Now that Google has modified the Page Rank Algorithm to include the speed at which a site loads, there is an *additional* financial incentive to optimize websites for speed. (Of course the original incentive to do this was to improve user experience, but Google has now given us a measurable metric for OCD web developers to obsess over.)

Many articles and techniques have been published about this, and I won’t try to re-invent the wheel here. This article concerns how to embed scripts in your HTML page using CMS Made Simple.

The conventional wisdom is that it is best to add javascript calls at the end of your HTML document in order to prevent javascript blocking from delaying the loading of CSS images and other external resources on your page.

The technique I am about to explain will reduce page load time regardless of whether you put your scripts in the HEAD or after the FOOTER. But it is especially useful for scripts that have to go in the HEAD and execute immediately such as modernizr.js, head.js, and web font loading scripts such as fonts.com or Typekit.
