how to make a blog fast and light?

1. install a php accelerator

2. avoid 3rd party embeds, such as dailymotion or ads. they can add more to the loading time (since they lag themselves sometimes).

3. get a dedicated or virtual dedicated server (if you don’t have one already)

I need to tell you.. my blog loads quicker than yours, and im not caching anything, have 2 flash objects, 1 externally loaded image, urchin, 61 mysql queries, and a whole host of top secret plugins. And I just recently got dugg. 😛

You gotta step it up a bit 🙂
