To get the best and most usable website I have decided to get information from Website Creator Jakob Neilson. He has put together a website with info on making usable and easily accessable websites, I looked at one page called 'The Top 10 Mistakes in Web Design'.
Summary:
'The ten most egregious offenses against users. Web design disasters and HTML horrors are legion, though many usability atrocities are less common than they used to be.'
The top 10 mistake which I read and took into consideration before the creation of my website are: (These are the headings followed by long paragraphs)
1. Bad Search
2. PDF Files for Online Reading
3. Not Changing the Color of Visited Links
4. Non-Scannable Text
5. Fixed Font Size
6. Page Titles With Low Search Engine Visibility
7. Anything That Looks Like an Advertisement
8. Violating Design Conventions
9. Opening New Browser Windows
10. Not Answering Users' Questions
