FAQ-Incoming-Linked-Sites

I'm up-loading a graphic from the site to reduce both the size of the graphic that gets loaded and a separate DNS look-up that is required to load the graphic. The graphic is of Linked-sites, or sites linking to interfacebus.com from external sites. The graphic was stored out on Google Picasa, and not on the server, which required the extra DNS look-up.

So the page that held the graphic was deleted and a link pointing to this blog posting added to the pages that pointed to the old page. The point was to reduce that page from maybe 12k of html text to zero, delete the external look-up for the 100k graphic and reduce the over-all load time for the site.

Last month I did the same thing to 2 or 3 other FAQ pages to reduce the over-all loading time of the site. Remember Google rank page loading time as well as just key words.
