Page loading time is an important issue for webmasters and its importance increases as competition grows fiercer and large data centers play important role in delivering Web content.

On the other hand, keywords are still important and they are the sparks that kindle the flames of the search engine industry.

Every webmaster and Web site owner needs some kind of tool sometimes. These are not tangible tools like those of the blacksmiths and carpenters. These tools can be scripts, snippets of code and classes, online tools, desktop applications, applets, cheat sheets, links lists, scripting and programming libraries, Web development frameworks, integrated development environments, applications as online services, image processing applications and databases.
