Website Loading Speed Test

Posted on the January 12th, 2010 under Blog by Richard Toh

How long does it takes to load your website? Website loading speed is one of the important factor if you want your visitors to visit your website again. Imagine if your website takes 1 min to finish loading. how many would have left before they even get to read your article. Worst if your website gets digg.

I discovered a website that do a full page test. At the end of the test, it will give you a summary as follows:

Total loading time: 2.5 seconds
Total objects: 12 (206.3 KB)
External objects: 3 (93.3 KB)
(X)HTML: 1 (15.8KB)
RSS/XML: 0
SS: 2 (15.3KB)
Scripts: 5 (152.4KB)
Images: 4 (22.9KB)
Plugins: 0
Other: 0
Redirected: 0

Pingdom Tools


It will also show you a chart of each object, their load time, load order, file size, file type and url. You can even sort them to suit your purpose.
