Non-Flash Websites vs. Flash Websites

On search engines, non-flash sites win every single time. It’s simple – they can’t read the text within the flash website and with SEO, content is king. Unless it’s a specific practical purpose (like flash is known for) like a multimedia game etc. it’s only good to use flash as a cherry on top of the sundae. Because we always focus on search engine optimization when building and overhauling websites, we do love flash used for certain elements sprinkled within your website, but we DO NOT build full flash websites. It’s cool – but not for your company’s pocket book. Your organic seo sales will plummet, instantly.

CMS-Driven Websites vs. Complete Custom-Coded Websites

It’s 2011 people! Websites need to have a great foundation as technology is moving and expanding so quickly. Today’s websites need to look great, be easy to use and simple to update, all the while performing countless tasks with speed and stability. Your website needs to be constantly evolving to stay on top of the ever-changing tech world. Using a CMS as a building foundation for your website will provide the stability, usability, flexibility and features you are “used to working with” nowadays on the web. We custom-code a lot of features within websites, but a completely custom-coded site has become outdated. The CMS open-source communities such as WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal have built a following and expert group alliance that spans hundreds of thousands of developers that are constantly communicating, creating patches, finding bugs, creating widgets and providing resources. It’s like having your own testing team working 24-7, worldwide. “GO CMS – OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE!”
