So what? Did anyone ask these horrible website how they are doing?
Has anyone asked them if their visitors like the websites? Probably
not. What you have is some "usability" expert visiting sites and
telling us what THEY think is wrong with no regard to how profitable
that site is to the owner.

Sorry, examples from webpagesthatsuck are meaningless information
unless you speak to the owners of the sites and see if they are
profitable or not, and how their typical customers feel about the
site.

As anecdotal data I stand by my son's site. As soon as we went all
flash, traffic and profits both improved. Typical? Who knows, but
based on the work I get I would say yes. It is typical. At least in
the entertainment industry.

So keep telling me how much our sites sucks as my customers and I cry
about it all the way to the bank. And yes. In business it IS all
about money.
