Business Websites should not use a slider carousel
Estimated reading time: 1 min
We’ve been researching sliders on website home pages for a client. His designer has come up with two website layouts and one includes a slider.

My instincts say “don’t do it” but I need justification. My search shows up four great articles – note most of them recommend alternatives and all of them say that sliders are OK in some circumstances. Many of the alternatives still have motion and some incorporate sliders in different positions on the page.
Make your own mind up.
