Are you one of those users whose website takes lot of time to load but don't know what is the problem and which component of the website is taking too much time to load.
Generally, several components of a web page (like Iframes, Flash, Javascript, Images, CSS,) can increase the page loading time but it is very hard to pinpoint the exact culprit that decreases the speed of the site. A normal HTML web page may have advertising scripts, YouTube videos, images and so on.
I came across two online services which can help you by pinpointing as which component of your website is taking too much of time to load.
One such service is Site24x7. Site24x7 is a hosted website monitoring service that helps webmasters ensure their websites are up and running at peak performance. The Site24x7 servers sends out HTTP or HTTPS request to your website at regular intervals of time and alerts you if it is down.
This service is available both as free and premium version. In premium version, you get some advanced features such as monitoring DNS/email servers, online web applications and so on.
Both the services mentioned above, will prepare a complete report about every component found on the webpage including details like the amount of time it took for downloading a particular component, the size of that component and the existence of the same.
Hope, this will help you out there to catch the culprits slowing down your website's loading time.
Thanks for writing about us. Nice to know Site24x7 was useful to you
