7. 12 REASONS NOT TO HAVE A FLASH
W E B S I T E

8. BAD FORSEARCH ENGINES
(SEO)
REASON #1:

9. REASON #2:
LIMITED
MOBILE VIEWING

10. REASON #3:
NO LINKING OR
BOOKMARKING
Every Page Of A Flash Website Has The Exact Same Web Ad-
dress, Or Url. In Other Words, No Matter Which Page You're
Viewing On A Flash Website, The Url Is Exactly The Same. On
Normal Websites, You Can Bookmark And Link Directly To Spe-
cific Pages Using Unique Urls.

REASON #4:
NO BACK
BUTTON
Suppose someone is clicking their way through your website,
finds themselves on a page they didn't mean to click to, and
decides they want to go back. This is where the back button
comes in on a normal website. On a Flash website, the back
button is either disabled altogether, or it will take them to the
website they were viewing before yours! Eventually, they'll have
to figure out how to get back another way, such as .....

12. REASON #5:
POOR DESIGN
STANDARDS
The bells and whistles that come with Flash almost always
result in gratuitous design abuse when it comes to websites.
Successful webmasters understand that the Internet is a
standards-based system. Navigation goes here, content goes
there, a click does this, a drag does that, and so on.

13. REASON #6:
CONTENT LOADING...

14. REASON #7:
SPLASH AND
INTRO PAGES
Splash pages are those annoying intro screens that you often
see before clicking "skip intro" or "enter here" to access the real
website.

15. REASON #8:
BASIC TEXT
FUNCTIONS BROKEN
On Flash websites, it's impossible to make use of basic text
functions like copy-and-paste, finding text, or changing text size
to improve readability. There's no right-click menu to facilitate
these tasks, and keyboard shorcuts don't work with Flash.

16. REASON #9:
POOR USABILITY
STANDARDS
While most of these twelve reasons involve the usability failures
of Flash websites, this section specifically addresses how Flash
designers typically break or ignore standard user interface ele-
ments of the Web.

17. REASON #10:
BANDWIDTH AND
CPU DEMANDS
Flash websites can bring older computers to a crawl, and they
can take much longer to load with sub-broadband Internet con-
nections.

18. REASON #11:
DEPENDENCY ON
3RD-PARTY PLUGINS
Most people forget that Flash is a proprietary technology owned
by Adobe. In fact, Flash websites can't even be displayed with-
out Adobe's free Flash Player plugin.

19. REASON #12:
ADOBE DOESN'T
EVEN USE IT
That's right! The very company that makes, markets, and dis-
tributes Flash doesn't have a Flash website! Perhaps because
they know its limitations, but we'll let the irony of this fact speak
for itself.

20. BUT WHAT IF
I REALLY WANT FLASH?

21. Ok So You’re Dead Set On Having Some Flash On Your Site. My First Question Is
Going To Be “Why?” I Don’t Do Things “Just Because I Wanted It”,
If You Can Answer That “Why?” Question Successfully, I May Consider It, But
There Isn’t Really A Whole Lot That Most Sites Need That Can’t Be Done With
Alternative Methods To Flash. So The Bottom Line, Basically, Is If You Want Flash,
You Might Want To Look Elsewhere. But If You Want A Website That Looks Good
And Works On As Many Devices As Possible,
I BUILD WEBSITES THAT HAVE PURPOSE AND
PRODUCE RESULTS.

22. WE ARE NOT “FLASH” HATERS. INFACT
WE LOVE FLASH, IT IS AN AWESOME
THING ADOBE HAS CREATED FOR WE
PEOPLE.
BUT WE ALONG WITH OTHER TECHIE
THINK FLASH AIN’T THAT GOOD FOR
THOSE BUSINESSES WHICH HAVE PUR-
POSE AND WANTS TO PRODUCE RE-
SULTS.
IT IS BEST SUITED FOR THOSE BUSINESS
WHICH DOESN’T CARE ABOUT GENERAT-
ING BUSINESS VIA ONLINE. THEY ARE
THEMSELVES A BRAND.
WE
TOO
LOVE
FLASH
