A website is a set of data and information which is available on internet for a reader to gain in depth knowledge about a particular subject.
In today’s time a website is considered to be the face value of a company and hence drawing “the perfect” layout of a website with respect to its look & feel, visibility, readability and most importantly the SPEED is very important.
Site speed reflects how quickly a website responds to web requests. Speeding up websites is important — not just to site owners, but to all Internet users.
