I am redesigning a website and it currently has a "splash"
page. The client said that it is up to me to decide whether to keep
it or not. Do you think it will add to the site or annoy
people? Any opinions are welcome.
Not only are splash pages annoying after the first or second time one
visits a site, they're a big no-no for SEO. No rhyme intended. The
very first page a visitor should view should be your home page. It's
the key page on any site and the one that should be the most SEO
friendly. Many times a splash page uses tons of flash - maybe no
text at all. Well, gee - at last look - the se's couldn't read flash
at all or so very little that it's minuscule. So, would the client
rather have a site that's fancy schmancy that will only wear off at a
novelty or do they want a site that is useable and found by the bots?
