I recently stumbled upon this nice little tool that enables you to check the speed of your site. It basically downloads your site and the download size is mentioned there. This website is approximately 55kB for each page. It then displays the time taken to load the website. After that it will show you the average time taken per kB, which is really the main focus of the tool. So the lower it is the better for you and for your visitors! You can see the results for this site by clicking the image above. Not too bad, eh? Click here to go to the website to check the speed of your website. Do comment below and post the speed of your websites. :)

Well, its a nice and quick way of knowing your sites speed. From personal experience however, if a script on your blog loads slowly or an image from external site is loading slowly, it waits for them to finish and then displays the final time. This sometimes makes it misleading.

Nice tool, but not sure how accurate is it and what all factors does it take into consideration.

@iCalvyn
You should probably check it again. I really doubt it will be that high. If it is, then your site is as slow as a snail…. :)
But more then likely you got the wrong result. You should check again.

0.04 isn’t bad. You should compare it with other sites that are similar to yours. Then you will see the true use of this tool, as the faster a site is the more visitors will tend to return. :)

I’m a bit confused as to their calculation of a site’s size. For example I tested one website with many pictures (abitofmagic.no/video), but this tool reports this site at only 20 kb small.

As such it just isn’t useful at all. Does it only take the raw html code into account?
