Post - What do you hate to see on websites?


I hate getting to a website and being slowed by a Flash entry page or videos of people prattling on about their product or program, where some well edited text would be more efficient and faster to read.

I don't care how fancy your designer can make your site. I want to get right to the shopping or the information that I have in mind.

I certainly agree that I seriously dislikes websites with flash intros, or websites that are flash only.
There are a few exceptions like some movie sites, but I mostly tends to go away failry quick if I see a flash site...

Other things I'm not a huge fan of are news sites that are so packed with ads that it's almost impossible to see the news articles..

Sites that are too flashy get on my nerves too. Many of them are impressively made , but make navigation difficult. I also can't stand those advertisements that take you away from the site you were looking at. And then you have to click "Skip this ad" to go back to where you were. Actually, I don't like any sites that have too many ads. Some are perfectly fine, but don't have more ads than content.

I don`t hate anything on a website but the popups.Every site that has one is sure to lose me as a visitor.Also i kinda hate site`s with a black background.

Pop ups, Banner ads, large images, and frames. The list is pretty long but these are the main ones. These days too many google ads are also one of the worst turn offs.
