There are some extremely annoying mistakes you can make when it comes to your webpage design. This is sure to not only frustrate users but turn them off your product or service. Here are some of the irritating errors you should steer clear from.

Opening New Browser Windows

Opening up new browser windows is like a vacuum cleaner sales person who starts a visit by emptying an ash tray on the customer’s carpet. People don’t want you to pollute their screens with any more windows, particularly since current operating systems have miserable window management.

Not Supplying Enough Info or Answering Users’ Questions

Users on the web are highly goal-driven. They don’t tend to play around and they visit sites because there’s something they want to accomplish — it could be using your service or buying your product.

The ultimate failure of a website is to fail to provide the information users are looking for when they are there looking for it.

Sometimes the answer is simply not there and you lose the sale because users have to assume that your product or service doesn’t meet their needs if you don’t tell them the specifics.

Other times the specifics are buried under a thick layer of market jargon and bland slogans. The thing is nobody has the time to read pages and pages of information on something they are not looking for and in the end this info might as well have not been there to begin with.

Never leave out or forget a pricing list. It’s endlessly frustrating to see something you want and it takes intense effort just to see if you can afford it.

Knowing the price is key; it lets users differentiate among products and click through to the most relevant ones.
