13 Rules web developers need to care

August 1st, 2007 . Posted in Webdesign.

Hey guys, developers, do you think are these all what we have to care about for a fast loaded website? I’ve read this recommendation from Yahoo and was very impressive. As one of a web developer i always wanted to share this, and recommend for light weight web pages. As the fact some might still build web page layout using table which is not recommended and very classic because using too much table in pages could also heavy the page and seems there is no need to use table more longer since everything can be done in CSS.

13 Rules for making web pages fast (Yahoo)

  1. Make Fewer HTTP Requests
  2. Use a Content Delivery Network
  3. Add an Expires Header
  4. Gzip Components
  5. Put CSS at the Top
  6. Move Scripts to the Bottom
  7. Avoid CSS Expressions
  8. Make JavaScript and CSS External
  9. Reduce DNS Lookups
  10. Minify JavaScript
  11. Avoid Redirects
  12. Remove Duplicate Scripts
  13. Configure ETags

More i think we should always keep in mind about the technique of using xhtml, css, and tabless to make the site become standard.
