Check your Server Speed

By Darren On November 1, 2008 Under General

Ensuring your server is running as fast as it can is important to your business online.  There is a great tool from iWebTool called the ‘Website Speed Test‘ where they will analyse your website along with up to nine others at the same time and give you the load time for your site along with the average speed per KB.  The lower this final value is, the better your site is running.

As you can see from the image above, this blog isn’t running as fast as it could do potentially.  As this isn’t yet a full-time venture and is only a hobby, purchasing a dedicated server is not viable, but if your server isn’t running as fast as it should, it may be time for you to upgrade.

Thanks for the link. However I think it should be good to be able to check from different locations of the world if your visitors are on an international scale.
