Hiring a Freelance Flash Programmer
Make the right business connections in the world’s
fastest-growing freelance marketplace.
As online technology progresses, web surfers seek more than the old boring static web pages. The majority of people who visit your site want interaction. They want to see and feel how your product or service will help them. By incorporating flash programming into your online presence, you will be able to grab the attention of your visitors and convert them into paying customers or clients. But to do this, you need to hire a qualified flash programmer who understands your goals and can translate your ideas into highly usable features which will improve user experience rather than hinder it.
When to Use Flash Programming
As a general rule, flash should be incidental to your website's functionality. You don't want to lose business because a portion of your customers can't place orders through your flash-based order wizard or cannot navigate your flash-based menu system. A flash programmer can enhance your customer's experience through product presentations, but this does not mean you should not still include photographs and text descriptions of your products. Not only do a percentage of web surfers not use flash, search engines do not pick up flash, so you'll still need to use textual content as your main way of attracting site visitors through natural search. Keep the goals of your site visitors in the front of your mind when deciding whether or not to use a flash programmer for your website. If your website exists to provide information, your site visitors will most likely be turned off by having to sit through a flash intro before being able to access the information they're there to find. Make sure flash complements your goals.
Qualities to Look for in a Flash Programmer
The biggest hindrances of flash are slow loading times and poor usability. You want to incorporate flash programming to add value to your website, not to detract from it. Your flash programmer should have a very high standard of practice. He should be proficient in using flash tools to optimize load times, and he should be able to effectively write programs that can be easily understood and used by the common web surfer. He should be able to effectively determine whether a flash design or application is the best approach or when to go another way.

"I took a chance one day when I was flush and sent a few bucks to gain access to the Go Freelance Professional Edition. Since then, I've edited a sales letter, a follow-up letter, an 11-page Web site, and a brochure. I'm 'on call' to do pinch-hit proofreading for a medical newsletter editor in Florida ..and I've landed a gig editing a new Canadian magazine coming out this fall. All this from taking a chance on Go Freelance."
