Site Speed Success Formula = good website latency + fast DNS lookup + high page load speed.
Site Speed Laboratory offers analysis of DNS Lookup speed & latency tests (ping) & Page Load speed for every website. Our analysis is based on data for May 26 2011. Since the first of July 2010 we carried out 23 tests from locations
for the main page of this website, the last of which were made about 3665 hours ago
SiteSpeedLab Overall Website Rating for this website
Based on our speed test results table and considering features of the current webserver location
(United kingdom), we concluded overall
This website speed rank is 10.
That means 10% of the sites from the
are slower for visitors than this website.
It is important to understand that you can't evaluate website speed without considering
website audience location. You should evaluate the speed of the site considering location of your
primary audience (visitors), and not just from abstract tests from various points of the planet. There
is a chance that your website is quite slow for visitors from German but pretty quick for Australian
users at the same time. Based on a primary audience location data Site Speed Laboratory maintains objective
rating. Test servers
located in the United Kingdom and Usa are more useful and important to Tiscali.co.uk
because the shares of each country are 75.60 and 6.70 percent respectively.
You should not overestimate the importance of the website speed factor. Google has more than 200 ranking factors and website speed is just one of them.
DNS Lookup Speed
Browser should lookup domain name and get IP address of the server (212.74.99.30) before downloading the page.
We test DNS resolve for this domain from 5 locations. That's how we've got the
average time of receiving IP: 0.1s (which is better than 67% of all sites).

(Average value on the widget is an average DNS resolve time for websites hosted at the same location).
The main purpose of the testing is a measuring the speed and rating the stability of the latency to this IP from around the world in comparison with sites of the region (the city).

Fragment of DNS Speed rating table for this website
The table is constructed according to the data from the US datacenters
Downloading page itself is the final stage of the testing. Actually, this is the last stage,
after which page is displayed completely for user. The download speed depends on many factors.
Main factors are the following: the width of the bandwidth up to the domain, the number of
simultaneous download threads, speed of the server, a distance between user and domain web server.
Recent measurements have shown the speed of page download for this domain is 28.954Kb/s
(which is better than 10% of all sites in this region).
For more detailed stats check out report for hosted websites.
Page Speed
Page Speed is a key factor in the website speed estimations (along with
DNS lookup speed and website latency).
Speed of the page loading, sophisticated subdomains usage for static content (images, css),
optimized code (html, js), hosting on fast servers with good latency to its audience leads
to good results and, ultimately, to a good website profitability.
While conducting tests we emulate a visit your website using the browser Firefox 3.5.6.

Ways to improve website performance
Once the document (website's main page) has been downloaded, we
analyze it. It allows us to give webmasters some recommendations on how
to optimize page load speed. We analyze the internal and external
factors.
Reduse DNS Resolve
Browsers must resolve site's hosts to display all of the elements of the
Tiscali.co.uk's page. Every domain name resolve requires a time, which
precedes the load from a specific domain. You can speed up page
loading by reducing the number of hosts, from which elements of the
page are loaded.
To display a page, a browser needs to load a lot of small images. Try to
combine images into one and display them via CSS. This technology is
called 'CSS Sprites'. It helps you reduce the number of requests to
the web server, which in turn also requires time and bandwidth.
For more details about this technology read our manual.
This is a good practice to give the user content in compressed form.
We've detected 114.39 Kb of content that could be compressed.
By compressing content you can achieve the size of ~ 28.6 Kb
(saving 85.79 Kb). This would accelerate the page loading speed and would positively
impact the bandwidth savings in Tiscali Uk Limited.

Keep Components under 25K
Users often visit web site using a mobile phone. Even the most modern and advanced gadgets
have some limitations. For example an iPhone browser do not cache page components bigger
than 25K. So you should strive to ensure that scripts, CSS-styles, etc.
are less than 25K.

Avoid 301 & 302 Redirects
Redirect allows you to make website or page available under many URLs. Webmasters use redirects
when their sites change domain name, several websites are merged into one, document is moved too
a new location, etc.
Using a redirect delays content obtaining. Any delay negatively affects on the user experience.
We've detected that page has 1 redirects before page components start loading.
The following list contains some of these redirects:
https://statse.webtrendslive.com/dcsha08v600000kbi1pd6m4vn_6o7f/dcs.gi... redirects to https://statse.webtrendslive.com/dcsha08v600000kbi1pd6m4vn_6o7f/dcs.gi...
Try to reduce the number unnecessary redirects.
Specify image dimensions
The browser needs to know the actual dimensions of image (width and height) to quickly render webpage.
We have detected that the 7 images has no width and height.
If you do not specify the width and/or height, then in order to
correctly display the image browser needs to download it and only then
put on the screen. Otherwise, there is a chance browser will display
elements under the picture inappropriately as well as the possible
presence of "jumping" effect of the page content (until the page load
is finished).
We provide below example of how to define the image https://exitfeedback.appspot.com/assets/image/loader.gif dimensions:
As we have already mentioned, search engine bots can not see the site
like a people do it. They more focused on the descriptions of certain
page elements. That's why we strongly recommend use TITLE operator in
the "A" tag. This operator not only describes the page referenced by
the page more detailed, but also takes part in the page describing.
For example, you have the link on your website:
