Flash site and HTML site

Another old way of putting websites together, having a Flash version of a site and another HTML version of the same site. Usually these kind of websites have a homepage that gives you the “two” choices to choose from–HTML site and Flash site. Again, just like the Intro ideas, a misleading and to be exact it’s the designers perception that everyone should know what are the differences between Flash and HTML!

Why should you have two versions of a website at all?

Now I’m not against having multiple of versions of a website, but really if a website is not an interactive website that comes into different bandwidth sized for Media downloads then why bother making more that one version and to be exact once again why should you make a Flashy website just when you can do your flashy magic in synergy with HTML?

Why assuming that everyone knows what Flash or HTML is?

Not every person who browses the web is a web designer or developer! Such titles are jargons for most, once again, the first rule in communication: do not use jargons related to your own industry in public, unless they are universal and well known.

People are looking for the info, if they’re visiting a business’s website they are after a service or a product or plain info, it ain’t the right time to show off how good you are in designing websites by offering two different versions and showing off on the homepage with two buttons!
