• Use MS Visual Studio 2010 which helps you in optimizing your .NET code for better performance.
• CSS sprites are very useful when you have a lot of images in background.
• Compress the contents of JavaScript files using gZip compresser and CSS file by removing white spaces and comments.
• Avoid HTML comments as they are visible to client side by "View Source" option in browser, which will also reduce the file size.
• Put most of the unnecessary JavaScript at the bottom of the page. For better performance dynamically load the JavaScript references after loading contents on your page.
