A slider may be an incredible way to do everything from providing a great above the fold call to action to keeping a user on your site an extra few seconds to boost SEO. Let’s take a closer look at this trending website feature, so you'll decide if it is the correct fit for your site.

Before diving in, let us first talk about some basics of sliders.

What is a slider?

It is a slide show of images that appears on the website. 

Benefits of having a slider on an e-commerce website:

Visual

Users love stunning imagery, and this gives you a chance to provide it without making a user scroll down through a gallery.

Hold Attention

Once users see a slider, they will usually hang around to see all the slides. This adds to how long a user is on the site..

SEO

When a user stays on your site longer, this indicates to search engines that the site is engaging. Therefore, a slider may help boost your SEO.

Call to Action [CTA]

A Slider provides you with the opportunity to produce multiple CTAs above the fold (meaning the user doesn't have to scroll down to see it).
