Website Design Mistakes

Javascripts Avoid including useless javascripts such as status bar scrollers, title scrollers, prompts or alerts, clocks, and mouse cursor effects. The best bet would be to avoid anything that could distract visitors from content.

Hiding HTML source HTML was not meant to be hidden. Anybody can read a website''s HTML source, and copy it. Programs that "scramble" or "encrypt" HTML will probably cause it to be invalid.

Hard to spot links Links should stand out to a visitor while they browse a website. Avoid making links the same color as text, or removing the underline.

Disabling right click This is usually implemented to prevent image copying. The problem is that it breaks a website''s navagation. What if a visitor wanted to do other things with the right click menu such as go back, go forward, or bookmark a page?

Frames Search engines and visitors do not like frames. Search engines will index pages inside the frameset that include keywords, breaking navigation for visitors when they click through. Also, visitors can not bookmark a specific page inside a frameset.
