Performance Upgrades, and Tools Announcement
Hi Everyone, Last night we cleaned up some minor things that should now improve speed. Our homepage also has less going on, for faster loading times. We’ve looked into some research and have observed results that “prettier” web pages with a lot going on tend to load slower than others. That is particularly why our homepage is quite simple. Because of this, URLs are literally shortened in a second or less. We’re very excited to have this kind of speed and performance. We’ve also compared our speed to our larger competitors. Tr.im’s overall load page time, and URL shortening time was horrible. Way too slow for those on the go. Bit.ly loaded faster and shortened faster than Tr.im, but not as fast as Dalt.in. We suspect this because Bit.ly is using a special and fancy JavaScript. We have minimized that from our site so your shortened URL pops up much more faster.
In other news, the planning of the Tools page is going great, in fact, we’re almost finished. Sometime this week we will be rocking out the plans and start putting them into action. I won’t be sharing our plans in this post, but expect it in the next one, or the next few coming up!
Thank you all so much for the support!
Enjoy!
