Halve Your Home Page Workshops

martinTraining233x169-q70.jpg

We are running half-day workshops to show website developers and managers how to optimise the size of websites. Participants work hands-on with a copy of their home page, with individual support.

Our trainers will show you how to apply proven techniques of analysis and optimisation, and share our experience of internet usage in less developed countries.

Prior web development experience is useful, although not essential.

Costs: £95 per person (£45 for non-profits)
Cost includes lunch and training packs.

Is your website globally visible?

http://blog.aptivate.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/graph1.png

Since 2003 the average website has tripled in size.

Meanwhile Internet speeds to Africa have increased by only 60%.

According to Google research:

“Half a second delay caused a 20% drop in traffic.”

…and yet in a typical African university the average website would take over 2 minutes to be visible.

Is this hard to fix?

The answer depends on your site. Often we can halve the size of a web-page in less than 2 hours, using a few simple techniques. We have published guidelines to help organisations do this and also run training courses.
