As a programmer, I appreciate web sites that take (nearly) no time to display, instead of waiting for eye candy. My website,
http://www.richelbilderbeek.nl follows my personal liking. But when possible employers want to see your work, you cannot expect them to click on 'Click here to see a screenshot of X'-links. So I decided to add three galleries:
- Game gallery:
http://richelbilderbeek.nl/GamesGallery.htm
- Tool gallery:
http://richelbilderbeek.nl/ToolsGallery.htm
- Project gallery:
http://richelbilderbeek.nl/ProjectGallery.htm
And I found out, from the number of visitors to these new pages, that these galleries were visited immediately after putting them online.
So, these new slowly-loading pages do satisfy the needs of some of my site's visitors.
But especially, those are the pages to show off with!
