Over the past 13 years that we've been in business, we've seen a lot of good web designs and a lot of bad ones. We've compiled a "Top 10 List" of the most common web design mistakes that we've seen, to hopefully educate customers when they're planning out their own web sites. This list isn't any kind of an official world-wide standard list, this is just a list of the top mistakes we've seen. The items in this list also appear in no particular order of importance, they all apply equally. This list also doesn't cover every possible mistake a person can make when planning their web site because there are thousands of ways to make a bad web site, and just as many ways to make a great web site. But, if you at least pay attention to this list when you are planning your own web site, this should keep you on the smart and sensible track and keep you from contributing to the ever growing list of web site disasters that continue to plague the internet. Take the time to listen to professional advise from people in the field who have seen what works and what doesn't. It'll make the difference between you having a successful web site, or one that potential customers and search engines avoid.
