www.hillsdale.edu server info

A good server setup can make a huge difference for website performance and may even enhance the ratings in the search engine results since page speed has become an issue.

Http request info

Filesize 9215 bytes

Server headers

Server headers are the response the server sends before the actual content. A correct server setup can speed up a site and free up server resources. Make sure that all headers are set correct. For example dont cache dynamic content and dont close connections unless there is a good reason.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Fri, 25 May 2012 17:56:03 GMT The Date header represents the time when the message was generated, regardless of caching that happened since. It is used by caches as input to expiration calculations, and to detect clock drift.
Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 The Server header contains information about the software used by the origin server to handle the request. The server used here is Microsoft-IIS/6.0
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET The non-standard X-Powered-By header is used by applications running behind a web server to advertise their specific technology. A few examples could be php and asp. The technology used here is ASP.NET
Content-Length: 9215 The Content-Length header indicates the size of the body, in number of bytes. In responses to the HEAD method, it indicates the size of the body that would have been sent had the request been a GET. If Content-Length is incorrect, persistent connections will not work, and caches may not store the response (since they can't be sure if they have the whole response). The content length is 9215 bytes
Content-Type: text/html The Content-Type entity-header field indicates the media type of the entity-body sent to the recipient or, in the case of the HEAD method, the media type that would have been sent had the request been a GET. . The value is text/html
Expires: Fri, 21 May 1993 07:17:03 GMT The Expires header tells a browser when the requested file is to expire. If this is set in the futre the browser may cache the file. A common trick to ensure no caching of content is to set the expires date in the past. The value is the expires header is Fri, 21 May 1993 07:17:03 GMT
Set-Cookie: ASPSESSIONIDCACTDDCT=KKKEFKIDFAEJEBJHPLFOAFJP; path=/ A cookie, also known as a web cookie, browser cookie, and HTTP cookie, is a piece of text stored on a user's computer by their web browser. The set cookie header tells the browser to store this data in a text file. The cookie value is ASPSESSIONIDCACTDDCT=KKKEFKIDFAEJEBJHPLFOAFJP; path=/ bytes
Cache-control: private The Cache-Control header is used to specify directives that must be obeyed by all caches along the request/response chain. Cache directives are unidirectional in that the presence of a directive in a request does not imply that the same directive is in effect in the response. The value is private
