Want Free TV information even faster? See UK Free TV!

I have implemented a number of changes to the site today that are designed to make it run faster and be even easier to use.

Thanks once again to everyone for their feedback. I have taken note of recent comments and have I hope - come up with some changes you will like.

Some of these changes are invisible, such as a number of improvements to the database.

The first change is the introduction of a fifth web server for UK Free TV. In additon to the main server, the two graphics servers and the overlay server, I have added a new Amazon Web Services instance to serve the large images used for the site background.

This has had a useful effect... UK Free TV now loads in less than a second, like this 706 ms result.



I'm quite proud of the "faster than 94% of all tested websites".

Layout improvements

I have added in a breadcrumbs system, as well as new heading font:
