The Need for Speed: Yslow Toolbar

When was the last time you were frustrated by a website's response time?  If there is a notable delay between clicking and the resulting action, even a few seconds can feel like slow motion.  Of course, fast response times keep visitors on a website, but did you know that quick response also influences search engine placement?  Since speed is crucial to the visibility of a website, how does Anttix ensure that your site runs at Mach 1?

Anttix uses a widely known tool called Yslow.  Yslow allows web developers to test the speed of a website and its load times.  Initially, it monitors the data being sent to your computer.  It then grades the site based on more than twenty imperative categories, ultimately awarding a specific performance score.  The score tells you how well your site performs.  

By using this nifty tool, Anttix further optimizes your website.  Optimization is an extra step we take in producing quality websites, which, in turn, yields high search engine recognition.  For more information on Yslow, visit http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/.
