Frequently asked questions
What does "above the fold" mean?
It is the part of the page visitors see before scrolling. It should say clearly what the page is about and what to do next, and load fast.
Why is a lazy-loaded hero image bad?
The hero image is often the Largest Contentful Paint element. Lazy-loading tells the browser to wait, so the page looks slow and LCP gets worse.
Are sliders bad for SEO?
Sliders are not penalised, but they add weight and scripts, slow the first screen and hide most messages. A single strong hero usually works better.
