Very slow website...

Post by Rick »

Joan had requested some comments earlier on, about how to get more people visiting the Bear Moutain website... During the last couple of days I'd given up trying to get on here because of the slowness in getting the home page up on the screen. Every other website was working at normal speed.

I suspect the slowness arises from the photos up top that fade in and out when the home page loads up... after that's going, the pages appear with normal speed.

Just a thought if getting more visitors here is still an issue. Some days, the slowness is too much to deal with, and my guess would be that it might also be keeping new people from the site as well.

PS... I'm on dialup here in Central Ontario, that's all that's available, except expensive satellite. Might be different for high-speed users.

I concur with Rick, I have found the site to be quite slow as well. I won't give up, but as Rick said it might discourage new traffic. I too am on dial-up, but it wasn't this slow before.
