ouch! 300k for a home page? I think you and your users would definitely benefit from reducing the file weight. Years ago (back in the dark ages) , when most people were still using dial up (or was that just me?!) we used to recommend a 20kb home page.
Is that 300kb including all CSS, scripts, images and code? Lisa On 20/01/07, Jorge Laranjo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I think that 6 seconds it's the maximum time that the homepage should take to download. But that's dependend of you audience. If many of your clients use 56Kbps modem connection then 300KB is huge. If they all use T1 or even better then 300KB is average.I tend to use by reference 50kb for each page, total! Try to give a thumbnail of your images and then a link to the full version.

Clearly the smaller the better but I've put together a fairly graphic heavy travel website with a homepage size of about 300k. With GZIP switched on in the server I imagine that this will be reduced fairly substantially (we have some huge stylesheets that will compress well).
