Heavy Graphics

Too many graphics cause increase in duration in which the web page loads. Your goal should be to create clean, safe and light pages.

Poor Color Choices.

Color of your website should be pleasant. it should not pinch the visitor and make him uncomfortable. You don’t want to turn people away just because they have trouble reading the text on your site. Choose a set of colours that suits your website and go fo it. Do your research!

If I need to find how and where to click, I am gone. So would be every other visitor. Check you site’s navigation and all the links occasionally.

Stale, Not Updated

Your website should be updated regularly. you need to modify with the times and with any other change that reflects a change in your mission. Adding new products and content is a sure way to update your site.

Nice tips :) For graphics I always try to stay under 200kb for the homepage, subpages can be larger. If a client can’t afford high speed, they can’t afford SEO ;)
