Remove Unnecessary Elements from Your Template

June 26th, 2008 · No Comments

As a webmaster it is easy to add things to our websites, so no wonder that after some time we might have so many unnecessary elements on our homepage that our site will be significantly slowed down because of this. If that happens, it means that we should do something about it. Let’s take a look at a few things that we do not really need:

Badges of blog directories and top sites can create a clutter, but often do not provide a real benefit. Try not to have more than a few badges.

WordPress blogs can remove the meta data which contains the admin links. It does not benefit the readers at all.

Calendars are only useful on some blogs, where the timing of posts is very important. If in case of your blog it is not that important, then do not bother to have a calendar.

Spread the word: These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and discover new web pages.
