Default A few good folks to test my loading time

If you get a chance, could a few you check the loading time for my landing page. Just a rough estimate is all I require?

Thanks in advance,
Mike

Map is a tiny bit slow, but is coming from a second source & will take an extra second or so. But otherwise its loading fine at this end

Hi Mike - nice work! Loading is not too bad for me but I have one observation:
On your blog page: para "First ever Yardpool category"
We have even heard of instances of some folks charging a small to each seller.
A "small" what? LOL
good luck,
david

Hi Modern Vox

Loading is fine for me, I ehco the comments of others.

For your interest I did notice that this link opens in a new window http://www.yarpool.com/submit_your_ad.php

Also you have pop up windows for 'feed back' and 'map info'. These seem to take a while to open. I must admit I avoid 'pop ups' in favour for a 'new regular page' for this reason. At the very least I probably wouldn't have the 'feedback' page as a pop up.

All the best

Darren

for some reason none of the pix in your blog page are loading and when I right clicked and hit view picture they didn't come up either. maybe try re-uploading them into the directory.

also when I clicked on the link to your blog it was like a download thing and not a regular webpage. idk what that is for but it would be good if it could open in a regular browser.

I'm on an air card so it loaded a little slower for me. Have you thought about using pics resizer to decrease the size of the pic files? Just a thought.
Good Luck!!
