In today's world of instant results, customers are often not prepared to wait for your website to load. Frequently a website will be missing out on vital customers purely because the pages do not display in a quick enough timeframe. Almost all of us at some point have pressed the webmasters most feared button - the BACK button, because a page has not shown, or because images are taking too long to display.

There is also another aspect to the speed of a site being slow; if the page loads slowly, this is a sure fire sign that the web server is having to work extremely hard. Whether it is because it is having to perform too many processes, or because it is having to serve up very large files, either of these is likely to cost you money - either in bandwidth excess charges, or in downtime when your server eventually decides it needs a break!
