    Abstract: A method of identifying content, in particular images, that web page visitors view upon an initial connection to a web page. The method includes the server identifying the content most likely to be viewed by a user upon visiting a web page, and prioritizing that content such that the user can interact with the web page without buffering interruption. For example, the method connects each image in an HTML code to the ultimate location of the image on a user's browser, allowing the server to prioritize images to send to the user's electronic device based on the location of the image. As such, the method represents an improvement over existing loading protocols, including the HTTP/2 protocol, by utilizing image location information to identify and prioritize images, and thus determine what images to send to the user's electronic device.
