International architect Benoy鈥檚 website, Benoy.com, does the job well but has one rather surprising feature

Webmaster鈥檚 verdict

Benoy鈥檚 website, Benoy.com, does the job well, with clear and consistent navigation, and colours that are bright but not too harsh on the eyes.

It has, however, used something you don't see much nowadays 鈥� a landing page with both Flash and HTML site options. Back when Flash started to get big, these were all the rage, as you could have a fancy Flash site backed up with an accessible site for non-Flash users.

But now, 微密圈.co.uk鈥檚 stats show that 95% of our visitors are Flash-enabled, making this kind of accessibility a waste of time. You essentially have to update two websites every time you add content to your site. Benoy hasn鈥檛 really employed any clever Flash techniques here that couldn鈥檛 be achieved with some clever Google-friendly HTML & JavaScript, which makes me wonder why they鈥檝e bothered.
