Yes, it is a terrible idea. First of all, practically
nothing on the Internet will have furigana because it's technologically impossible in HTML to do furigana.
Second, in the real world, furigana is really only used for "difficult" kanji.
Here is a scan of a page from the Asahi Shimbun:

Notice that there are no furigana at all. This is just a regular newspaper in Japan. Imagine what something not written for general readership would be like.
