How important is it to let a web page load completely before clicking on a link to move to another web page ?

I would not worry about letting a web page load completely before clicking on a link to move to another web page.

Obviously if you are doing this you may miss out on some information that the web page has to offer, however the items that normally take a long time to load are images. The Text on the Web Page represents only a small percentage of the data that is being transferred to your PC and you should find that text appears quickly.

Some web users even decide to turn off images and other files that take time to download to improve the speed they access information on the web. In addition website designers/owners can provide a piece of descriptive text for where the image would be displayed.
