Single Page Website Templates: Effective or not.. .?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         


What is a Single Page Website?

A single page website has only one HTML page. When we  navigate links, the user jumps to that particular  section.  There are many languages like Javascript, CSS, Jquery, JSON used.

I saw many single page websites with great themes & features. Now a days single page website appreciated for blog & other landing pages.  But if your website has many pages with different topics, then I think it best to skip this method and go the traditional way.

 


One Page Websites Can Confuse Users

To keep visitors on a website, you need to make website content and navigation easy.  You can’t expect visitors to think through cute design to get to where they want to go or to locate information they need Real websites include multiple pages designed around a users’ needs and the website owner’s goals. Hire dedicated developers to design your website user friendly and use hierarchical structure to redirect user on particular pages.

 

When Single Page Website?

For websites that are tightly focused on a single topic and don’t have a ton of content, a Single Page website can work nicely. the Single Page approach seemed appropriate in that case.

One Page Site Can down Your SEO

Single page website technology moving fast & give cool new look  to display website pages.
In traditional website, there are many pages having their respective title, meta tag & descriptions but in single page website only one title tag, meta tag & descriptions. This is negative aspect according to SEO. To get top 10 ranking in Google it's necessary to optimize your site properly and use hierarchical url structure.


SEO Competition for Ranking

SEO is a page-by-page competition for ranking and when developing your website architecture, it’s best practice to limit each page to a single topic.

SEO Competition 


With Single Page Websites You Have Only a Single Title Tag and Meta Description Tag

These two tags are probably the single most important on-page SEO elements, conveying to the search engines the EXACT topic of each page. They are also displayed on a SERP (Search Engine Results Page) when one of your pages is listed:

One Page Websites Can Derail SEO Efforts

If SEO is important to the heath of your website and your company, I highly suggest you leave single page websites. They don’t need SEO to survive, but you do, so stick with technology that is known to work.

SEO Factors 


A Single Page Website:  One Page in Google Index
Search engines will index all the pages of your website, providing multiple opportunities for your site to come up in searches. When your site consists of only one page, a single page is exactly what you’ll have indexed.

Single Page Website: Yes or No?

Personally, I really love many of the Single Page websites I’ve seen. It’s a visually appealing effect and if your site fits the appropriate Single Page profile, it’s a fine way to go.

But if your site has numerous topics and sub-topics, then I think it best to skip this approach and go the convention route of individual pages.

Loading time of single page website is less than traditional website. So loading time point of view it is better than other.
