| Design and frames
Frames are supposed to make navigation easier by keeping a part of a site constant, while opening links in another part.
However, frames have become a problem for web masters and users alike. There are numerous issues to consider:
Printing a document is harder
Bookmarking is problematic
Most search engines don't index them
Some people still use browsers that don't support frames
Say "No" to frames!
Frames make your life more difficult, so why use them? If you can avoid using frames, do so. This will save you a lot of headache. You won't have to worry about search engines being unable to index your site.
If you do use frames...
If you do decide to use frames, you will need to make an extra effort to be indexed by search engines. Most search engines
don't index content in frames. To deal with these engines, use the following tag:
<noframes> Most important information about your site and links to frame-free pages</noframes> |
