design?
Ans: Page loading time is how long people takes to view your website using their computers or laptop.It plays a big part of that first impression is how long the users must wait while your home page downloads. If it takes too long, your visitors may decide not to stay, not to return, and not to tell their friends anything good about you. This matters regardless of what kind of site you run, but download time as a deterrent to repeat visits really hurts an e-commerce site. When designing factors such as size, and complexity of items
Number of connections

Read about Web Design Process article above and
write what you think about it (at least 150 words)
My review: After reading this article, i realized that designing a website will involve a lot of thinking process and strategies. Different company will have different working style, they will use what they think its the best way of working. From this , i’ve learnt that to create a web site you will have to understands your own working style and approach the method that suits you best so to give the best outcome. Also, most of these processes have a common theme that are broken down to Design, Production. A few of these processes don’t include the analysis before any work is done, while some have various stages of design mockups. Some of these processes don’t include post launch activity, such as testing or evaluation.
From this article, i have a rough idea on how webdesign process works and know more about how other companies works before they are going to create websites.
