Frames:
- An HTML technique that allows two or more pages to display in one browser window. Many search engines had trouble indexing websites that used frames, generally only seeing the contents of a single frame.
When internet connection speeds were a lot slower than they are today, frames also prohibited visitors with slow connections or older software to stick around a website. A lot of web savvy internet users now have much faster connections and frames aren’t as big of a problem for loading purposes.
