free web tools

anyone know if these web tools exist and have a url??
1) a site that you enter a url and it tells you how big the full dowload is
and how fast on 56k, 28k, broadband, etc.
2) a site where you enter a url and it tells you the keyword density

http://www.netmechanic.com used to display that information; asks you
to register with an email address - I have never received any
unsolicitated from the service.
http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/ is another online
tool that is kind of handy

I imagine that there are others available.

http://www.keywordcount.com/ is one of many sites

I keep a pay-as-you-go dialup account for just this purpose. I found one
tool on the web that was sposed to simulate it, but it didn't work very
well. I don't think there's any better way to see if a page is too large
than to actually sit there on dialup waiting for it to finish loading;
besides else one can see what *order* it downloads in, which can be
significant, for instance if the table layout means that the page is blank
until all elements have downloaded. I don't think a dry statistic like "45
seconds" would really give the same impression; and it doesn't matter if a
page looks marvellous if surfers are just backing out from boredom

A particular side-benefit of using a dialup account on a DSL line, BTW, is
that it will run even slower than a normal 56k modem, thus simulating a
moderately bad connection. Mine normally can't get above 33k.

It was dialup testing that made me realise I had to offer my content as zip
files, and that encouraged me to change my menu items from gifs to CSS text;
every extra image to download slows the website over and above the raw file
sizes. It also encourages me to create tables that fill incrementally rather
than being blank until the whole table is filled.

Another way to annoy dialup uers is to have a page with a web form for
entering username/password and stealing the focus from the form entry
box while the user is partway through typing. Try this page
[ http://webmail.spamcop.net/ ] with a dialup modem and try to put in
a user name. See what happens?

Hi Carol

ever thought of expanding the density count to pull out linked images with
alt tags and phrases in h1, h2, bold etc?

that would be an amazing tool.

Mark,

That page isn't something I am affiliated with outside of sharing an
URL to on here since it happened to be one that I liked enough to
bookmark on my side.

That is a standard Keyword counter, Bruce Clay has a much nicer one.
