Thanks for your post comments, I appreciate it.

I think that one of the reasons why people tend to “over cook” their websites is because they get seduced by the technology.

They see other websites with these flashing, dancing and pulsating bells and whistles, think they’re a good thing and add them to their own sites.

But most of the time I’d say that it’s just people not understanding how to communicate visually, just because they don’t have that education.

Give them the education and it can all be fixed, but with so many new people coming online every second it’s an impossible task, so it becomes a process of survival of the fittest.

Those that don’t know fall by the way side leaving those in the know reaping the rewards (over time).

Just keep it simple, because as a great copywriter once said to me “simplicity sells!”.

Great post. What I’ve noticed many people are now doing (bloggers included) is having an entrance pop-up, whether site-related (subscribe to my feed! welcome to my site!) or an ad (click here to skip this ad!) Well, they’ve pretty much guaranteed I’m not going to read their sites – nothing grinds me more than something interrupting what I’ve set out to read.
