A hero header is a banner or eye-catching image added just below a website header. Since graphics are a core part of gaming, including a hero header can help grab a visitor’s attention from the start. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can display multiple images using a hero slider<\/a> design. Also, consider adding a CTA (call to action) button to simplify navigation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
