    Hi,

    Where is your host? Your web page is a total of 142.1 Kbytes which means that a 56K modem user requires at least 35 seconds to download the page regardless of any geographical lags. But your host server doesn't seem that fast. The best transfer rate seems to be from within the US at 5.1KByte/sec and even slower in Europe.

    As a comparison, the home page of amazon.com is only 76K and has high transfer rate (in the 20 and 30K per second from the US and Europe).

    Look at your hosting provider first and then at the amount of graphics on your page.

    Regards,

    Gary

    Compress those images my friend. They are out of control. Your website is much larger than it should be.

    You have images and small ones at that, that are 97 KB and better.

    I don't think it is the network, but I wouldn't want to go to that site on dialup.

    It appears to be originating from the ev1 network probably a reseller.
