Tom Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Splash pages are possibly one of the the worst inventions ever. Quote
Moderators Kyle Posted January 25, 2012 Moderators Report Posted January 25, 2012 lol! Why's that? Quote
Tom Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 They are useless; they provide no information, often deter visitors and from a usability point of view they're harmful. Funny actually, splash pages was something that came up in my lecture today (Hence my knowledge) Quote
James142 Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Depending on the actual page, I really don't care if a website has a splash page or not... it only takes an extra few seconds to click on the continue button Quote

Funny actually, splash pages was something that came up in my lecture today (Hence my knowledge) I agree, but what about user's language experience? They can select their language and go to the specifically language website? Quote

Put it at the top of the page, or if you're clever do it automatically based on their computer/browser language... if you're really going to duplicate your content, that is. Quote
Strider Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 I hate splash pages, mainly for the fact, they are outdated, and add nothing to the site. I nearly always leave a web site if it has a splash page. They are often not made properly too, often no clear place saying click here to go to main site. You have to go looking for it. Leave it, you wont need it. Quote
freshJet Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 I like them But users don't. Therefore I don't use them. Legend Air and flyOcean use them. Quote
