Remove the Welcome Page

I guess you also saw a thing like this: you load a site and all you see is a picture saying something like "Welcome to this cool website.” To come to the website, you need to click a link somewhere on the Welcome page.

Honestly, I hate Welcome Pages. Most Internet users hate them. And, the Robot hates them, too! Yes, even though he’s a patient guy, welcome pages are getting on his nerves. And what about normal people, huh?

Making a visitor come to a Welcome Page is as weird as what I imagined now: say, you’re going to Las Vegas, but before you come there, you have to stay for a day in a tiny place called “Welcome to Las-Vegas City” City, with no alcohol, no women and no casinos — and only then you can go to Las Vegas itself. Who would do that?!?

To cut it short, Welcome Pages only do harm to your website sales and irritate users. So if you have a Welcome Page and there’s a way to kill it, don’t wait to do that.

DO IT NOW!

If you have a Welcome page, and it’s possible to remove it — remove it!
