THROW THE WHOLE COMPUTER AWAY

Episode 26: The Website Was Loading Like A Microwave

My website was slow today.

Not regular slow.
Spiritually slow.

You could literally age while waiting for pages to load.

MELTDOWN

I realized I uploaded giant image files directly from Canva without compressing anything.

My homepage basically weighed 17 pounds digitally.

LESSON

Optimize your images.

Because customers will absolutely leave if your website moves like a sleepy turtle.

Fast websites feel professional.
Slow websites feel suspicious.

CLIFFHANGER

Tomorrow I’m setting up email marketing which definitely feels like voluntarily creating more work for myself.
