    HI can you explain why this slider is good or bad for SEO. I"m been reading online and people are saying sliders are bad for SEO. I'm hoping you can explain why your slider is not bad for SEO. Also what settings do you recommend for the best SEO. Thank you

    Hi Benjamin Mooney

    Not sure i am an expert in SEO that i can tell you if its good or bad . But mainly i think its good for 2 reasons.

    1. it uses regular text layers for content

    2. it makes users stay on your page longer which is one of the most important factor in my opinion for seo .

    cheers

    Thank You how do you add alt tag to an image you are using as a background image on a slide?

    Hi, there is no need to add alt tag to divs.

    Well in my case I was wanting to use as a slideshow for showcase some of my photography so I thought I should have alt tags i'm guessing there is no way to do it :(

    No, sorry. those are background images without alt tags. Alt tags added only to img, not to divs.
