http://myway.com/ This is an example of a simple site that is proud of that fact. Note "this page took xxx seconds" Advertise the good features of your site. "this page works with any browser", "works with a palm-pilot", "ready-for-google", "accessible", "html4.0", etc. One feature that I can't find a way to express in a positive manner is "doesn't take extra CPU". Read: I try to stay away from nana, ynet, and the sort because they qre not only slow to load, but also slow to maintain. If I keep 5 or 6 pages of them open, they make their toll of my CPU and memory. "no dual pentuim 5 required"?
