Right now, this real estate website is in French (PR4) and I want to redesign with adding an English version. I want to do this the right way... so that's why I'm asking for your reviews and hints.

Pierre,
Take a look at your site through the eyes of this Linux Viewer. The results will give you an idea of how the search engines view your page (s). |

Also, here is a thread about validating code. Just in case your interested.

Jeff,
Is there an ideal page size or text-to-html ratio that I should shoot for. I currently have about 50k in non image files and 218k in image files for a total of 268k. One of my competitor sites (gitta.com) has a total of 667k and another (orlandohomemarketplace.com) has 451k. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bennet |

A general rule of thumb is "eight seconds on a 56Kbps connection." This is based on the idea that a visitor will only stare at a blank screen for so long before attention starts to lapse. They key is to not have a "Blank" screen. Give the visitor something to look at while the rest of the page is loading. ![]() My Internet connection speed is between 3.75 Mbps and 4.5 Mbps and your front page took a couple seconds to load on my end. I would perceive that as "slow." There are so many ways to reduce the load time of a page that slow loading pages just isn't acceptable. But hey, that's just me. ![]() |

Resale,
I visited NetMechanic and find it to be a great tool. Is fixing the validation errors as easy as one click as they state? How important is it in the SERPS to fix these? I noticed your site has a very low page size at about 12k but also has very little in the way of images. I would love to get my site down that low but am afraid getting rid of all my images would take a lot away from the site and possibly hurt my conversion. Do you have any thoughts on this? Bennet |
