September 20, 2015September 29, 2014 by Md. Anwar Sadat

Loading Time, HTML errors & SEO recommendations are really very much necessary for every site owners.Are you a Web Designer & Developer? If the answer is yes then my answer is No. Like me there are a lot of people who do not have any Web Design & Developing Knowledge.But they need a site for various purposes such as business, blogging, marketing, selling products etc. If they they make a website by a Web Designer & Developer they can’t identify many problems with that ready made website. So what will they do to identify those problems a developer never said to them.

Check a Site’s Loading Time, HTML Errors and SEO

And if they become able to hand over the site to its owner then after receiving to claim against them is really illogical. So one should check the above mentioned mistakes before receiving. But the big question is what should be the tools?

I am providing a list of some tools.

The list is as below:

1. To check the Loading time of a site go to

www.tools.pingdom.com

2. To check SEO Recommendations go to

www.seositecheckup.com

www.developer.yahoo.com/yslow
www.redbot.org

When I have received my first website then I have made some mistakes but i can’t recognise. But now I think you will be able to check your Ready Made sites before accepting from the Web Design & Developers & feel free. specially loading time.
