The last element worth discussing here is a home page slider. Although most corporate websites are not about the graphics, this single visual element is often added. Animated sliders make any website seem more alive and attractive to the visitor. For a corporate site, the slider can present photos from events, individual announcements, product offers, or contact details, as well as a number of other things.
Some themes will come with a slider functionality built-in right from the get-go. If they don't, you can always get a plugin to handle the job. The only downside is that most slider plugins are not free. Among those that are free, I can point out these two, as follows:
- Master Slider: https://wordpress.org/plugins/master-slider/
- Nivo Slider: https://wordpress.org/plugins/nivo-slider-lite/
In general, sliders are not a mandatory thing for corporate websites, but they might improve user experience, so they're probably worth a try.
