Faster loading pages!
A few mornings ago, while I was beginning to work on new breeder listings, it occurred to me that our rabbitry and caviary listing pages had grown so large and were now taking too long a time to load, especially for dial-up users.
I sat down with the task of breaking each page into individual letter pages. This took me a few days...and this morning I finally published all the new pages. I hope these new, smaller pages will be helpful to our dial-up surfers!
During this week, I'll be back at putting breeder listings in - if you've sent your listing, don't worry, I've received it and it will be put in. As usual, I'll send each breeder a follow-up email once your listing is in the directory! I have had a good number of listings come through that I can't put in - some do not give me the correct website address, some don't send me a full web url (and I just don't have the time to find your site), and others claim to want a premium listing but do not have our link on their site yet.
Please....if you are submitting your rabbitry or caviary for inclusion, make sure the information you send is accurate, and please type your complete website url, including the http://www. at the beginning of it - I have such limited time to get listings in and if I cannot simply click on your link from our listing form to get to your website, I have to push your listing request to the bottom, and save it for a day when I have time to look up and find your website!
My next project is to streamline the Breed Gallery pages so they, too, will be faster loading for our dial up users. During this coming optimization I also hope to put some of the new breed pictures in, that have been sent to me by all you wonderful rabbit and cavy breeders!
Well, enjoy your Father's Day!
