Flash or not?

[techkid]

Hello

do you like to use flash for your website or not. I dont like to use more flash as it loads so slower.

In addition to the loading time, it is not SEO friendly. And Flash Player is also needed, otherwise site would not load.

Flash is nice but like Freezer stated, "Its not SEO friendly." I personally would not recommend useing flash on a site until it is well developed and known, at that point I think it would ok.

Thanks!

I don't have a fast connection so nothing makes me flee a webpage faster than seeing Flash loading. Never mind not being SEO friendly, it's not user friendly either if your connection is slow. For anyone running Flash that checks their stats and sees visitors leaving within seconds and is scratching their head over why, that could be the reason.

It depends on what type of site you are making, if you are making a music or entertainment site I will say use flash but for making dynamic fast loading site dont use flash.

Flash should be used in correct context and used with regard to the user experience.

Flash website provide more interactivity.I think it is good to you flash as a part in your website rather than making whole flash website. You can use flash for galleries or hosting games and when you have huge bandwidth.

it depends a lot on the country that I or my clinets are targeting. There is not much point in using a lot of flash in a site that will target people who are using dial up
