What Are other people using in replacement for sliders?
-
Hello, Moz Community! I am currently trying to replace a slider on our client's site. Sliders, in my opinion, are awful, they slow load times and just don't convey a solid message. I am using Wordpress and the visual composer plugin. Any ideas are really appreciated even they may seem a bit much, if I don't know how to do it I will figure it out. I apologize as well if this isn't the appropriate place for this type of question.

Hey, George! Thanks for the response, I am just at the point of wanting them gone, the crusade has begun! Thank you for the full-width idea. I am still a BIG Noobie to all of this, so any help is appreciated. Thank you!!

Thank you, Donald! I honestly didn't know the engagement window was so small. I will really consider this and apply it. I appreciate the response!

Thank you so much, Martin! I really do appreciate the help. This article was actually very helpful!

Well my personal slider preference is https://smartslider3.com/ it's light, it's groovy and it's free.
On the other hand, if you are an anti-stlider crusader then a full width image with a strong call to action will do the trick.

A powerful call to action should be used. You have about 8 seconds to appeal to the visitor and get them to engage with the brand. What you is present above the fold is everything.

IMG TITLE no longer used in Wordpress?
Err, when did this happen? Although you can still enter a Title in the WP image library, when inserting into a post the Title tag is not implemented. Alt text is there OK but not Title. There was a plugin around that restored this basic seo functionality but it's no longer available. I mean - honestly!

Using rel="nofollow"
Hello, Quick question really, as far as the SERPs are concerned If I had a site with say 180 links on each page - 80 above suggested limit, would putting 'rel="nofollow"' on 80 of these be as good as only having 100 links per page? Currently I have removed the links, but wereally need these as they point to networked sites that we own and are relevant... But we dont want to look spammy... An example of one of the sites without the links can be seen here whereas a site with the links can be seen here You can see the links we are looking to keep (at the bottom) and why... Thanks
