I'm creating the website of a music band. The band would like to have a music player that remains fixed while you browse the pages, a common problem.
Before you realize I wanted to know which technique is best is: - Use ajax calls to update the content but keep the player fixed - Use the system with the frames, so hated?
you would use that technique for a good SEO ranking?
To use Iframe is always a bad SEO practice. To just keep the player fixed you can use CSS (in particular use the position: absolute or position: fixed). Anyway, as a final suggest, I advice to not start the music when the visitor arrives on your website. It is not a bad SEO practice but it is really annoying.
