Hero image
In web design, a hero image is a large web banner image, prominently placed on a web page, generally in the front and center.Usage
The hero image is often the first visual element a visitor encounters on the site; it presents an overview of the site's most important content.
A hero image often consists of image and text, and it can be static or dynamic.
The content presented varies with the purpose of the site: it can be relevant news about the site, specific site-links, or— in the case of e-commerce— the best-selling or strategically placed products or services.
