothing is more frustrating than sitting and drumming your fingers on the table while your computer says, “waiting for…” at the bottom. Do a little house cleaning, re-size the graphics, loose some of the junk in the sidebar. If your pages load faster, we’ll actually have time to stick around and read what you have to say.
