Cek & Ricek Kecepatan Website Anda
Sudah SEO Friendly-kah template atau desain website Anda? Itulah poin penting saat kita memilih sebuah desain atau theme wordpress. Mungkin Anda pernah terbayang untuk memasukkan gambar ini dan gambar itu supaya desain website Anda terlihat cantik. Well, website terlihat cantik saya rasa sah-sah saja, namun jika website cantik namun tidak dikenal karena kurang optimal mengkomunikasikan di dunia maya lalu buat apa? Bukankah tujuan kita membuat website adalah mencari banyak pengunjung sehingga mereka dapat membaca tulisan kita, membeli produk atau jasa, atau mengklik iklan PPC sehingga Anda mendapatkan penghasilan dari situ? Namun bagi Anda yang HANYA ingin membuat website untuk memamerkan cantiknya tampilan website Anda kepada teman-teman Anda, itu sah-sah saja. *_^
Salah satu kriteria website yang SEO Friendly adalah website tersebut memiliki waktu load yang cepat. Makin cepat loading website Anda maka semakin bagus untuk Search Engine. Gambar-gambar, script CSS, Script HTML bahkan Java Script yang tidak optimal dapat mengurangi kecepatan website Anda.
Lalu bagaimana mengecek kecepatan load website kita? Jika Anda pikir adalah dengan membuka website kita di halaman browser, itu ada benarnya namun kurang akurat. Selain kita tidak tahu apa saja yang harus kita optimalkan dari website kita, juga karena cara tersebut tergantung kecepatan koneksi internet Anda. Supaya lebih akurat, Anda dapat menggunakan tools dari pingdom seperti dalam artikel yang saya tulis sebelumnya tentang: Cara Memantau Uptime Web Hosting Anda.
Tools tersebut dapat Anda kunjungi di tools.pingdom.com, dari situ Anda masukkan URL Website Anda kemudian klik Test now. Hasilnya biasanya dapat Anda lihat beberapa detik setelah diproses. Semakin cepat website Anda, semakin bagus bagi Search Engine. Kalau bisa hanya 1 detik, namun saya belum bisa menemukan theme wordpress dengan load time secepat itu. :tired
Selamat mencoba..

* Load website cepat hanya salah satu dari banyak kriteria SEO Friendly Website
** FaceBook FanPage seperti di dalam sidebar website budidian.com membuat loading website lebih lama daripada tanpa FaceBook FanPage.
