After searching what seemed like forever I found a great site for making free website banners.

I looked for a long time to find a free banner maker that didn’t come with a “catch”. This site above was quick and very easy to use. If you don’t mind a very small link in the corner to the website, then this is a free banner maker that I recommend. You can add multiple lines of text, add effects, changes borders and add your own background images. There is much more to what you can do, but I think you get the idea. There is plenty of other software out that you could download and make comprehensive banners, but if you are looking for something simple and fast, this is probably perfect for you.

Now that Google has openly said that Page speed impacts ranking of a web page, it becomes even more important to ensure that a website loads fast. There are tons of tutorials on the web that explain how can simple steps improve performance of a website, but before you jump into them, it is important to analyze the problem areas. You shouldn’t start fixing something till you know what actually the problem is. And this is where these free website performance analysis tools come handy. These tools will give you a good idea about the areas of your website that are running slow, and then you can use tips available on the internet to optimize those areas.

1. Google Page Speed Online

Google Page Speed online is the web based version of popular Page Speed tool from Google. You can enter any URL in it, and it will show a page ranking score, as well as suggestions for improvement. It nicely divides suggestions in high priority, medium priority, and low priority. Incorporating high priority suggestions would have biggest improvement in performance of your website. Page Speed Online can analyze your website performance for a desktop browser, as well as for a mobile browser.
You can read more about Google Page Speed Online, or try it free here.

2. Yahoo! YSlow

YSlow is another popular website performance analysis tool. YSlow installs as a Firefox extension. You need to have Firebug also installed to use YSlow. It does not works with Firebug for Chrome. YSlow will analyze your website’s performance in similar manner as Google Page Speed does, and provides suggestions about improving website performance. It also grades your website on a scale of A to F to show how your website ranks in terms of performance optimizations. Download YSlow here.

3. dynaTrace

dynaTrace is a free website performance measurement and analysis tool that analyzes how a web page loads, and what code can be improved to improve performance. You can install dynaTrace on your PC, and it integrates with IE and Firefox. Then you can run any website, and record its performance analysis report. You can analyze those reports to see the sequence of objects that are loaded, Javascript that might be causing problem, and bench website performance with other websites. dynaTrace is a pretty useful tool that you can start using while you are developing a website, so that you can take care of performance from beginning itself. Download dynaTrace here.

4. WebPageTest

All the tools that I mentioned above focus on giving suggestions that can improve your website in general. Once you have done that, you might also want to check if any specific object on your website is becoming bottleneck. And that is where WebPageTest comes handy. It is an online website to check website performance. When you enter URL of any web page, it will show exact sequence in which the objects are downloaded. For each object, it shows time to make initial connection, time to download first byte etc. All this information is shown in a nice graphical format. This helps you in quickly determining which object might be taking a lot of time. While writing this article, I analyzed this website with this tool, and found that there is one image that is taking too long, as it was not being routed through CDN. Just fixing that helped me in further tweaking performance of this website. Another interesting feature of WebPageTest is that you can analyze website performance from different locations, and even from different browsers. Try WebPageTest here.

Also check out how to check website performance from different locations.

5. Pingdom Tools

Pingdom tools was my favorite website performance analysis tool, before I came across WebPageTest. This also works a lot like WebPageTest. You can provide URL of the web page for which you want to analyze performance, and Pingdom tools will show you a waterfall view of the sequence in which objects are loaded. It also shows total number of objects that are downloaded, size of objects, and total time taken for web page to load. This tools comes from the makers of free website uptime monitoring service. Try Pingdom Tools free.

5. Compare your Server Speed To Others

Well i personally use two main online services to compare my web-server speed to others. One from IWebTool.com and the other one is Vertain.com IWebTool is my favorite one.

Is there any other tool that you use to analyze performance of website? Let us know in comments.

If you’re a Firefox user who likes to keep abreast of their updates, then Orbit Downloader probably stopped working for you a few weeks ago. Indeed, when Firefox updated to version 3.6.4, the ability to detect flow (known as Grab) does not recognize the stream. When you run the Grab window and load a page with streaming content, the window remains empty or detects a content … just not streaming video you want.

How to fix it?

The official recommendation is to use another web browser like Internet Explorer, or revert to an older version of Firefox.

Neither option is acceptable. Not even a little bit.

However, in the latest version of Firefox there is a set of parameters that allow Orbit Downloader to work again. Change is easy to do, but it does get in a few areas unfamiliar to most Firefox users. Here’s the fix:

1) In Firefox, type “about: config” (without the quotes) in the address bar and press Enter.

2) If this is your first time accessing this special page settings, you may be presented with a warning screen. If it appears, click the button to continue.

3) You will now see a long list of esoteric browser settings. Scroll down the alphabetical list until you reach “dom.ipc.plugins.enabled. (You can also start typing “dom.ipc.plugins” in the Filter window to filter the list so it displays only the settings you want.)

4) Change the following parameters to false by double-clicking on them. While some are already false to leave them alone.

dom.ipc.plugins.enabled

dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npctrl.dll

dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npqtplugin.dll

dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npswf32.dll

dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.nptest.dll

5) Restart your browser

“What I have done!?” Must Read!

By making these changes, you have disabled a new feature in Firefox called “Out of Process Plugins” or OOPP. OOPP isolates plugins (like Flash, Silverlight, etc.) from the primary browser. Plugins run in their own separate process, so that when / if they crash, they do not take the entire browser with it.

It’s a good thing …

… Except when a plugin like Grab needs access to certain information that your browser a.

Changing the settings above disables OOPP, which can make your browser a little less stable. The first thing that makes my browser when I restarted after the changes is crash without warning. After that it worked fine (as Orbit Downloader and Grab) … only inexplicably crash later in the day. Be aware of this and realize that your browser is now functioning in a manner other than the programmers intended. If such accidents occur occasionally and cause you problems, just change the settings back. Now that you know where they are, you can turn back OOPP and off again when you need to use Orbit Downloader.

I’ll leave mine off for now just to see how the instability becomes.

The upgrade means authentication applications such as Gmail and Google Docs, it will take a two-step process before users can gain access to emails or documents with an authentication code generated by Google in addition existing passwords.

The code can be sent by SMS or voice message to a mobile phone, or can be generated by an application on Android, Blackberry or iPhone handsets.

“This requires two identifiers to connect to a Google Apps account, something you know – a password – and something you have – a mobile phone,” said Eran Feigenbaum, Director of Security for Google Apps in the Google corporate blog.

“When activated by an administrator, it requires two identifiers to connect to a Google Apps account. After entering your password, a verification code is sent to your mobile phone via SMS, voice calls , or produced on an application you can install on your Android, Blackberry, or iPhone. ”

Google says it will make it much harder for anyone to break into an account – even if the scammers have stolen the password – but end users will be able to build computer confidence that bypass the system.

According to Google, the two-stage audit is built on an open standard, which should allow it to be integrated with other authentication technologies, and the company is also open source application so that developers Security can customize the technology.

The company says Google Apps administrators, education, and government publications can activate the audit in two stages from the English version of the admin panel control now.

Consumers concerned about safety will be able to sign over the coming months.
