Find Website Loading Time with Pingdom Tools

Find Website Loading Time with Pingdom Tools



Google has hinted that if you want to make your website rank in the top then you need to make sure that its loading time is reduced. This is because Google wants to make sure that all the websites listed on the Search Result Pages would load real quick, hence here is a Online Tool offered by a company which offers website monitoring service and which can be tried here. The tool would need you to Enter any website or webpage URL in order to get started after which it would load it completely and give you the stats. You can even try out the Google Page Speed Tool which works similarly giving you some suggestions on how to reduce the load time.



It basically works by loading the total HTML Page which includes all its objects like Text, Images, CSS Files, JavaScript Codes, RSS, Flash Files, Frames/iFrames etc and then give a detailed report which would have complete details on how much time each of the above mentioned individual objects would take to load. Based on this report you can optimize your website and make sure that its not going to take much time in loading. Some suggestions for reducing the loading time would be

.








  1. Hosting all your advertisements on the same server IP or else on a single server to make sure that whenever your website loads all the ads would quickly loading and the server would not have to connect to multiple resources and increase the loading time.

     

  2. Compress the Images like GIF or JPEG and make sure that you dont reduce the quality but just the size because thats what that matters in website loading. If you can retain the same quality then there is no issue in compressing the Images.

     

  3. Fix CSS Files and try to remove the useless CSS Codes which are not going to be used. This means that if you are having a lot of CSS Codes for some functions which arent being implemented then you should remove them and reduce the overall size.

     

  4. Enable Gzip Compression using different pluins or using modules on your server itself because this can make sure that the output of the files are reduced and would load quicker.



Build Social Networking Site like Orkut – Dolphin Review

Build Social Networking Site like Orkut – Dolphin Review



Orkut is pretty big atleast in India because of the Interface and the looks and everything which is why i have seen that the Generation Y still does not want to move to either Twitter or Facebook and still stick to Orkut. Well on the same thoughts i thought of building a new Community for Patels – which is our community where people all over the world can join and stay connected. Along with this in the long run we can even set up matrimonial options, payments for premium members and also charge the members to get access to others private details for the matrimony system. The search for a good script didnt take much time because the one which i found was called as Dolphin offered by Boonex.



The script is so powerful that it offers a single package for creating your own Social Network, Web Community, Dating Site, Matrimonial Website which comes with options like Friends, Chat, Messenger, Video, Music, Groups, Communities, Classifieds, Events, Polls, Photo Gallery and lot more. Iam sure it would be very much excited to see how the final site looks like because getting all the before mentioned features through a single script for free of cost looks not to be real but you can check out my new community at Patels Online which is built on Dolphin Script powered by Boonex, with only one limitation which is that Boonex would have links to their website from the footer and you need to make a payment to remove this.






Boonex Admin Panel



The script is around 30mb in size which you need to download and upload to your ftp host, following which the installation procedure will begin. Next you will be asked to install some modules on your server because the script handles Thumbnail Generation, Video & Music Uploads. Once the script is installed you need to register for a Boonex.com free account which would unlock most of the features in your script. The backend looks excellent as shown below which is the Admin Access Section.



The Builder option in Admin Panel is one of the best feature which allows you to Drag & Drop Items in order to make them Active or Deactivate them. Check out the following screenshot which can show you how easy it is to configure the top navigation bar and also individual pages like the Homepage or the Contact Page. The script is heavily customizable which allows you to easily create categories for the Groups and also you can edit the Email Templates sent to your members. There are some features like Hot or Not and Rate the Pictures which can make sure that your Community Members wont be leaving your site soon and would enjoy leaving feedback and ratings for others.




Boonex Menu Builder



The Payment Module is powered with Paypal, CCBill, 2CheckOut & Authorize.Net under which you need to just Enter your Account Details and funds would be transferred to the respective accounts when someone pays to become a premium member. One of the best part i like about this script is that its totally Search Engine Friendly with nice Permalinks for all the pages which are generated ie Member Pages, Articles, News, Galleries, Groups etc.

How to Fix Low Virtual Memory Error in Windows

How to Fix Low Virtual Memory Error in Windows

August 12, 2011

Generally when you install/run very big applications like 3DMax, Adobe Photoshop or Macromedia Dreamweaver the windows based PC’s start giving you a error message saying – Your system is low on virtual memory. To ensure that Windows runs properly, increase the size of your virtual memory paging file.




