    10 Secs, you need to speed it up. Size is fine.. I donno what is slowing it down for me (The redirects sometimes do that)

    8 secs -- your first name (freelipbalm.com) resolved very slowly, maybe one of your nameservers is out?

    second time I clicked the link it loaded in 2 seconds.

    Yeah, 2nd time it loaded within 1 second, I would say you have redirections set up wrong?

    Well, I wouldn't exactly call it quick; it goes through about 4 HTTP redirections :confused: Got to destination and loaded in about 10 seconds, I suppose.

    If you use html meta redirect you might want to google this "301 redirect".

    I use broadband and it took me 10 sec to load. Wow! what an accomplishment .. you are really good at making the web slower

    Get rid of all those unoptimised images, unnecessary spacers and white graphics. Templates sold in the net or done via Photoshop is guilty in eating up and wasting bandwith.

    For me it took some 15 seconds (this until I saw the first images).

    To see the full-page loaded I would need moore.

    Anyway consider this: I have DSL 4.8 Mps connections but I'm from Italy.

    Anyway I would suggest to speed it up.

    Bye,

    You've got some weird redirects on that page mikejmu. Empty your temp-folders , clear all cookies, reboot your computer, and try again: you'll see how long it takes..

    And it seems rather consistent. No matter how many times I try, it still goes the same.
