My Page Loads Real Slow

[larryhyman]

I set up a special yesterday, here is the URL:

http://www.canadascrubs.com/index.ph...roducts_id=283

The page loads real slow !!!

Is there a way I could get this thing to load faster and maybe present itself neater?

Thanks

You seem to have addressed the image file sizes so I would have to view this as a slow/overloaded server hosting your site.

You might ask your host to move you to a less taxed server

You appear to have Color Sets ... what exactly are those?

Are you trying to give options to order 5 at one time?

This is really going to slow things down vs 1 product with 1 set defined where the customer can continue to add multiple combinations to build a set ...

You see my boss wanted the special like this:

we have a draw-string-scrub-set that sells for 24.95

http://www.canadascrubs.com/index.ph...roducts_id=180

Now he wanted to offer a special of 5 of these sets for 99.00

some notes:

1) he wanted it to appear as 5 units and not 1 for shipping

2) he wants them to be able to choose the color of each set

3) he wants them to be able to choose the size of each set

the way I did the special answers all his requrements, but with 10 atributes for the product, it is very heavy on the database....

does anybody have any suggestions about how I could REDO this THE RIGHT WAY ? HOW WOULD YOU DO IT ?

Thanks again for any help...

ok, we have the regular item online.... how would I apply a special to the regular item where if the count of the sets=5 the price drops from 24.95 to 19.90 so that 5 sets - 99.00 and how do i annouce this special? (I guess i would do this in the special builder or with a coupon?)
