Today’s Tip:

Make sure if you are using iframes that you are leaving enough room for content. Since the style is independent from the main website you loose some control over how it looks. If the content overflows the specific height and width the user will see scroll bars and make it difficult to use when scrolling around the site. You may want to use cURL or another method to pull in that content and view it natively on the site.

    You mentioned moving Google Analytics to the top of the page. Can you clarify why you feel that’s a good idea?

    The new asynchronous Google Analytics code is meant to go above the tag. It is non-blacking and will not slow down the loading of your page. In addition it also allows for visitors to be tracked even if your entire page has not loaded yet.

    Here is the Google Help article that explains it:
