Make it light

If you are hosting a personal site, then make sure that your page doesn’t have unnecessary large files. Remember that every time a particular page is requested, the same amount of files is forced over the internet. So for example, if your page is 100 KB-worth, then 100 KB of your bandwidth is used. Besides, if your site is designed to have pages go back to one particular menu page to access other links, large files can make your broses crash. Even if the page is already in the cache of the browser, it is till rebuilt every time that particular page is being accessed.

Use video and audio only when necessary. Images can be resized or save in a less but still acceptable resolution. Text can also be split to several pages. In this case, light is right.
