SEO: Is a homepage video a good idea?
Posted: Thu Apr 12, 2018 11:15 am
Hi there. This is possibly more of a personal view question than, but I think it touches on SEO too.
We are looking at replacing a 3-image slider with a video from iStock.
Each slide has for a different page within the website, so the alt tags are not relevant to the keywords for the homepage.
The video would be embedded in the header, rather than a "play" Embed Youtube iframe.
I Want to know:
a) are these sorts of videos good for SEO (or make no difference)
b) your view of a video that plays. This is one that is not erratic or "funny on the eyes".
Thanks.
