What not to do
This
list is for the well
intentioned website owners,
although they bug us more
than they will ever know. So
please take this advise and
fix your site!!
Times have changed nobody
wants blinking and noises on
websites anymore!
Common errors that
webmasters make.
1.
Winking, blinking, flashing,
bouncing, rolling,
jumping, twisting graphics.
I came to your site
because something attracted
me to it. But, how can I
concentrate on your offer,
with all that distraction?
2. Text, or graphics
marching across my screen.
I didn't come to your site
to see how clever you
were at web design. If I
want to see a traveling
marquee, I'll go to a
theater.
3. Your site runs way off my
screen, and I have to
scroll back and forth to
read your offer. No, I'm
not lazy, I just don't want
to wear out my 'scroller'.
4. Long, long paragraphs,
that not only have 150
sentences, but run clear
across the screen. Would
be much easier to read if
you broke it up into many
paragraphs, and put into a
table that is only half
the screen width.
5. I don't think I'm blind,
but how the heck do
you read red text on a pink
background? Or dark
blue on a black background?
6. Wow, you must be making a
pile of money, with
all those affiliate links
you have. Are they REALLY
that good? Can't make up my
mind which one to look
at, so I guess I'll just
have to leave.
7. Gee, can I REALLY make
$5,000 a week, in only 2
weeks? Seems real good, but
it sounds so exaggerated
I think I'll just leave for
now, AND THINK ABOUT IT...
Maybe!
8. Sorry, but before your
site even finished loading,
you bombarded me with MUSIC.
It really didn't do a
thing for me...except make
me leave...immediately!
(I have my own radio).
9. Now that's going too far!
When I clicked on your
site, a pop-up jumped out at
me. That's not too bad,
but when I clicked on one of
your links, I got ANOTHER
pop-up. And when I clicked
OUT of your site, guess
what?
ANOTHER pop-up. Now you've
gone and done it, because if
I see another of your ads,
do you really think I'll
visit your site again?
