Macromedia Flash Design: Flash Banners

Proper use of Flash with websites can add a new dimension to website presentation and improve the useability and user experience of any website. However, flash must be used wisely and implemented with caution, with respect to search engine optimization and website load time.

Flash banners offer a way to present information to visitors, from subtle artistic displays to strong sales messages.

Flash banners also present a means to deliver information to visitors that are not indexed by the search engines -- and in one 'static' position. This can be a useful tool when trying to balance on-page SEO content ( such as page length and density of words used ) while still presenting site visitors with a complete sales message.

This page is loaded with Flash for demonstration purposes and may take quite some time to load. The original banners have been designed to fit seemlessly in the background of the original websites, and not this web page.
