2. Leverage browser caching :

a. Static Compression should be enable in windows IIS
(step of this in above topic “HTTP Compression”)
Web Config setting for this
<staticContent>
<clientCache cacheControlCustom="public" cacheControlMode="UseMaxAge" cacheControlMaxAge="365.00:00:00"/>
</staticContent>
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
b. Enable Dynamic Compression in windows IIS
(step of this in above topic “HTTP Compression”)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Below the screenshot of IIS Setting
 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


After check on both (static and dynamic) checkbox, click on Apply

3. Minify CSS and Javascript
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
  1. Use bundling in MVC :
    try to make one bundle for page to avoid multiple requests
  2. Remove unused css for particular page (means only required css rule should be on page)

4. Minify HTML (GZip compression)
Set response header with GZip
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
--Add attribute on controller like
    [CompressContent]
public class HomeController : Controller
--Attribute code
public class CompressContentAttribute : ActionFilterAttribute
{
       public override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
       {
               GZipEncodePage();
       }

       public static bool IsGZipSupported()
       {
               string AcceptEncoding = HttpContext.Current.Request.Headers["Accept-Encoding"];
               if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(AcceptEncoding) &&
                       (AcceptEncoding.Contains("gzip") || AcceptEncoding.Contains("deflate")))
                   return true;
               return false;
       }

       public static void GZipEncodePage()
       {
               HttpResponse Response = HttpContext.Current.Response;

               if (IsGZipSupported())
               {
                       string AcceptEncoding = HttpContext.Current.Request.Headers["Accept-Encoding"];
                       if (AcceptEncoding.Contains("gzip"))
                       {
                           Response.Filter = new System.IO.Compression.GZipStream(Response.Filter,
                                               System.IO.Compression.CompressionMode.Compress);
                           Response.AppendHeader("Content-Encoding", "gzip");
                       }
                       else
                       {
                           Response.Filter = new System.IO.Compression.DeflateStream(Response.Filter,
                                               System.IO.Compression.CompressionMode.Compress);
                         Response.AppendHeader("Content-Encoding", "deflate");
                       }
               }
      }
}

5. Optimize Images
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
  1. Try to compress images
  2. Add multiple images into single image to avoid multiple request for each image

For parallel rendering add css before javascript
like
<link style….
Then
<script….

Enable compression (gzip)

MVC4 bundling GZIP and headers
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
To properly get the JavaScript files on IIS compressed and served with GZip encoding put the following in your web.config.
<staticContent>
     <remove fileExtension=".js" />
     <mimeMap fileExtension=".js" mimeType="text/javascript" />
     <clientCache cacheControlMode="UseMaxAge" cacheControlMaxAge="365.00:00:00" />
</staticContent>

   <urlCompression doDynamicCompression="true" dynamicCompressionBeforeCache="true" />
   <httpCompression noCompressionForHttp10="false" noCompressionForProxies="false" dynamicCompressionDisableCpuUsage="93" dynamicCompressionEnableCpuUsage="93" staticCompressionDisableCpuUsage="99" staticCompressionEnableCpuUsage="99">
     <scheme name="gzip" dll="%Windir%\system32\inetsrv\gzip.dll" staticCompressionLevel="9" dynamicCompressionLevel="4" />

   </httpCompression>
</system.webServer>
And then on your ISS in MIME Types
enter image description here
change the application/x-javascript to text/javascript
enter image description here
You will now see in DevTools that JS files are being served with gzip in Content Encoding column.

Tip/Trick: Fix Common SEO Problems Using the URL Rewrite Extension

Search engine optimization (SEO) is important for any publically facing web-site.  A large % of traffic to sites now comes directly from search engines, and improving your site’s search relevancy will lead to more users visiting your site from search engine queries.  This can directly or indirectly increase the money you make through your site. This blog post covers how you can use the free Microsoft  URL Rewrite Extension  to fix a bunch of common SEO problems that your site might have.  It takes less than 15 minutes (and no code changes) to apply 4 simple  URL Rewrite  rules to your site, and in doing so cause search engines to drive more visitors and traffic to your site.  The techniques below work equally well with both ASP.NET Web Forms and ASP.NET MVC based sites.  They also works with all versions of ASP.NET (and even work with non-ASP.NET content). [In addition to blogging, I am also now using Twitter for quick updates and to share links. Follow me at:  twitter.com/scottg

How to create a countdown timer in jquery

Create a countdown timer in jQuery First we need to include the jQuery library file to the HTML page to perform this task. To do that we need to understand that what exactly a jQuery library fie is ? JQuery library file is the library of JavaScript, which means this file contains the predefined functions of jQuery. We just need to call these functions to perform the task. jQuery functions reduces the lines of code and makes our task easy. As this jQuery library file contains the javascript functions so we need to call the function within <script> </script> tag. Now after including the file, we need to define a variable which will store that for how long you want the timer on the page(c=60) and now the time you set needs to be changed in hours , minutes and seconds using the code “ var hours = parseInt( time / 3600 ) % ;var minutes = parseInt( time / 60 ) % 60; var seconds = time % 60;” Now we need to put the condition if timer got finished (if (t
