Speed Up Your Site - End Your Links with a Slash

When a server opens a link in the form of “http://www.hotut.com/about”, it will need time to figuring out what type of the object (file or directory?) is contained on that address and then it adds a slash (”/”) to redirect to “http://www.hotut.com/about/”. Instead, if you include a slash at the end of that link in your source code, the web server will already know that the link refers to a directory, reducing the time to load the page.

The reduction of loading time of a link ended with a slash may be just some milliseconds, but when it comes to speeding up a website every small bit helps!
