First, it requires you to load other content into the main body area dynamically. It also means you don't change the URL ever. Don't try to use techniques that are not standard, there are reasons most companies don't bother with this and your users aren't going to notice your site blinking between pages if every other site they visit does.</p> <p>What you can do is optimize load times, simplify the CSS and HTML so it renders very quickly. This will minimize the impact of the transition from page to page as optimization allows certain elements to load quicker.</p> 2012-03-01T13:50:25-05:00
