You should design your websites to give your visitors the greatest ease of use and the best impression. Most important of all is a welcoming experience. It doesn't matter if you had the greatest product in the whole world if your website is poorly done. Visitors will be driven off your website by the lousy design.
I'm not only talking about a good graphical design. A professional web design will be able to point out that there are many components which contribute to a good website design. Accessibility design, interface or layout design, user experience design and of course the most straightforward, which is graphic design.
Here are some features of the worst web designs I've come across. If anything on your site fits the criteria, you might want to take serious action!
1) Background music
Unless you are running a site which promotes a band, a CD or anything related to music, I would really advise you to stay away from putting looping background music onto your site. It might sound pleasant to you at first, but imagine if you ran a big site with hundreds of pages and everytime a visitor browses to another page on your site, the background music starts playing again. If I were your visitor, I'd just turn off my speakers or leave your site. Moreover, they just add to the visitors burden when viewing your site. Users on dial up connections will have to wait longer just to view your site as it is meant to be viewed.
2) Extra large/small text size
There is more to web design than purely graphics. User accessibility is a big part too! Your site should be legible and reasonably sized to enable your visitors to read it without straining their eyes. You will not sell anything no matter how good the content of your website if it's illegible
3) Popup windows
Popup windows are so blatantly used to display advertisements that in my mind, 90% of popup windows are not worth my attention. Imagine if you had a very important message to convey and you put it in a popup window that gets killed most of the time it appears on a visitor's screen. Your website loses its function immediately!
As a webmaster, your job is to make sure your website does what it's meant to do effectively. Don't let minor mistakes stop your site from functioning optimally!