Reasons for Low Virtual Memory :



Lets say you are running a application like Adobe Photoshop and while you are rendering a big sized image the pc starts using high amount of RAM and when there isn’t any adequate Random Access Memory on your PC which can handle processing of this data. This is when the PC starts using the Virtual Memory.







What is Virtual Memory :



Temporary storage used by a computer to run programs that need more memory than it has. For example, programs could have access to 4 gigabytes of virtual memory on a computer’s hard drive, even if the computer has only 32 megabytes of RAM. The program data that does not currently fit in the computer’s memory is saved into paging files.



Finding Source of Low Virtual Memory Problem :



In order to quickly solve this problem you need to first find the source of it by checking out the Task Manager and analyzing all the programs to find which one of those is using the highest memory and closing them. This way you can close the programs which you are not actively using and those which use high amount of your memory.



Click on Windows Task Manager > View > Select Columns












Next Click on Select Columns option from the View Menu and Check on Virtual Memory Size Option

How to Start Windows in Safe Mode?

How to Start Windows in Safe Mode?

June 13, 2010
Question : I have been a Windows User from the past 9 years and whenever i install some new software application, i get a error on my computer which asks me to restart the computer in Safe Mode and then uninstall the recently installed software to fix the issue. Iam really confused how to restart the computer in Safe Mode and get access to it because whenever i start the computer it shows me Welcome to Windows Screen and then ‘Loading Windows’ but no option like Safe Mode is found in the Control Panel too. Please help me find it.


Answer : In every Windows Operating System starting from Windows 95, 98/Me, 2000, XP, Vista to Windows 7, you will be able to boot your Windows in the Safe Mode. This means that this isn’t any option in the control panel but starting your computer in a completely Safe Mode where in you can perform different tasks. Anyway in order to get started you will have to from your normal Windows Operating System, click on the restart button and reboot your computer. Once the PC starts loading, following a beep you need to press the ‘F8′ key on your keyboard multiple times so that you don’t miss the function of entering into the Safe Mode.

Next you will find a list of options which would ask you to select one of these as listed below.
  • Safe Mode
  • Safe Mode with Networking
  • Safe Mode with Command Prompt 


Based on your requirements you can select the option and continue with your main task. Sometimes these options wont be working which is when you can use the System Configuration Tool Method, under which you need to click on Start > Run > msconfig.

Next you will get a new utility, under which you will find different Startup selections under the General Tab. Next under the BOOT.INI menu in the main tabs you will find different options out of which you need to select the /SAFEBOOT under boot options which would then perform the same action and would confirm you to restart your computer, which once done would start your computer in Safe Mode.

How to Read Popular Magazines Online for Free?

April 20, 2010
There are many different ways through which you can read different magazines online for free of cost but in this article iam going to show you a excellent way which was sent to us by one of our blog reader. Generally most of the paid magazines are paid ones and the subscription costs range from 20-100$ per year which is the reason if you try to opt for a few magazines the total annual bills would reach to bigger numbers.


First of all you need to download the Safari Browser which comes preinstalled in Mac computers and which is available as a free download for my readers. Next you need to go to the Advanced option in it by clicking on Edit > Preferances > Advanced > Show Develop Menu in menu bar. Click on the checkbox to yes.


Next you will find a new option on your Browser’s Menu Bar under the name of Develop where you need to select the option of iPhone Agent. Go to Develop > User Agent > Mobile Safari 3.1.2 iPhone.




Once this is done what really happens is that, your browser now opens websites as if they were loading on a Apple iPhone. This would make you access the iPhone optimized websites inside your Safari Browser. Next access the URL http://imgs.zinio.com/iphone/. Next you will find a list of ebooks as shown in this screenshot which when clicked would open in full screen on your browser and also a recommendation that if you open these on iphone, landscape mode is recommended. Overall a excellent website for apple iphone users which can now be accessed on your computer and accessed anywhere anytime.

April 20, 2010
Does your computer hang regularly when you are use multiple applications which include high resource using software’s like Mozilla Firefox, FTP Programs etc, and the only solution offered by your PC Seller is that you need to upgrade either your complete PC or else your RAM to the maximum compatible RAM.

Once you install this small application you will get a report with the total Memory Usage currently used and the Average and Maximum Usage. You will be able to clean the System Cache and Trim Processes. Once these settings were run i was able to decrease my memory usage from 55% to 45% which is a quite good result because while you are running numerous applications which are all useful, any small increase in free memory can help you easily handle your applications easily.
