At the meetup group on wednesday I was chatting to Chris from admin and we did a test on the frontpage on my site Rat Rod Videos and we discovered that the loading time was nearly twenty seconds so I reduced the number of posts and inserted a "read more" button into the posts
~
The load time in now just over five seconds and here's the dilemma, by adding the read more button, the video which is normally under the article is now gone and to see it you have to go off the front page.......click the link (people are lazy)
~
I am considering placing the videos before the articles and then adding a "read more" button, although I am wondering if this will mess up with the hierarchy of the tags for seo ?
~
Now the site is a .Tv and the purpose is to show videos and information so to have videos and the option to read more is not such a big deal, but does the iframe of the videos take longer when loading ??
~
So what I have done is to make three different post styles, one with a H2 tag and the video, the next is just the video, then the last is with the article and the "read more" that takes you to the video
~
I would appreciate some feedback on the three options, will having the video up top effect the seo and posts ?/

Many thanks
