Featured topics in a website or blog are hard to miss. In a website, we either have rotating banners or carousels. In a blog, we’ll normally find carousels most likely powered by plugins – WordPress, woot! The idea is simple enough to interpret and hard to get wrong. But I was proven wrong, when I stumbled on this.
Nope, those are not banners – at least, I don’t believe they were suppose to be. They are suppose to be clickable topics for you to read more about.
As shocked as you, I couldn’t believe how a simple visual communication for featured topics was made into a marketplace like the screenshot. Sigh.
And, these aren’t static banners. They were animated banners! I thought I had traveled back in time when we used blink for all our text and no image was left not animated in a webpage. :P
Anyway, I’d really appreciate it if the company hired my Malaysia website design company to make things right. Because, this is definitely not even reader friendly.
Maybe you could email them and give a few suggestions. They might be waiting for someone to get the ball rolling.
LOL! Surprisingly, I was invited to propose something to them. But that’s for a subsidiary of theirs. So I’ll slowly make my way there. :)
