A comment on GitHub Pages with a custom root domain is slow.

I don't believe the lose.

On a GitHub page are programming specific solutions for a problem a developer has.

When somebody search for a problem or find a link to a GitHub Project, he/she will visit the page.

All others don't have an urgent problem to solve, so you loose only users, that not need your solution. Can live with it. ;-)

That's what I thought too, although as far as I can tell it's possible to host any content on github pages. I suspect the majority of it is programming projects though, and programmers are not going to give up that easily.

Thats what i mean, if i want an information i try to get it and not give up because a server take 5 seconds "the first time".

Common Enduser surfin the web are an other species, but what should they seek on a github page ?
