Website evaluation website!!!

[horhay]

Hi guys don´t know if this is exactly the right place for this but:

I found this amazing link to a website that evaluated your own website's performance and gave a score out of 10 for things such as page loading speed, and listed broken links etc...

I thought I´d bookmoarked the site, but obviously didn´t and now can´t find it!!!

It was called something like ratemysite.com or evaluatemysite.com I think!...

Would really appreciate someone supplying a link to it again!

Thanks so much...

If you want a useful tool, go here or use the Google webmaster tools.

and in relation to a tool that tells you your site page download time, you don't need one of those. I can tell you that your three sites in your signature take too long to download. They are extremely nice, and I notice you put the emphasis on pictures more than text, but those images are going to stop anyone with dial-up unable to see your websites.

Thanks so much marincky,

giving the link you posted a try now,

I know the flippin sites are too slow! its really bugging me!

I´ve resized the pix, cropped them, and saved them as jpegs but if i go below 80% when i save them, they start to block out and look rubbish, have you got any tips... I´ve noticed other sites using massive pictures as their mainstay on say the hompage but still getting fairly good load speeds...

I think I´m just missing something basic, like making sure the pix are 72 dpi, but I´ve checked that already and they are...

ps, that website evaluation website was way cool though, gutted i can´t find it no more...

Hey marincky.

just as an example,

how did you get your whizz catz header image down to 14kbs its mega crisp and clear!!! Looks great...

I seem to lose so much quality if i go below 80kbs for a similar size image...

Cheers,

ps, just having a play with trial web ceo, it looks scary in that could be interpreted by the search engines as scanning for results... it came up with a message saying, it was scanning at a slow speed so as not to be picked up by the search engines... sounds alarming, no?
