Flash movies are one of the
products of the tech innovations in the past 20 years. Through
programs like Toon Boom, Anime Studio and Adobe Flash, users can
create homegrown films with a little effort and ingenuity. However,
in the context of web design, SWFs have become quite a bane when you
are working to set up an easily accessible site, and even the most
skilled of web developers will discourage you against them – with a
number of reasons for their case.
SEO visibility
When using Flash movies in
your site, a search engine’s tracking spiders will usually miss out
on the page’s information because the movies or navigation bars
mask the other site links. When there’s little information to work
with, the search engine usually drives the site lower in the order of
results.
Reporting
When web marketing experts
audit a site’s analytics, compiling the data will be difficult
because the presence of Flash materials cannot fully present needed
details. They include the pages the visitor came from, which pages
they visited in the subject website, and the last page they checked
out before leaving.
User confusion
Sometimes, Flash movies are
nothing more than decorations for the site. A number of experts say
that their presence denies users some needed functionality, like
bookmarking a section or highlight copying data.
If you still want to use
Flash films, you will need to consult you developer on where they can
be used effectively without being a distraction.
